The Big 3-0

These pics are all backwards, so sorry. We went out to Buca Di Peppo a week after my birthday while Fran and Katie watched all the yahoos. (I like to string out my birthday for at least a week!)

Ethan and Lydia helped me blow out all my candles. Thanks for the fun pizza party Fran and Todd.

Can you believe we attempted a Drive In Movie? It was so much fun. The kids watched "Up" first, and then we watched "The Proposal" while all the kids slept! We had gone to dinner at The Blue Lemon before hand while my awesome neighbor, Laura, tended the kids. During the day, my lovely mother watched the girls (Jared took Ethan to his baseball game) and I enjoyed a few hours of shopping by myself!

Poor Lydia! I don't remember why she was crying, but it makes me sad looking at the picture. Ethan and Jared got me some bright flowers that I enjoyed for weeks. I love those boys. Jared and the kids spoiled me with new pink sweat capris, shoes, & sunglasses. So fun.

Natalie, me, and Dawn are so happy because my cousin, Natalie just did our Glitter Toes! She also did Michelle, Olivia, and Lydia's toes. My awesome sister Michelle watched all the kiddos while Jared and I caught a movie that night. Such a fun birthday!

My precious baby dolls, I am so in love with them.

July 2009

Little Ashlyn Marie. Happy 2 months Tinies! It is so fun dressing them alike. I still can't believe we have twins. It is so much fun. They bring our family so much joy.

The little chub nubbers, Brielle Mae! She just loves to eat, spit up, eat some more, spit up more, and the cycle continues all day long!

Our cute Springers, Bolt Dog and Molly Jo. Jared gave them a sweet, much needed hair cut so I will pet them again I suppose.

Lydia, I, and Brielle chillin in the backyard, Ashlyn was there too, I guess she didn't make it in the picture though! Sorry babe.

This is the funniest thing Jared and Ethan do. "Can you hear that?" "BOOM, CHI CHI, CHI CHI, BOOM CHI CHI" and they shake their booties, it used to make Lydia scream and cry but now she tries to do it too. I attempt it, but Jared is the best at it. I guess just a cooky family thing we do!

4th of July at Granny Eyre's

That fellar loves to swim.

Nixon, Lydia, Audrey, Ethan, and Abby. Cute Cousins.

Lydia could jump all day long... "Ready, Begin!"

Our family of 6. Happy 4th of July!

I just love these cuties. They play so good together... well 90% of the time anyway!

Bowling~July 1st

We went bowling for Becca's birthday at Fat Cats. My mom watched the twins and we had a fun night with Ethan, Lydia, and the rest of the clan.

I love my man!

Jared bowled over 200, can't remember the exact score, but I bet he does! He is a hot shot!!

My awesome "in laws"... they are the best!

Lydia had the funnest time pushing the ball down that thing. By the 7th round, she was done and Ethan didn't mind one bit bowling for her. I just love my kids!

Matt and Clarissa's Wedding Reception

Jo Jo (Joseph) and Isaac. What stud muffins.

Stephen and Kristine came all the way from England. Their little boy, Emerson is so fun and full of personality. We all miss you already, come back soon!

Camille and Brian. Such a cute couple, they will make darling babies in years to come!!

Everyone doting on cute lil' Emerson boy.

At the wedding luncheon. Matt was just expressing his love for Clarissa, oh, so precious. I feel so bad, I have no pics of them at the reception, what a bad sister. They are a darling couple. I am certain the photographer got lots...we are excited to see!!

The cutest fairy of them all! But of course I am a little biased! Clarissas mom made the cutest outfits for all the girls. Lydia and the other fairies passed out bubbles to the guests from their little purses. So cute.

The 2 most important men/boys in my life! So handsome.

Me, Ashlyn, and Brielle. They were good little troopers getting passed around most of the day.

My mom and David. Couldn't pass this pic up of her fixing her shoe, and she still looks pretty doing that!

Me and Jare Bear! Such a fun wedding, loved the bright colors.

Camille, Michelle, Kristine, and the Tinies. What babes.

Hogle Zoo~June 09

The kids are so lucky to have the funnest grandparents in the world.

Ethan and Lydia are the best of friends most days!

Me and my sexy husband. He is the best!

Has anyone seen Ethan fellar?

The tinies are just a few weeks old, they slept the whole time we were there. It took me a minute to figure out which baby I am holding and which one Fran is holding... any guesses? Oh, I am so in love with them!!

Blessing Day

Little princesses. The blessings were held at Jareds parents house on June 27th. Ashlyn and Brielle are so loved.

The proud Grandmas showing off their beautiful dresses.

Levi and David both gave excellent blessings to the girls. Levi blessed Ashlyn and David blessed Brielle. Thanks again.

The 2 little tinies. Brielle loves to lean on Ashlyn. They are 5 weeks and 5 days old in these pics. My mom took most the pics so there will be more to come!
