6 great years!

On Oct 25th, 2002 I married my best friend. On our 6th anniversary, we are doing it all over again(sort of). We had our wedding ceremony performed by a retired judge, it has been one of my dreams to have the marriage blessed by the Church. We took classes several months ago but never completed the process. In Sept, I had an emergency appendectomy and while in the hospital, my Priest came to visit (not me specifically, he visits Catholic patients). While he was visiting we talked about the classes and I realized that our anniversary would be the perfect day to have the marriage blessed! We spoke to the Deacon and filled out all the paperwork! As much as I would have loved to make a HUGE deal out of this, we decided to keep it small(extremely small)and private. Cannot wait to repeat my vows to the man I love, the one I am meant to be with for the rest of my life!
Love you honey! Thanks for doing this for me (and with me)

1st haircut!

Well at almost 22mos, the time has come to have the ceremonial 1st haircut. Teagan's hair is "wild" to say the least and I have been unable to do anything with it.....decided that if we even it up a bit, maybe we can get some sort of style out of it!

Here is how the day went:

what a good looking crew!

 

Eversince Alexis was little, we have done a "GRANDKIDS" picture each year for my Dad and step-mom. It started out with 6 cute little kids and umm, we have grown to 12! Ages ranging from 17 (the 2 oldest, one being mine will be 18 this year!) to 7mos old! An actual photographer was taking the "real" pictures, but I was squeezing in, trying to get a little practise in....Here is one of my favorites from the day.

Pictures as promised!

October = Pumpkin patch!!!

We spent most of Sunday morning at the pumpkin patch/farm! Kids had a lot of fun! I took a ton of pics but I am on hubbys work laptop (I am waiting for a new ac adaptor for mine)so I can't upload/edit them! I will have them on here as soon as I can!!

Our little star

 

Mason was "Star of the week" last week. He was so proud. They had a little ceremony and we were able to attend ( I was still recovering from my appendectomy from the week before).
