Need Help...

Please.... help my decide which picture to use for my Christmas card this year! I am driving myself crazy (my OCD coming out) trying to decide.....Thanks so much.

Leaves...

I LOVE this time of year....The leaves of all different colors and sizes are so... pretty. Will loves the FALL too as you can see from these pictures. He was so excited for me to take a few pictures of him in his favorite tree with all the red and yellow "leafs."

Soccer Star

Will completed his first season of soccer this year. His best buddy Matthew was on the team with him and the boys had a {need I say} "GREAT" time hangin' with each other out there. At times they reminded me of myself and my friend Melissa out on the feild in PE at school. Just chatting away and NOT paying one bit of attention to the actual game.....It's easy to get distracted when you're on the same team as a good friend. I also have to remind myself that he's only 5 years old! It is called FUNDEMENTAL sports for a reason, I guess.....

Fun.

I have one word that describes my boys relationship with their Daddy---FUN. Can you see the sheer delight in Dargan's face? There's nothing like playtime with Daddy....

Warming sensation???

I came across these old pictures of little Dargan from the summer of 2007 while cleaning off my camera's internal memory. It's been so... cold this week I thought maybe seeing these pictures would help warm up the situation. Did you see the ROLLS on that baby? I wish he was still pudgy like that......

Guess who has a birthday today????

Betcha can't guess whose celebrating a birthday today on November 18th??? The VERY important Mickey Mouse!!! And he's 80 years old today... And the reason I know this? I can't remember - Momnesia again... Oh, well let's wish Mickey a very happy Birthday eventhough he is sometimes referred to as "The Greedy Rat." Anyone who has been to Disney lately knows exactly what I mean. Happy 80th Mickey --We LOVE you!!!

Lil' Artist

Will has become quite the little artist this year. He can't get enough drawing, writing letters and words! I have been saving ALMOST every peice of artwork he brings home from school plus the ones he does for me at home....It's so hard to decide which ones to keep and which ones to discard. Does anyone have any advice for me regarding this? I know -- I'm just too sentimental, right?

Good Friends......

We celebrated my...dare I say it...39th Birthday this weekend. My actual Birthday is today, November 16th but the party was last night. The afternoon began with 10 adults and 13 children piling into our house since it began raining at precisley the exact time the party was to begin! What are the chances of that???? We didn't let the rain put a damper on the party though...The "beeritas" were quite a hit and the hubby's Melvin's bar-be-que sandwiches and cole slaw were great!!!! We toped off the night with a yummy carrot cake and chocolate delight dessert!!!! I feel VERY blessed to have such great friends to celebrate my birthday!!!! And the best part-I'm NOT even hung over today.....

Beerita Recipe
