new genealogy link

make sure to check out my new genealogy link to the right. I will try to update it with as much information and pictures when i can.

Once there was a snow man!!!

We actually got snow this year at Christmas time so Whitney and Joe went outside to build a snowman. Here they are in action.

We went to Washington for thanksgiving break .While we were visiting Joe's sister we took the girls to play at this indoor playground at the gym they have there. Joe also turned #28..and so we celebrated his birthday with presents and cake at both his sister's and at my parents. We ate alot of cake that week. What am I saying we ate alot of everything that week..it was Thanksgiving.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be attempting to add a link to another web page with some of my family genealogy information on it.

PumpkiN PatcH!!!!!!!!!
October 2006
We had a lot of fun picking our pumpkins...and the hay maze and riding the wagon through the farm. It was perfect.

Here are some pictures of the girls i took today at the park. It was nice only about 87 degrees and the park had a water spraying area so the kids could get wet. Amber of course kept her feet dry while whitney ran through and under and over anything that would send water her way. It was a great little trip since we went with another family and had a picnic lunch inbetween playing.

Joe and our family traveled this last weekend to the first family reunion that his family has had in a long time. The kids had fun and got wet and it was nice to get together with the extended family. Here is amber and kade getting pushed around in their makeshift boats by uncle perry and aunt emily. Boy did they love that. IT did keep the bees and yellow jackets at bay.

Here is a picture of the girls that I found just sweet. They are really growing fast and play pretty well together. Whitney is wearing a sun suit..do you all remember those? Brings back memories whenever she puts one on.

I took the girls to the zoo here last week and they had alot of fun. There was a butterfly exhibit, a few landed on us which was wacky. One of the tigers was resting near the glass observation window so whitney got to get real close to it. Then we went to the rose gardens and the girls had alot of fun smelling all of the different varieties.

Spring Wedding

Dont they look sweet??




















Here are pictures of the wedding..the girls, us and ofcourse the happy couple...

Dress project

My brother in law is getting married next week and i had looked everywhere for dresses for my girls. Finally i found some that I could makeover to match. I made the white accents myself and then tacked them on after removing the pink ribbons. I thought it turned out rather well and will keep the pink accents if i want to modify the dresses again in the future. Can't wait to see how they will look on the girls!!!

I've heard of cats not liking water.........

Here are the girls playing and/or screaming in the sprinklers a while back. It was about 74 degrees that day so we told whitney to throw on her suit and jump on out there. No trouble with her but the expressions on ambers' faces tell how she felt about it. Joe thought he'd calm her down by taking part as well.......it had the opposite effect.
