Family Photo Shoot 2011

The worst day of the year = family picture day.  The kids don't want to fake a smile for an hour and hold still and most definitely not hug their sibling for that long.  So we tried to embrace the silly faces and the giggles this year.  We used the pictures we got and made them work.  Here is what we got!

Piano Recital

You can imagine the silliness that Austin and Chase both bring into my life.  But tonight I have to say I was so proud of them.  We attended their piano recital at the church and my boys both played their songs wonderfully.  Not only did they play wonderfully they played them on the organ and while the audience sang along.  I had no idea they would get opportunities to accompany or play the organ.  What a blessing Catherine Sweet as a piano teacher has already been to my family.  Great job little buddies.

Livin' it up at the County Fair

Livin' it up at the county fair with the fam.  I ate fried butter, a personal first, and other ridiculously yummy things with Dave and the kids.  Loved that each food supplier was run by a local school or church.  The rides were great, the food was even better, but the company was the best.
