Family Pictures 2008

Well here are the all dreaded "Family Pictures." A good friend of ours so kindly took them for us, she did a fabulous job. Thank you so much Kinda, your the greatest.

Bryson's First Day Of School...2nd grade wow

Okay so today was Bryson's first day of second grade. I think that I embarrassed the crap out of him ...ha ha ha. First of all we stood outside and took pictures while all of his friends were passing, and then I followed him to the bus stop to get some more pictures and just when he thought that he had seen the last of me ... ha ha ha I showed up at the school to get a picture of him and his new teacher. I'm such a horrible mom. The first thing he said when he got off the bus was " Mom, what are you doing here" He was so embarrassed it was the greatest. I'm now in the PTA so hes going to see even more of me, lucky him.

Bryson's Birthday Party

We went to my moms house for a big family dinner. Bryson wanted roast and potatoes and gravy with homemade rolls. We had a great time. Thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate his birthday. Uncle Shad gives Bryson a very special birthday present... a hit to the eye with a rubber golf ball.
Shad... he was joking about it when we got home, so don't feel too bad.

His great grandpa gives him a jar of change he has been collecting for a long long time. It was really special.

I forgot !

As I was looking through my camera I realized that I forgot to post the rest of Annistyn's birthday pictures. So here they are.

She is enjoying her ice cream sundae from Applebee's
Not really fond of the burning candles.
We actually got her to blow them out though

Happy Birthday Tomorrow!

On August 17th Bryson James will be 7 years old. I can't believe how time flies. We are so grateful for you Bryson and for all you have brought into our family. You are the sweetest most caring boy I have ever met. Thank you so much for all you do to help mom and dad out. You are so amazing and so great with your sisters. Thank you for being the son I have always wished for, and the best brother ever. We love you B-DOG!

Temples

This slide show was pretty fun to look at. It's amazing to see these temples and the differences in all of them, but to know that the same thing goes on in each of them. It's so great

Camera Happy on Birthday!

It was such a nice day that we decided that we would take a couple hundred pictures in the yard. I don't know why it isn't possible to just take a couple really cute ones and be done with it... but NOOOOO they never seem to cooperate. Here are some of Anni and Saedree since Bryson was being a stinker and wouldn't come outside. Here is the two MAJOR princesses on birthday day. I can almost guarantee that there will be a lot more pictures to come as the day progresses.

I got a half decent picture of sassy pants. I'm so proud
She wouldn't for the life of her give her cracker up... sooo here she is cracker and all.
We actually captured a sweet moment between the two of them... I can't believe they aren't fighting.
Saedree is pretending to paint Anni's toes. Anni looks bored =)
I told her to give me her cutest smile... so I guess I got it, oh boy.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANNISTYN !

Today August 7th is Anni Kae's 2nd birthday. We are so grateful to have her sweet spirit in our family. We love you so much Anni and we hope that this day will be a very special one for you.
