'Tis the Season
Monday, November 16, 2009 at 08:38AM There is absolutely a direct relationship between how busy I get and how much I blog. I am busy. Not too busy, however, to put up our Christmas trees.

Be back soon. Really I will.

Monday, November 2, 2009 at 06:00AM Smell my feet. Why do stinky feet always make kids laugh? We had a fun Halloween like always. I really don't think that an event involving candy could possibly go wrong anyway. I've mentioned before that we live on acreage. Trick or treating in our neighborhood would involve a car or lots of walking. So our neighborhood has Trunk or Treating. We head to our clubhouse and park in the lot. Those that are way cool decorate their car trunks and we walk from trunk to trunk. Well, it works. The kids had fun and got way too much candy. We usually go to the grands' house where we do the traditional house to house ring the door bell routine. We'll have to see what the girls choose to do next year.

Ever since Natalya was born over 8 years ago, we've almost always dressed as a family for Halloween. Vienne chose to be Dorothy sometime last year so that meant we had to follow suit. Natalya sorta got stuck with being the Lion.

She was a real good sport but has requested that she be allowed to chose her own costume next year. She says she doesn't even want to do what the rest of us do. I'd say we had a pretty good run lasting 8 years. Who knows. She may see how much fun we are having and join us anyway.

The family. Daddy was Tin Man and I was Scarecrow. I think we look pretty cute.

And the trunk. That's a tornado in case you can't tell. There be lots of tricks and treats this Monday. Go see.
Well, I'm ready to move on. The Halloween dec will soon be packed away and I'm taking Christmas out. Don't be a hater, I love Christmas decorations and I love seeing them for more than a month.
Saturday, October 31, 2009 at 03:10PM I have a few friends that I've had a real long time. One of those friends is Heather. We went to college together. She was in my wedding. She actually is the one who introduced me to my husband! So she surely holds a special place in my heart. I can't believe that her children are so adorable! Just kidding, I knew she'd make lovely babies.

I just could not get over her son Baylor's curls. Curls like no boy should ever have. I would have given a foot for curls like this.

Baby girl Landry is the spitting image of Heather. So sweet and just adorable.
It had been really rainy but we put on our boots and played in the mud.

Cutiepie for sure.


Thanks, Heather, for letting me photo your kiddos.

Some lovely shots of my girl on this once again gloomy, wet, rainy day. Ask and ye shall receive? Really. It was such a dry summer, we begged for rain, water wells were going dry. Hmm, now we are flooded. Oh, well. It's supposed to be nice this Saturday for Halloween so I guess I'll take it for today.
