New Family Pictures, FINALLY!

So things finally fell into place and we found time on Saturday to have some new family pictures taken. Thanks to Uncle Dust and Aunt Marge for spending a couple hours capturing some great moments! Here are about a hundred of my favorites! I think they took over 750 pictures (oh the beauty of digital), so it has taken me a long time to pick out my favorites. Thank goodness for blogs...how else could you share a million pictures with so many friends.

Fighting with blogger

So I realize that I'm way overdue for a post and decided tonight was going to be the night for a little update. However, blogger will not let me post any pictures. Since I got up way too early to hit the sales today, I'm not up to fighting will blogger tonight. So stay tuned for a new post in the next day or two.

A Little Love from My Laurels

Tonight I went on a date with my hubby to dinner and a movie (Dan in Real Life, which I highly recommend). When we got home, it was evident that my Laurels had paid me a little secret visit, just to let me know they love and missed me! The following are pictures of their creativity at work. Sorry girls, this cannot count as a value project.

This side says, "I love my Laurels" and I really do!

A couple of my laurels lovingly refer to me as Prez, if you can't tell.

How could I be mad at anyone who tells me I'm the sunshine of their lives?

I love you girls! Thanks for giving me something to blog about.

goodsearch.com

I just found out about a great fund raiser that I wanted to share with you. It simply requires a couple extra clicks when you are shopping online, no money out of your pocket, and supports Soulumination (the non-profit organization that takes priceless pictures of terminally ill children and their families for free)! Anyway, all you do is go to goodsearch.com and select Soulumination as the charity. From there click on goodshop and you'll be provided with a list of all the stores that will give Souluminations a kick back from your purchase, at no extra cost to you! Some of the online stores include Nordstroms, Gap, Barnes and Noble, Best Buy, Target, Hotels.com, Walmart and Sephora, to name a few. So please check out goodsearch.com, and use it for your online shopping needs. I can tell you from personal experience that these photographs are a great blessing to the families during such scary times in their lives! Please feel free to share this website with anyone who would be interested.

Fall Medley

So I'm not sure where October went, but here is some documentation that I was there!

I got the girls new "church coats". As soon as they put them on they said they looked like missionaries. So let me introduce you to Sis. Lemme and Sis. Lemme.

At the pumpkin patch with cousin Rylin. Just another demonstration how the BOB is so much more than a stroller!

All the cousins before we embark on a trick or treating frenzy in downtown OH.

The shark and the skunk had the best seats of all!

Shark kisses for Grandma, watch out for those teeth!

Ice cream cone Halle. I wish I had a quarter for every time someone said they wanted to take a lick.
