nothing new here.....











So I will post a few more from this weeks sessions! I posted these last night and when i looked at it this morning i couldn't believe how off my colors were! Sometime blogger does weird thing to photographs, which is why most photographer use Typepad instead! I am too lazy to switch over, so let's try this again!
the baby is our newest cousin and boy does Emily adore her! every doll is named baby lily now!

I've still got it baby!




Okay, so the other day I was the antique store and found this handstitched vintage quilt that I knew I just HAD to have! Actually I have been eying this little treasure for quite sometime, but couldn't afford the hefty price! This time I picked it up to admire it again and noticed it was 75% off!!!! I was so excited! I went up to pay for it and the man told me they only accept cash or checks! What??? Who excepts checks these days???? (okay, I do, but only because I don't carry around a credit card machine!) anyway, I was so bummed. There was a sign that said NO HOLDS!
I knew if i left the store without that baby in my arms, I would lose it forever! This crazy lady was following me around the store waiting for me to put it back! So.....I turned on the aubrey charm and asked so nicely if he could PLEASE put it on hold until I could come back with the cash. He looked at me hesitantly and said, "I guess since it's for you I will do it this time!" I was the happiest girl ever!
Then Yesterday I was running some erronds and the kids were whining that they wanted a treat! I saw the Mc Donalds sign for their $1.00 extra large drinks. I pulled through the drive through and ordered 1 lemonade for them to share! When I pulled to the window the guy had their lemonade and an extra for me! I told him I only ordered 1 lemonade, he smiled and said, " I know!" Yessssss..... a free drink!
Baby i've still got my charm!;)

Anyway, here are a few favs from lastnight (notice the quilt!);) I love this family and I am not only saying that because they are family friends! he he he!

I have to share a few....





I could have posted all of them, but I restrained myself! These little one's were little angels! Usually when I get more than 2 kids together, all Heck breaks loose and someone always ends up in tears! The youngest little guy cried when we were done!:)

NO, NO TWEET TWEETS!!!!!





So, last year we planted two tiny little strawberry starts, and this year they went CRAZY! Emily sits at the front window and screams and yells at the robins when they snatch her "twaberries!" It is so funny, but the more you laugh the more hysterical she gets! We sure love our summer treat! "NO, NO tweet tweets!!!!"

I know Zach's eyes look freaky, but it was a strange reflection from the slide! Notice is first hole in his mouth - yup, he finally lost his first tooth!

I love the last picture if Emily and her scraped up knees - it's totally her!

MY Dad!

So, after reading everybody's mothers' day tributes last month, I thought I'd do it for Father's Day! Sorry mom - I will do yours, I promise!:) This post is about
MY DAD..... ( I have been hunting for a picture on this computer, but I couldn't find one! I am soooo bummed!

1. I love that he becomes friends with EVERYONE that he meets!

2. If you ever get a chance to have him as your Sunday School teacher, you won't leave hungry! He brings popcorn to class!

3. He and mom would come to all of my tennis matches and cheer at the wrong times!
(Tennis etiquette... Never cheer when your opponent messes up!) Who knew?!!!! :)

4. I fell in LOVE with a blue and white tennis racket one summer. I worked my butt off to earn the money for it, one day i came home and he had gotten it for me! I was the happiest girl ever!

5. I would always jump at the chance to go to the store with him. I always knew I would get a candy bar and a .25 drink. RULE #1 - You had to finish it all before we got home so mom wouldn't find out!

6. When I was in High School we would run home during Sunday School and grab a bite to eat, then run back as if we had never left!:)

7. We used to spend Hours at the Carson city pool swimming laps together. We both had AWESOME upper body strength that summer!

8.He has always taught me to be independent, and to do whatever I put my mind to - and I do!

9. He is the only person I know that will spend an entire day on a deep sea fishing boat puking his guts out, and STILL have the desire to go out and try it again! CRAZY!

10. He used to sneak me on roller coasters when I was too short! I was the only one who would go on them with him! I would stand on his feet to make me look taller!

11. I LOVE that he came by himself when Zach was born to take care of me. He even brought Zach a goofy looking stuffed animal that we still have! He took good care of us that first week! How sweet is that?

12. I know he is a wonderful grandpa, i just wish my kiddos could have a chance to know him better!

I LOVE YOU!

a couple peeks from this week....
