Update in pictures.

I am doing this update with pictures because it just shows what we have been up to. And this is only half of what has been going on.

As many of you know, David's mom died on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. It was a blessing after a long, hard fight against cancer. She was a very strong women and fought to the end. We will all miss her so much. Thank you all for your prayers, thoughts and kind words. They really meant so much to all of us. We will be having a memorial service on Jan. 3th. Please prayer for us on that day. I know it will be very difficult for all us us to say our last goodbyes.

Now on to my crazy life. The first picture says it all!!


This is my "Macho" son! Do you love this? He is in his motorcross shirt, camo pants, with the Snow White dress up skirt and white heels!!

I have been spending a lot of time in Emma's school and her classroom. I love going in there and feeling like a part of the class.

Emma's class is celebrating the First Thanksgiving. The turkeys were invited to be the guests.

This is my boy!! I just love him so much!!!


Here is the boy on Thanksgiving morning.

Emma loves getting dressed up, but you wouldn't know it from the look on her face.


Getting ready to go to Aunt Carol's for dinner.

The highlight for my chlidren was seeing Baby Hannah. Yes, my children were baby hogs. HOGS, I tell you. People were waiting to hold the baby and the line was always behind my children. It was so funny!


Emma with Hannah. Isn't she getting big?


They are helping Aunt Kimmie feed Hannah. Can you tell my children love babies?!


Can you tell these are forced smiles for the camera?


Timmy sharing a secret with Hannah.

I am sure my boy will teach Miss Hannah a lot!


Does that boy look happy or what?

Many of you will get a kick out of these next pictures!! I was involved playing a game and then looked over to see my children...

Emma thinking that using the Tide stick on the tablecloth is fun!!


You don't think that Timmy was going to be left out, do ya?

When we got home, I realized I forgot to take a picture of them in their dress coats.


Here he is in his Peacoat. Yes, Emma is clowning around.


Now she is mad because I wanted her picture in her dress coat. Such a mean mom!

Since November was so warm, Timmy and I went outside so he could ride his bike. Things went very wrong when he fell on the blacktop with his hand slamming on the blacktop withthe handbars and him on top of it. The result (after x-rays and an orthropedic surgeon) was a severely bruised hand. The pictures are scattered throughout the rest of the post.

Timmy's hand is very swollen in this picture although it is hard to see. It is the top hand at the base of his thumb.

David bought me a new camera. My Sony went south. So we stepped up and got a very expensive one...but I love it. The Canon Rebel XTi Digital SLR Camera


You can't forget Maggie. This was me fooling around with my new camera.


This is my new table set I got at Lowes. This is also a before picture. I painted the wall 2 days after this.


Here is my new powder room. I don't have a before. It was a pale green with an ugly medicine cabinet.


Emma posing and me with the new camera.


Trying to show you how swollen it still is. Hard to see though.

The kids HUGE present. I have better pictures to come in the next few days.


The kids huge present! Yes, it is a snowmobile. Did I lose my mind...YES!!


His hand is now bruising nicely.


Can you see how swollen and bruised the base of this thumb is?


Look at the purple on the inside of his thumb. He really got hurt very badly.

It got so much worse after this!! It was crazy. I have so much more to post but no time know. I hope everyone is have a great time getting ready for Christmas!!! I will be back soon.
