Let The Party Begin!

This past weekend we had so much fun being able to hang out together with our family. We had a Super Bowl/Birthday Party for Austin's birthday on Sunday. I felt so bad for Austin and Kaydree because they both caught some nasty flu ( Austin just found out he has an ear infection, sinus infection, and bronchitis :( ) so some of our family made their stay short but we still had fun! Super Bowl is a big deal in our family so we all watched and waited for our team to win ( that being the Cardinals b/c I love rooting for the underdogs! except my brother-in-law who loves the Steelers and always will pick the right team who wins, always). So needless to say, he was the only one who went home happy...but we all had a fun night and I sure did cook up some mean food! :) Happy Birthday Austin!!!

This is a really bad picture but all the rest look

like he's half out of it. :) He really is handsome!!!

Kaydree wanted to help daddy do everything!!

Brayden all ready for some football...hey it's the only one

we had!! He loves football already and Austin thinks and wishes

he'll go pro!

Austin's brother always performs and sings songs

for everyone's birthday. This time was HSM 3!!

Lately it seems that there could be a light at the

end of the tunnel. Kaydree and Brayden seem to

be playing together and not screaming non-stop.

I think they realized that it was easier to just to get

along.... I'm still waiting for all of you who said that

because they are so close they will be such good friends. :)

But they bring me so much joy from little moments like these!

Yes, I got my hair done again. My cousin does

hair and charges me just for supplies and I love her!

It's so fun having short hair and Austin loves it too!

And here are some pics of some of our recent

projects we have been working on. This old

camera does nothing justice and the mantle has

not been stained yet and we need our painters to come back

...but I love what I see so far!!

Wa-la!!
