Teasing Buster

Buster is trying really hard to ignore Lee's noisy eating habits. :)

Christmas Music

The girls sang "Away in the Manger" at church a couple of weeks ago. Maddy was the only one who could read the words but Grace tried to make herself heard near the end.

What About Buster?

Buster and his most favorite person in the world. (Unless you've got food.)

Christmas Pics

Trying to do a family photo for Christmas is almost impossible...Grace!


But we did get some super cute individual pictures.

Then it turned into 'Running Pictures' (as Maddy calls it) which involves everyone setting up the camera together, setting the timer, and running like crazy to pose in front of the camera. Yes, we know we are strange.

Gracie's Preschool Thanksgiving Program

Post performance photo op with the star of the show.

Playing in the Leaves

Yes, the chicken-dog is afraid of the leaves and has to sit on Lee to 'survive'.

We never did pick up the leaves. We just raked them into a pile, jumped around in them, then left it for another day. The following week it snowed... Spring cleaning is going to be fun.

Disney Princesses on Ice

We surprised Maddy and Grace this last Saturday with a ride on TRAX to downtown and a showing of Disney's Princesses on Ice.

Then God surprised us by arranging to have Maddy's best friend, Gabby, show up at the same show in the seats right next to us! How amazing is that!?

Snow White sighting!

(Grace didn't like the Beast/Gaston fight scene when the Beast gets stabbed.)

Grace, Lee, Maddy, Gabby, and Sherri ready to see some princesses.

A Princess and Her Papa

Grace and Papa playing 'Cinderella' together. So cute!

Pumpkin Carving

Grace and her pumpkin.

Ewww!




Video of the Baby Miriam torture. She's wondering how she was born into such a nutty family.



I always forget I can't do video sideways...I haven't figured out how to rotate it. Sorry.

Madeline Artwork

It says: Horses named: "too cyoot (cute)", "Ashlyn", "Kari", "Mimriemem (Miriam)", "Belle", and "Izabelel (Isabell)"

How very...*detailed* of you, Maddy.
