Aren't these guys handsome? It is so fun to have such cuties that dress up every sunday. What would we do without them? Marshall bought these latest sunday best clothes for them , because they both decided that white shirts are what they needed to where to church. What good boys!

Baby Lily's first Birthday!

Little Lily had her first birthday! She looked so darling, and was so happy. Candace baked her some very special cupcakes with polka dots and little Lilly loved them! She received a lot of very cute presents including some fun books! She loves to look at books and squeal with delight and point to all of the babys. Pizza and bread sticks were served with pop. It was a fun night. I can't believe these little ones grow up so fast! And yes she can walk! So she made the one year walking deadline. We love you Lily.

Sundance film Festival 2009!

Liz and Chelsie being the stars they are.....

So evidently Chelsie was spotted as "Katy Perry" 6 times up there......it is getting to be a regular occurance for her lately!

Can I even name the stars the girls got pictures with? I don't think so!!!!! Patton Oswalt or "spence" from King of Queens... Mark Harmon, from Freaky Friday and NCIS....Demi Moore, They met Ashton Kutcher, Gaby Hoffmann from Now and Then, and Sleepless in Seattle...Wesley Snipes, Tom arnold, Frankie______, Paris Hilton, Jack Nicholson, Alan Cumming,Daniel Franzese, and somebody fron E.R..... well every year they have a list like this! So they never miss Sundance Film Festival in Park City Utah. The backdrop of the town and the mountains are truly BREATHTAKING !

My silly girls....plotting their next paparazzi photo!!!!

Ewan McGregor with Chelsie and Candace, they are big fans of his!I think it's great when the actors take the time for their fans...

This huge doggy was following every one around and was evidently needing a star photo as well . So Natasha took a photo with him.

Well, i love his song too! this is the guy that sings"Hey there Delilah" Tom Higgenson from The Plain white T's

Pictures in winter

I get anxious for flowers and sunny weather....I'm pretty sure I can get the S.A.D.(seasonal affected disorder) pretty easily any time the sun goes behind the clouds let alone in winter!!!!!!!! But there is always beauty around when you seek it...right?I love to watch the birds and the sunsets.... I have a great window for viewing the sunsets, and well... they are usually pretty spectacular! My bird watching is usually from the help of my ZOOM camera... it may be a little poor quality when viewing a bird from a window to my backyard tree ...but it helps..........

Elijah was tagged quite a while ago.....before the accidental deleting of my blogs...

Elijah is a wonderful child (of course) He is beautiful and great fun! Here are 5 unique things about him...

1.He is the last of eight children!Not many kids can say that these days!!! He has a brother who is 23 years older than him...quite a span there!

2.Elijah was practically born with a crayon in his hand...literally ! He would choose drawing over absoloutely anything else ...not unlike his oldest brother! Elijah definately has a gift.

3. He has 9 little children that call him uncle Elijah! 3 of them that are his own age!!!!!

4. He is quite a little fishy , and stays under the water more than above it when he is swimming.

5.He is quite a little actor almost to the extreme.... When he decides to be a monkey for instance it could last for days........just ask his siblings.......

Elijah is so lovable , and being the youngest of so many he really can do no wrong?????

He would like to tag; Abby A., Greyson E., Lucy S., Malachi D., and Madeline Y.

Our sweet little grandson!!

We are so happy that little Abe was born!! What a blessing from above!! Mom and baby are doing fine after an eventful delivery! What a way to ring in the new year!!!!!!

Wonderful Wintery White
