Happy New Hair!*

January 9, 2010

We spent New Years Day 2010 watching football. Unfortunately for us, Rick was watching football with us again this year.
There’s always next year.
ANY-way. My dad invited us over to my sister’s for dinner on New Years Day, and seeing as how we were looking at having pizza for the 3rd night that week, we happily accepted!
For some reason, I took pictures of all of us at the table. And in case you were wondering, my brother-in-law really does have a face (he’s not like Wilson from Home Improvement).
After a great dinner, we rocked out to Rock Band…at …

Well, helloooo 2010!

January 5, 2010

2009 was a pretty good year for us.
Here it is in review:

January – a work trip to Tampa for me, and Rick & Mallory came along; got to see Nina & Papa
February – Mallory’s first ski trip – she loved it (I think we still need to post the video…hint, hint, RB)

Chain Chain Chain

January 1, 2010

Can you see the paper chain on my Christmas tree in this picture?

It’s sort of hard to see, so I’ll share another non-artistic picture so you can see it better:
There are two chains – a really long one and a short one.
I had a very special paper-chain maker this year:

Markers are for paper

January 1, 2010

After months of getting Ms drawn on her hands (for Michigan and for Mallory), Mallory started putting her own block Ms on her hands:
But when Mallory did this:

to her hands, we instituted a new rule in our house.
Markers are for PAPER, not for hands.

Belated Pictures

January 1, 2010

These pictures are soooooo last year.
In my busy-ness with my business (get it? my photography “business” that I’ve been so “busy” with? I’m so clever), I never posted these shots from the O-State tailgate.
Firstly – a bevy of self-portraitsCheri & me
my dad & me
 Rick’s buddy Kevin and me
Carson pulling Bryce’s hair 
Shocking…Mallory is eating!
With Rick’s buddies again – Mike & Kevin. 
With my children at the game…who’d-a-thunk we’d be coat-less at the OSU game (but I needed to scramble and get Carson a snowsuit for the Delaware State game back in October??)
