When your kid who HATES to read
Asks if he can go to Barnes & Noble
And pick out a book
To BUY

What do you do?

You take him there
IMMEDIATELY
And buy him whatever book he wants

And then you sneak a picture for the blog, as you are certain that this day may never come again.......

Getting Ready for the big DATE....

The annual Daddy/Daughter dance is tonight! I can't believe she's getting so big!

FLASHBACK Friday - One year ago today......

Dan and Eyli went to their first Daddy/Daughter Dance on Valentine's Day. They had a BLAST at the dance - here are a few pics!

Lovin my baby brothers new blog!

Ok, so he's kinda a copy-cat - but, who cares? I need all the laughs I can get now-a-days!

FLASHBACK Friday - I'm still the winner......

It was September 23rd, of 1995 - and although he appears to be a big competitor by nature, I am actually more of the "warrior" type, as I MUST win - at all cost.

Happily, he fell for the "I won't smash it in your face, if you won't smash it in mine" speech, after which I'm sure he was blowing frosting out of his nose for our entire honeymoon.

15 years feels like a blink of an eye.....
15 years feels like a lifetime.....
15 years feels like happiness.....
15 years feels like home.....

Thanks, Elias!

Just lovin' my new smile - I know I already said this, but it bears repeating - thanks so much, Elias!!

Filling in....

Im so very excited that Dan finally decided how to "fill in" all the blank spots on his sleeve. I've been so bothered by the "empty space" in between all the big pieces......
Happily, he decided to use pixel-ated squares of every color of the rainbow.....Yeah!
