I managed to complete my first Halloween swap since last year. YEAH!
These two on the right not only had their baby (second child for DD) but also celebrated their 2nd wedding anniversary this week. AND it was a Happy Birthday to Amanda (oldest DD) on Sept. 11....I will tell you she is 25 but I'm not tellin just how old I might be.


It has been a challenging week, busy and full of lots of re-arranging. I have to catch you all up on what the past year has held for us. This week was a visit from the newest "babe" addition, Ellen Grace. She has my grandmother's first name (her great-grandmother) who loved every child that came along and was full of hugs & love for everyone. A tiny bit of a baby, weighing 5 lb. 11 oz. and 18 1/2" long. In fact this is her at one month old now in the arms of Aunt Cassidy (all of 9 years old).

Here is Cassidy healthy at a picnic this summer,but this week she caught the illnesses going around and it quickly became pneumonia that she is recovering from.




Here is her little sister (her self-made twin) Olivia. Since Cassidy has been ill and missed a week of school (all but one day) Mommy bribed her with a couple dollars to get her to go to school while her one sister had to stay home as they miss each other during the day. Lets hope the 14-yr old does not get word of this because her budget is much bigger...and tell her if she sees this, her photo is coming next post!

This guy had a birthday this week, Happy Birthday Honey!! How come we can't have a day off for our B-day anyways?? These days this guy is always working, working, working. Trying his best to work 3 day regular job and start a business selling custom turntable bases. (don't make me tell y'all what a record player is now, they came right before your cd's, okay? at least that's what I hear, wink,wink)
Don't worry I have done lots more than the above including working, paying bills, house work, baby snuggling, exercising, worrying, yellin at this computer that did not let me post pics in like forever (that's right, I have been at this computer Forever!!)AND more boring stuff. Hugs and blessings for the weekend! Carol
