Evangeline Joy

*Hopefully,* in the next week or so I will be putting up some photos from the past few months.  We are doing great and Jake, Abigail and I are so happy to have Evie in our lives. We give thanks to the Lord for both of our precious children every day!

Is it just me?

Or should we sign this kid up for some art classes? (I'm talking about the drawing vs. the painting :])


I'm a little afraid I have that 'my kid is the greatest' virus that chronically infects most parents, so really do tell me if it's just me!

Playing Catch Up

I am going to be (hopefully) making some posts that should have been done this summer.  But you should be aware that I am going to shamelessly back date them so I can easily find them in the future!


These trees are in a yard just down the road from us. They are gorgeous every fall and this year I managed to get a picture of them before all the leaves were gone!

Cookie Time

Having decided that:

Changing one bank account to joint (how was this not done before?), closing two other bank accounts, opening a new credit card, transferring old credit card, finishing work on photos for a large important photo client that has to be done TODAY, prepping for a large, imminent craft sale (including appliqueing 50 dish clothes among other things), trying to fix an $10 account issue with the applique website, trying to finish joining phone and internet accounts (for us the landlords who are out of the country and not able to) that have old, faulty and messed up records that an hour on the phone with customer service can't fix in order to get a monthly savings of $18 and making important decisions about it that effects the landlords while I can't be talking to everyone in real time, after starting all this: totaling my car, dealing with totaling the car, fixing insurance problems and getting police records to fax for the non-guilty party, looking for a new car, and trying to be a good mom and wife

all in one week was probably a good reason to feel a little stressed, I sat down and ate a cookie. (and complained about it in a blog)

Abigail's Hello Kitty Birthday Party

We had a lot of fun this year with Abigail's first 'all kids' party (which means most of the parents dropped their kids off).  I put the pictures in an album and did most of the explaining there.  So, click on the picture to go see them!
