Town Square Annual Pictures

Nana and Papa are up this weekend and we took a trip to the square to take our annual photos with the fall decorations. Kind of funny because they were stringing all the Christmas lights already. Hope you enjoy!!

The after picture....

Ok, after much demand. I promise I didn't hack all of the limbs off the left side, it just didn't have any leaves on that side except at the bottom and the top. Makes it look very strange. Hope I didn't kill it...

Big Tree and Big Girl

In Feb 2002, we took a trip to Disneyworld with the Marlars. Both of us brought home an orange tree that stood about 4-5 inches tall. We were so excited, we were going to have Forida oranges in our backyard!!!! Well, skip to 2007 and still no oranges (despite drastic measures to get our trees together to see if they needed cross pollination...apparently not). Anyway, despite no oranges, we do have a rether massive potted tree that needed to be brought indoors since the cold weather is suddenly upon us. I thought I would take a picture of the tree before I hacked at it to fit it inside. I am ashamed to take the after picutre, but here is the before picture. Just for reference, Linlee is 40 inches tall......
Now I just thought Linlee looked so grown up this morning I had to take pictures. Ignore the chocolate around her mouth, you can't see that when you are taking the picture...

Fall Picture

It is almost impossible for everyone to be looking at the camera and smiling at the same time!!! Lucy just wouldn't cooperate.....It was such a beautiful day on Saturday, I just had to get a pic.

Aquilla Homecoming

We took a last minute trip to my parents house for my home church's homecoming. We had a great time and suprised Nana and Papa.
This is Linlee being a "leaf princess".

It was such a beautiful day Sunday and we were dressed up so why not take pictures right?

Aww. Our growing family...mainly me..

Family visit

My brother and his wife April can up to visit this past weekend. It was a quick visit, but we had fun watching football and eating! The kids just loved it!!


I walked downstairs Saturday morning and could hear the kids but couldn't find them. They had crawled into the cabinets in my bedroom and made a "house". this is how I found them, in their bunkbeds.

Just Updates

So I have taken a week off from blogging, i am not the only one.....I have been having very bad pain in my lower right belly so last week, Conner and I went to the Dr. I thought it was a bladder infection. Turns out it was JUST round ligament pain. I had never really had that before with the other 2 or at least not for very long. This lasted for at least a week and OUCH!!! Anyway, I got to see the baby unexpectedly so that was nice! Ben wasn't there so I didn' find out what it was (it hid its bottom anyway). maybe in a few weeks!

My mom e-mailed me these pics a long time ago and I just ran accross them again. Talk a bout a blast from the past (or a look into the future?) This is me and Todd making a snowman with my cousin Chad. Look like anyone else we know? :)
