Photos this morning before school
Hayley was just too cute this morning. It is going to hit 70 degrees so she was dragging out cute spring stuff to wear. Quick, someone stop her from growing up before I go nuts! And yes, the sweater over the shoulders was Hayles’ idea – my little preppie in training tickles me! read more →

Hayley and her friend Abigail had a sleepover tonight. At some point we got the fine idea to make a music video. So they wrote a song, dressed up like rockers and put on makeup. They worked out playing it (Abigail on lead vocals with Hayley on drums and backup vocals) and I taped them… read more →
Photos: Sleeping angels
Hayley came down and curled up on the couch while I was working on some tricky code. I looked over and found Annabelle asleep parallel to her, which her puppy arm draped across Hayley. When I got up, Annabelle moved to put her head on her elbow. Complete cute overload! read more →
Photo Gallery: Disney
I finally slogged through getting these edited and online. It is now 3:32am but I’m giddy – from being punchy true but also from seeing all these photos again of everyone there (me, Jeff, Hayley, Uncle Jay, Grandma Sharen and Grandpa John). Thanks to Jeff’s folks for this great trip. There are hundreds of photos.. read more →

It starts with a Christmas Eve tradition where we make gingerbread house … and this year it was a triplex … three kits put together … And it ends with our Christmas day tradition where we pick off what we want, haul it to the cul de sac and smash it with remote control cars.. read more →
