Little angels.....

So I was going through some of those pictures I found (refer to my last post). This one made me laugh. It is of Ella and her cousin Hazel. I swear I had the red eye flash on. It just wasn't strong enough to block out what was going on here. Apparently these two cannot be left alone. Hazel definitely looks as if she will be taking after her daddy.



I was, however, finally able to photo shop regular eyes on the girls. It took about 6 layers though. Don't they look sweet? Ella doesn't look like she is struggling at all with her smile.

It's my bi-weekly post!

I am really bad with our pictures. I take alot, but then I can never remember where I have downloaded them, or sometimes even on what computer I put them onto. I rarely print anything off. If my computer were to crash, I would have nothing. Anyway, I had this external harddrive that I came across the other day. I hooked it up to my computer to see what was on it. It was full of pictures. They were mostly ones of Howie when he was a baby. I found some of nieces and nephews too. I just missed my niece Violet's birthday, so I thought, in honor of her birthday, and also to celebrate my finding some of my pictures, I am going to post some of her. This was the first time I ever met Violet.

Happy birthday Violet!

Why I haven't been blogging..

I know you have all been wondering where I have been. I noticed I haven't touched my blog for quite some time. The truth is, I have been very busy......MOVING!!! I wanted to keep it a secret and suprise you all with our new house. It is just a modest little thing, not gaudy at all. But I want you all to know, you are all still welcome to visit. We would find someplace for you to sleep. There is a little extra space in the north tower.

Sydney and Vaughn saved the world!!

Well, I finally finished Alias! I know some of you were wondering what was taking me so long. It was only like 120 episodes. Why did it take me 12 days? Why could I only watch 10 episodes a day? It's because I have a family! That's right, I have four children and a husband to take care of. I don't have the time to sit around for 10 hours a day and just watch tv. What kind of person do you think I am? And just so you know, it was totally worth it! Infact, I am worried I may have overlooked something secretive in some of those episodes. So I think I will go back and watch them all with the commentary, just to make sure. I will keep you all posted on what I find out.

It is almost over

OK, I am just about to start season four. Which means I have watched 3 seasons in 7 days. There are about 75 episodes between the three seasons. Which means I am watching about 7-8 hours of Alias a day. It's a full time job. Dwight was going to keep the last two seaons from me, until I simply explained that he couldn't. (There might have been a threat thrown in with that too) But here are a list of the pro's to sitting around watching this.

1. I am not out spending money.
2. I have never had a tank of gas last me so long.
3. I have lost 5 pounds!
4. Me and Sydney have a bond that will last forever.
5. Howie is getting so much free time, and in the process learning to be more independant.

So I only have about 50 episodes left until I am done. And with it being the weekend, I am hoping to be done with this whole thing by Monday or Tuesday. I have so many questioins that need to be answered. Will Syd and Vaughn ever really get together? Will Sydney have a relationship with her sister? What is Sloans real endgame? Do I really believe in the works of Rembaldi? Who is The Trust? Who can I trust?

A New Series

I haven't had time to update. I decided to start watching the series Alias. Everyone is always talking about how good it was, or is, I don't even know if it is still going. All I know is I have spent every spare second I have had this last week watching it. (Including the last 5 hours) And I have the feeling I am being watched, or recorded right now. Hopefully it isn't by a covert operation of the CIA. Anyway, I may not be able to get a good update in until I am done with the series. I think I only have like 100 hours left.
By the way, I would like to give a shout out to my hubby, Dwight. We just celebrated our 13th anniversary. It was pretty exciting. I won't gross you out with the details. I am pretty lucky to be married to him. He is totally obsessed with me. He took this whole week off to hang out and celebrate. Again, I won't gross you out with the details, but Congratulations to us. And an early congrats to my cousin Tim and his wife Brenda, who are about to celebrate their 13th also. I only know theirs because they got married the week after us. I would have gone to your wedding, but I was on my honeymoon.

Gangsta Gus

Dad has been acting wierd lately. I stopped by to check on him the other day. It may just be a mid-life crisis thing, but we may need to have a family council about it. I tried to get some pictures to give you an idea of what we are dealing with here.
