Love them apples!


Bright red, some green...
Some tart, some sweet.
Falling off the tree
and into your hand...
The selfish bees did not care for our plan...
Great in delicious syrupy pies...
Inhaling wafts of
 sweet cinnamon
as you close your eyes.
Even for snacking
they make a perfect treat.
Thanks to the Woodburys,
they're organic and FREE!

Yippee!

Fall Fun


Took a trip to celebrate a special birthday ...
It was a long drive, but well worth it.
The chauffeur was a very careful driver...
= )
He really threw himself into the business of driving...

Although at times he did get a little
distracted...
"Hey little fella!  Keep your eyes on the road!"
(driving in a onesie: don't try this at home)
Haha!
All kidding aside...
Our baby passenger did very well
for his first six hour trip!
When the toys were no longer
interesting, and the window
scene began to blurr...
The cell phone kept him occupied.
Air turned 21!
We had a nice dinner at the Cheesecake factory...
We all agreed they have the longest menu
we've ever seen!


The birthday girl ordered a wonderful
shrimp platter...



The crab cake was delicious and was devoured
before we could get a shot, but we did
get the remains of the Bang Bang Chicken and Shrimp dish.
It was SO good!
(although it may not look it at this point)
And the Sheperds pie really
went through the ringer after
the baby's foot slid through it!
(So much for passing him across the table!)
= )

Can you believe he was actually sad
about all this attention?
Yes, he was on the verge of a poochie lip!


Air and Aunts

Praise the Lord for 21 years!
 Happy Birthday Air!

"Take me out to the ball game!"

(Sung to the above tune)
We went out to a ball game...
(Tiger's that is)


We went out with the crowd!


Didn't buy peanuts...
or Cracker Jacks!


(and didn't miss it either)
 "I don't care if I never get back"
(back home? well my bed was calling me after this late night)
 (or back to another game? wouldn't mind seeing another win)
= )
"Let me root, root, root for the home team..."
 (oh yes, the crowd cheered BIG time!)
"If they don't win it's a shame!"
(and it would have been)
 (The fans were thrilled that they actually won 14-0!)
"For there's ONE..."
 "TWO..."
(open your eyes Brit!)

('at a girl!)
" THREE...
Strikes you're out!"

(Great poses with Jo and Hannah)
(finding old friends)
Amanda and Brit

(mother and daughter team)

(Sarah and Brit)
"At the old..." 

"BALL GAME!"

The brideless and groomless wedding pics


Yes, this is quite ridiculous...
to travel miles to attend a wedding
with suspense building...
and glee for the happy couple...
Then take tons of pictures
before the ceremony...
still brimming with excitement...
Trigger happy with the camera...
taking shots of all the guests...
to suddenly have the batteries die
just before the bride
and groom
say
I
DO!
Oh well,
we'll share what we've got...
Mom of the happy groom and Amy K
 Can't believe these three moms were
just girls themselves
not many moons ago...
 Joanna Estep's twin baby sister
= )
 Brit and Ab are two happy guests

I remember these friends of the groom as college students...
young whipper snappers they were,
and now they're married with children...
My how time flies!

 Aw, Uncle Dave and Levi
 Alssya and Abby
 Well, we did get the parents of the bride and groom
lighting the candles...
But the bride and groom...
well...
you'll have to check someone else's blog for the details
= (
CONGRATULATIONS
JUSTIN AND EMILY!!!
