Snow Bowl 2008

Today Ted and a bunch of his buddies braved the cold and snow to play in the Snow Bowl 2008. They went down to the local field and played a game of football. I was only there for a little while, but it sure looked like they were having fun! Check out this link to see some pictures from the game... even if you don't have facebook, you can still see the album.

No TEARS!!!

I know! I've been seriously MIA on this poor blog of mine, but I intend to change that! That's DEFINITELY going to be one of my New Years Resolutions.... KEEP UP WITH THIS BLOG!

But, until then, here's a shot of Jakey and Ash with Santa today.... this is the FIRST picture with Santa with NO TEARS from EITHER OF THEM in FIVE YEARS!!! YEY!!!!!
Proud mommy!

It's Christmas!

Wow, I can't believe it's only 18 days till Christmas! It came so fast... wasn't it just summer last week?! I have to say, I am so happy to be slowing down in work and have the chance to really enjoy spending time with the kids.
Last night we put the tree up and got the house looking all festive! We did hot chocolate and listened to xmas music... life is good. All the sudden I feel like I can take a deep breath and relax a little. I do have a few more shoots this month, but nothing compared to the craziness of the last few months.

We're going to do a little more home renos over the next couple months too... maybe finish the bathrooms and clean up the laundry room. That's always exciting! Pictures to come of course!! ;)

Anyways, I'll totally be posting a year end post in a couple weeks, where I"ll be posting a bunch of images that I meant to share during the year!... some are really funny!
Stay tuned!!

Glory Days!!!

So my Teddy got to go out on Grey Cup Sunday to play some pigskin with the boys... I don't think he's played football in AT LEAST 6 or 7 years. I think a little part of him was seriously reliving those junior football days when he was the big fish. ;) He was so cute to watch!








And YES this is the same man who has had FOUR knee surgeries... on the SAME knee!! He was sure feeling it the next day(s).

He Broke My Heart

So as most of you know, Ash was sicky sick last week with a fever and a slight flu. I hate it when my kids are sick... it almost makes me sick myself. :(

Well despite all the hoping that Jake wouldn't get it... he did. He woke up yesterday morning with a fever of 103! I managed to keep it down with advil most of the day but then he woke up at about 2am with a high fever again and this time puking as well. Jake has never really puked before so he was soooooo upset and scared and couldn't stop crying and whimpering.

Well all the comotion must have woke up Ash and when she came into our room she was DISTRAUGHT that we were all watching cartoons while she had to sleep. We were trying to talk her down when all the sudden Jake spoke up in his little whimpering voice and said:

"Don't be sad Ashwee, Don't be sad like me."

I just about burst out in to tears myself. Talk about heart breaking!!!

Photo!

Cause I need more photos on here.... this first one is just a funny one I took of Ash a while back and the bottom one is one of Jakey in our front yard a month or so ago. LOL

BAD BLOGGER!!!

Wow! It's been a month since I've blogged!! And I have so much to say, but just soooooo busy!!
Luckily, December is coming up, and I have taken the whole month off! Wahoo!!! I'll be able to pop my head up to breathe (and blog)!

What better way to jump back in the saddle than to give my blog a little makeover!! Hope you like it!! Only a couple weeks before I'll be decorating it for Christmas! LOL

Anyways, I wanted to give you all the link to slideshow of our family shoot!! The fabulous Shannon Stevenson of Lucy Lime did our shoot a while back and I would love for you all to see it!
