Rumors

For all of you who have been wondering what I have been up to the last 7 weeks, here it is. I have been directing the play Rumors by Neil Simon. It has been a challenge, but a fun one. The cast is so much fun, and they have been so much help. My family has really helped too with the girls, and then of course Andy, he has been very patient (so have my kids) . I am grateful for thier support in allowing me to do this thing I love so much. It has been good.

Fun with Grandpa & Paula

Sorry, I don't know how to rotate the picture, but look at those cheeks!
The Penquins at the aquarium. They were so cute.

Hanging out at the of the incline railway. Super Fun!

We had such a fun visit with Andy's parants. We went to Chatanooga, did a ton of shopping, ate out, and went to the Franklin Main Street Festival. It was a great visit. I am grateful they made the effort to come visit with us. The girls already miss them.

SPRING IS HERE...

Spring is here! I love the Spring. I love the weather, flowers, birds, and all the plants and animals that are awakening from the winter. It makes me ready to start over, and try to be better at the things I do.This is our Magnolia tree. It is so pretty. It smells so good. It is one of my favorite plants in our yard.

I'll post more "spring" pics from our yard when I can get the uploading to work.

The Kids Have the Camera

My girls have discovered the joy of photograghy. They love to take random samplings of their world and record it in picture. Here are some examples of this budding talent.




Our stairway, and gate. Inside a book on weather. Maybe its a favorite page?

Ellie with some light bedtime reading.

Ollie hanging out on the Pooh Bear Chair.

Family day at the TN Aquarium

Touching the sting rays.
Ruining our pants by sliding down this concrete wall.
Hannah is not so sure she likes to have a butterfly on her.
I have no idea why I added this picture?
This is what it would look like if we could raise our girls in a fishbowl. I don't think they would be this happy about it...neither would I.

Christmas

Here we are having a Freezing Fun time at ICE.
WIGS. The best gift, because being dramatic is so much better with a ton of hair!

It is about time to let you all know we've had a wonderful holidays season. The 3 older girls loved the Razor scooters that Santa brought, and Hannah loved her baby. Hope all of you had a great Christmas.

Happy Holidays

I love this picture!
Who needs clothes, right? In fact, as I rush to buy toys off lengthy Christmas lists, I look at this picture and think, "who needs toys?". Remember when life was so simple that even a plastic bag could provide hours of entertainment. Of course please remember to not make any hats, masks, ect. out of them.
Happy Holidays Everyone!
