Yeah, We're Still Here

We have been SO busy with football, going swimming and to Chuck E. Cheese's before school started, going back to school, preparing for Claire's birthday party, packing for a weekend trip, taking a field trip to the EMS and hospital, cheerleading practice, visiting relatives, hanging out with friends, going to church, having computer problems, and did I mention FOOTBALL?? It has taken over our lives. So, when all this settles down I'll get back to my blog. And I promise to have pictures of all of these events as well!

Adorable Girl




A more than willing model for Aunt Betty.

Kate - One Year




Sally



Did you ever have a favorite, can't sleep without, comfort bringing, blame your messy room on, fun to dress and undress, make up stories about, always your best friend kind of stuffed animal? Yeah, that's Sally.

My Football Lovin' Boy




Sam is obsessed with football right now. He loves to play it on the Wii, and he just started football practice this week for the youth league. I am less thrilled. Much less.

See, It Gets Better With Age!


The "Veil" shots turn into endearing little photos after age one...or maybe it is two.
Yeah, definitely by age six!

Attempts at the "Veil" shot...

Umm, I think it is slipping.

Yep, I was right. It was slipping.


Okay, that's better. Except I still do not approve of this contraption being on my head.

I am warning you people!

Ha! Got my way and my favorite blankie.
Life is good again!
I started this tradition with Claire (taking her picture each year in my wedding veil.) Her shots were pretty similar the first year but she has now grown to love it. I have the same hopes for Kate!!
