Shower Update

For those interested in why I seem to attend a monthly baby shower, here are two of the reasons - Emerson, with mommy Lauren on the left and Kiley, with mommy Kristan on the right. Not pictured is Kendall, Aimee's baby, who fits right in between the two! Welcome to our world little cuties!

Spelling Bee!

We are so proud of our Baby Jake! He made it into the top ten finalists of the spelling bee - out of 300 children! He didn't win the title, but he did a great job despite being very nervous! Mom was able to farm her class out and watch the festivities - congratulations Jake!

Lindsay Lax!

Lindsay has joined the Junior Varsity Lacrosse Team at LHHS. Today was her first practice - here she is after she got home...........gross and sweaty but she had a great time!

Last One!

It looks like the end of the line for baby showers in 2nd grade for a while! The last one, for baby Kiley, happened in my classroom on Friday. I guess we'll have to think of another reason to eat! I think the staff enjoyed all the good food we've been providing lately:)

Happy Birthday Andy!

We celebrated Andy's birthday this past Monday. He is 15 years old - yikes! Happy Birthday Bean!

O Christmas Tree

This year Dad and Andy found the most beautiful tree we've ever had - at an awesome price! We will miss it - thanks Kristan and Stephen for the tip.

Christmas 2008

Grandma came up on Christmas Eve and we went to Mass at our beautiful church - Happy Birthday Jesus!

Hmmm........that's Grandma's opinion!

Too much turkey for Harlan?

Cooking Christmas Dinner with Grandma.

Off to South Carolina and Mama's "lowcountry" Christmas tree!

Cousin Allman wasn't bothered at all by the 50 degree water!

We were lucky enough to see cousin Kelly while in South Carolina.

The water was freezing!

Another beautiful day on Pawley's Island!
