song

Here is a video that we got of the girls signing a primary song "I Know That My Savior Loves Me". It's a few months old, but I love to watch it. Listen for Maren's vibrato. She cracks me up!

I've got moves you've never seen before!

In case any of you wanted further evidence that Jess is in fact also related to Carol (behaviorally she is much more like me) here is this video. If any of you have seen me dance, you know that I don't dance like that (I don't have that much rhythm). Oh, and that is Cora supplying the strobe light. Enjoy.

Redemption.....hopefully

This post is dedicated to my little sister who was bitterly dissapointed in the # of pictures I posted last time. So, little sister of mine (you know who you are) this is for you. Enjoy!

This picture is so cute. I think that we were heading home from Ft.Worth one Sunday in March or April. I looked back and saw that. Maren got a raw deal. Poor thing.
This was sometime this last summer in our front yard with a neighbor girl.
Yes, I know that these pics are not recent but oh well. Here is Miss Lizzie on the first day of 2nd grade.
Jess Bess on her first day of 1st grade.
The three girls on the first day of school!!

School started a few days before Maren's 4th birthday so we got to celebrate her birthday with all of her new friends in Pre-K! Her teacher even gave her a birthday crown.
Emmett loves shoes.....especially mine and Josh's. No, I am not worried about him! He's fine.
Emmett making a cute face at me/the camera. He loves the camera. Anytime he sees me with it he stops whatever he is doing and faces me while he says "teese"
I hope that ya'll are pleased with the pics. I also wanted to include a funny little story about Maren that happened a few days ago.

We were all in the truck driving home when Jessica smells a stinky smell and starts accusing everyone in the car if they are the culprit. When Maren is accused she defends her self saying: "NU, UH, my body doesn't make toots that smell!" We all burst out laughing, which made her start sobbing. In between breaths she declared to everyone that we hurt her feelings. Oops!

Catching up.....sort of

Ok, so there have been a few people (Josh, Coco, and Julie) that have been getting after me to post. And to make good on my promise to them, I am now posting.

Because I blog so infrequently, blogging is a learning process every time I post.......so the pics are in reverse order I wanted them and I don't know how to fix it. Oh, well.

Here we have Jess in the lineup first. She wanted me to take a pic of her with her very first lost tooth!

Yep!!!! Jessica got glasses. Her teacher noticed that she was squinting to see the board and that her work was alway incomplete/wrong. So, she is the proud owner of "The Little Mermaid" glasses!! With seashells on the sides!!!! It is quite exciting!!
A couple weeks ago Cheyenne, Meredith their two beautiful kids came for a visit. It was about 10 min before they left when I realized that we hadn't taken any pics. So I hurried and got a few. Here is Taylor. I am her favorite aunt on the Fish side.......and I will fight any of her other Fish Aunts who say otherwise!
Here is Ethan.....I don't think that I am his favorite. But I love him anyway.
I am running out of time, so this is the "cousins". They are so stinkin' cute.
Sorry this post is so short. Josh needs his computer(with all the pics) to go to work. So I find myself blogging at 6 am before he leaves. I will try to write a little more later......but if not, it should hold you over for a month or so.
