This morning I awoke & what did I see?
I missed your birthday- Oh! Silly Me.
I hope your day was fun. I hope it was great.
Hopefully, you & Sarah went on a date.

Busy, Busy, Busy...

I bet this picture caught the attention of all my old PR buddies...and the 1st one is of our friends from church (one of Lily Kate's classmates). Aren't they cute!?! (and the kids aren't bad either- ha ha!)

If you are up way past your bedtime and want something else to keep you awake tonight -go see some of my new pictures. You can blame me for your grumpiness tomorrow!

I am a Celebrity...

...book reader! All of you out there that have kiddos in elementary school know that this past week was National Book Week. Ethan & Jack's school did a fabulous job of playing it up. They had something great every day of the week to celebrate reading. I got to go and read with them for "Latte in the Library" one of the days. And on another- I got to be a "celebrity reader". Now- brace yourselves- I have no pictures to show for this. But I want to tell you the short version of how this went down... I decided to read 2 of the new books from the Skippyjohn Jones series. Hilarious books! I now know from experience that if you have a 2nd grader or below- run out and find these books. I read them to Jack's class & they loved it! They were chiming in to read along with me and clapping at appropriate times. Jack said some of the kids even acted it out at recess. I was a hit. They think I am fun!!! So, I'm feelin' good as trot from Jack's class down to the 4th grade hall to read to Ethan & his friends. Not the same for them. I got a few courtesy laughs. They were polite, but I could see that I was embarrassing Ethan with my voices. So, it begins... one of many times I will embarrass my kids. Isn't it our right as parents??? Anyone who knew me growing up knows I have paid my dues. (Just kidding dad- We had a lot of fun because you were YOU!)
On Friday, Lily Kate got to dress as her favorite book character. She was the cutest Angleina Ballerina ever!

My neck hurts!

...and I kind of like it! My neck hurts because I was blessed enough to do 7 (yes, seven) photo sessions this weekend- that was the fun part. Now I must sit in front of my computer for infinity and get all of these pics up on my website for viewing. But, like I said- I am glad!
Other than workin'- we are getting ready for the holidays. I have shopped a little (with my mama) and the kids have had projects that had to be done before the break. To all of my teacher friends out there- no me gusta projects!!! And to all of my Spanish friends out there- pardon my spanglish.

Lily had the most adorable Thanksgiving program/ feast at her school. I love her teacher! I want to be in her class. Enjoy all of the random pics- some are of our fam. and some are what I have edited thus far!

"Just Shoot Me"

These are 4 sweet brothers that we go to church with. They were a blast to shoot! Who doesn't like spending the day with such cute boys!

Thanks to those of you that kept me in your prayers (my 3 faithful readers) this weekend. I had alot of fun! I love my job... and that is a blessing for sure!
