Tagged!

I've been tagged! Thanks Vicki! Here's the 4th picture in my 4th folder on the computer. Story behind the pic:

This was right after I moved to Phoenix and Nicci and I had just gotten our apartment together. For some reason, I don't remember why, I put this t-shirt on Tippi. I think I was just being dumb. Anyway, then Nicci grabbed our grandpa's old hat and put it on her (grandpa would be so proud!) We tortured her further by taking pictures of her new "doggie fashion." Tippi is so tolerant! Oh the things she would say to me if she could talk...


I tag: Rachel Moultrie, Jami Fergie, Linda Goodman and Laura Elder! (ok, I know I'm going over 4, but Nicci too)

Pumpkins!

Who doesn't love a good batch of pumpkin patch pictures?? Here are a few from when we went on Friday with my sister Wendi, her husband Chris and their boys Justin, Luke and Ian along with Wendi's Chris's nephew Roy and his wife Kerry (got all that?:) ). Marc and Sammy "super sleuthed" (Ok, I've been watching too many Disney cartoons, for those of you that are familiar with "My Friends Tigger and Pooh") and found us on their way to pick up Brenden, so they got to get in on the fun too!
There were baby chicks for sale... I begged Chris, but to no avail. He said "They get ugly real fast."
I had to agree and changed my mind. The boys loved watching them though! This was the 2 seconds where we got them to peel their eyes away for a picture.

And off into Pumpkin Paradise!

(Left to Right) Ian, Justin, Brenden, Bretton, Luke

Each of their faces is so fitting in this picture... words can't describe! (Bretton was eating grass and finding out it's not so much fun... he's just making faces, not crying. He did this a lot throughout our pumkining adventure).

Brenden thought he was so strong picking up these HEAVY pumpkins!!

Woops! There it goes!
"Just gotta get a better grip... Those things are slippery!!"

Brenden kept going for the white ones....???

Once again... tasting, but not enjoying...

A great picture to show off the 4 teeth he has popping through!




How could I EVER say "no" to this face??
My handsome boys!
...and someone's all wore out from the loads and loads of fun!

***
Earlier in the day, Nicci and I found Bretton doing this... I don't even have an explanation..
What do you think is going through his head??

Posterwall Revived and Laid to Rest

On Saturday, Chris's friend Greg got married.

Greg and Chris have been through quite a bit together since they met just a few years ago, including being in a super sweet band known as "Posterwall." Yes, yes... I know they're famous, I know you have all their CDs and listen to them relentlessly and I know how upset you were when they broke up a little over a year ago but I have great news for you all! Posterwall was revived at Greg's reception for a reunion concert at the request of Greg's new bride, Kendall! Here are some pics of my rockstar husband in action!!

Ah... caught me!


Wasn't that AMAZING?!?! (Yes, it was a Hawaiian themed wedding, and I must say one of the funnest I've been to. Well done Greg and Kendall, well done!) Anyway... I don't mean to break your hearts once again, but Posterwall was officially laid to rest after this brief revival.

Someday... new band, new sound...

*****
On to Bretton news! Last week, I went in to his room to get him up from his nap and this is what I find...


Yep. That's my baby STANDING!!
It's only a matter of time now!! He is pulling up on everything! Watch out world!!
