Hello??

Hello?!? Do I have any followers left? Where have I been? I'm not sure. I have no excuse, and believe me, I tried to think of one. We got through Christmas and the boys' 2nd birthday and David and I even turned a year older in between there. David tried to gain 2 years as he was telling people he was going to turn 38 instead of 37. Here are some pictures we took along the way. Carson

Cameron loves to dress up!

They love their sunglasses!

Before the zoo--they were not excited at first!

Happy Birthday!

I like the box.

A new computer!

Presents, presents!

More presents....

Lunch time!

Birthday cupcakes!

On their actual birthday (before haircuts!)

Breakfast on thier birthday.

Cameron and oven mits. Please don't laugh at my burnt oven mits, they may or may not have caught on fire-not once, but twice-while I was "cooking".

Yes, this is dangerous. I am well aware. That is all I will say about that.

Bathtime!

Carson and the nebulizer. Yeah, he hates it.

It's snowing!

Don't we look like angels??

Christmas Eve

Well, again, I will tell you I will try to do better with my blog postings. We are looking forward to Spring and getting out of the house more. Stay tuned!

Fall Fun!!

As far as I am concerned, Fall is definitely the best time of year! Pumpkins, pretty leaves, cooler weather (others with naturally curly hair also appreciate this, I'm sure), and Judy's carmel apple pie!! Here are pictures of a few of our adventures. The boys at the pumpkin patch. Pumpkins are called "pump-eez" at our house.

Our front steps--nobody was cooperating!

I decided that since I am not working (and I don't know how long David is going to let that go on), that a trip to Michigan to visit the Berarducci's. So the boys and I jumped in the car and drove all day. It went better than I had thought so that was great. We stayed almost a week and got in plenty of shopping (good thing the boys aren't old enough to object yet), a visit to Anthony and Mia's school, an outing to Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park, Anthony's soccer game, the pumpkin patch, and some family photos! All in all, a great time!

Back at home, driving with Dad. This is all VERY safe!

Batman times two--Happy Halloween!

Playing in the leaves, evidently it isn't as fun as I remembered it to be....

Update on the house--still creeping along on the house in Britt. Our most recent goal has been to be in there by Christmas, not sure that will happen. They are there drywalling as I type this, and hopefully the kitchen cabinets can start going in in a couple of weeks. Then flooring, which David thinks he is going to attempt himself. Not sure how that is going to go since he is hardly ever home. I told him we should get more people involved in that project so we could get it done in a weekend--any volunteers??

Make way for the Smiley Train!

The boys rode "The Smiley Train" on Monday. Kanawha held their annual town celebration and had a pretty nice parade. Cameron enjoyed picking up the candy, but he would chew the end of the wrapper instead of trying to take it off. All he got was tootsie rolls, which he didn't get to eat any of. You have to be pretty fast to get any of the chocolate candy before Grandpa Wayne gets it!!
