Randomness (and sickness)

Hey Guys,

sorry I haven't posted in a while but we've been busy. We went to a lovely wedding this month, which unfortunately I don't have any pics from b/c we left our camera at home. But we have gone through three bouts of sickness this past month- colds, the stomach bug, and severe-er (ha ha) colds. So this is just a short update and I'll post some pics tomorrow since it will be Saturday so I should have some free time...hopefully!

btw, I just finished reading one of the best books ever...Pride and Prejudice! It was like, the best book I've read this year so far! I recommend it to positively everyone!

How can 2, I mean, 3-year-olds do this to themselves?



Elizabeth doesn't understand toddlers either


"I'm gonna get you, mwu ha ha ha!"


Well, she's never smiled sweeter, maybe we should put paint on her face more often...


"Don't you think that's enough pictures?"


The result of Emma's morning activitites


I play the only song Emma likes that I know how to play on the paino- The Call!


The Two E's


Jumping on the couch while Mami's not looking, tsk tsk...


"No, I didn't touch a thing!"


a quick hug



holding the "babeage"



She's on a mission...to DESTROY!!!



*I'm flying!"


Queen for the Day


She wears bigger earrings than I do!



The Highlight of the Day for Emma



Don't eat with your hands!

Our Backyard Adventure

Hi Everyone,


okay I know this is a little late but here are the pictures from when the Fourniers came over our house. So when they were here, we went in our backyard and played in the swamp! Not a very smart thing to do when the weather is in the 20's but we had fun!





Twins




Lantern Waste




Art




Caught in the Ice




Crossing the Frozen River




What we thought was solid ground





Tree Hugger




Ok, not really, she was falling (for real)




Leaving Narnia


well that's it for now, just wanted to share that with y'all...be sure to check out http://www.therebelution.com/- a really cool website by two teenage boys, for teens...there are some really great articles on their blog. TTFN!

Hair Days

Hey Guys,

today our Kiyoseki Styler finally arrived in the mail!!! So of course my two younger sisters, since they've never had their hair straightened, decided to test it out! Emma also got her hair cut for the first time yesterday; her bangs are so cute! Here are the results...


Alexa, with her fun curly flips on the end!

Grace in all her golden-haired glory

Sweet, smiling Emma

"How many more pictures?"

"I said no more!!!"

they're all adollable! I can't wait to use the straightener myself! Tootles for now!

Tomorrow!

Hey Everyone,

tomorrow is January 22. And if you have read my previous post, you know what that means. Tomorrow, Christians across the nation are gathering in front of their schools, court houses, and churches. To pray. That's it; no shouting, holding signs, or starting a riot. Just praying. Never Silence Life Organization has asked that people bring a piece of tape to put over their mouth; a physical sign of our silent protest. Here is a link to a video from NSL that really moved me to participate in this event and be part of the change. Not Obama's change, but true change that will be sweeping the country.

Please join in the cause. If you are unable to stand outside a building, praying from your desk, car, or bed is just as good. Prayer is stronger than law and any other thing man puts up to preven tus. Togethor we can accomplish a great deed- saving the lives of the unborn.
