Our Family Photos 2010

Family Photos

Here are a few family shots that my friend, Tiffany, took of us last week. More to come . . .

(Henry was looking over my shoulder while I was putting this post together. He said, "I have a cute smile.") :)

I love this little face!

Drool and all!

Sadie's Soccer Team

The Wildcats played their last game today, which was none too soon, because it was freezing out there! They did not have a winning season, but I guess you can tell from the picture that they had a fun season. And, that's all that really matters anyway (well, that, and the snacks :))! They are going to play indoor soccer this winter, where it will be nice and warm. Go Wildcats!

Sadie's coach took some pics of the team below:

My blue-eyed beauty!


A serious shot:

And, a goofy shot:

The Masked Marvel

Friday, I took Samuel and Henry to see Michael Cooper - The Masked Marvel at the Tulsa Performing Arts Center. It was a great show and I would encourage you to take the whole family to see it sometime. He creates his own masks out of paper mache and they are magical. Here were a couple of our favorites:

This one he made after he had been bitten by a dog as boy. It was his attempt to make a "friendly" dog.

This one was the "giant". He stood on stilts and danced around the stage as if he were on his own feet. Very impressive! This man is very talented and the boys and I loved it!

Halloween

We took the kids to downtown Broken Arrow for trick or treating on Saturday night, and then w/ some friends of ours to downtown Catoosa on Sunday night.



Meet Jane Bennett, Elizabeth Bennett and Emma Woodhouse, characters from Jane Austen's novels Pride and Prejudice and Emma. Their meemaw made these dresses for them and my mom did their hair. They looked absolutely gorgeous!

At the Catoosa carnival, there was a booth that was giving away jars full of candy if you could say all 66 books of the Bible. Elizabeth and Sadie were able to and each got one!

20 years ago today . . .

. .I married the man of my dreams. I love you, Babe!

Song of Soloman 2:16 - My beloved is mine and I am his.

Virus

A virus made its unwelcome appearance in our home this week. It started w/ the baby and Sadie. This is pretty much what we've been doing these past few days, laying around like a bunch of hound dogs.

Our upstairs is done!

Well, we finally have our upstairs complete (except for the bathroom). They laid the carpet on Monday and it looks great! Aaron did such a good job w/ everything. We haven't really been able to fully enjoy yet, because a stomach virus hit our family this week and the kids have been under the weather. We hope to have the boys moved up upstairs this weekend though.

Aaron built this himself:

New Pics

Here are a couple of new pics of Silas and Henry that I thought were cute:

Silas had this taken in his Sunday School Class.

Henry's 7 year old picture that I finally had made in September.

Sophie Belle

I just had to post this picture of Sophie:

This is what she looks like when she comes out of her room in the morning. She got a make-up kit for her birthday (thanks to Aunt Melissa and Uncle Lance) and can't seem to do w/out her make-up now. We were in the car a few days ago on our way to piano lessons, and I hear Sophie in the back seat say "Oh, I forgot to put my make-up on!" It's cute. . . for now :)

Saturday's Competition

Lizzy did very good playing her piece Saturday, but she was not chosen. :( They allowed me to go in during the competition, and I was able to video her performance. I've included it below. Her daddy and I are very proud of her and how far she has come! God has given her a wonderful gift!

Jr. Audition

Lizzy will be competing tomorrow (Saturday) in a Junior Audition. Pray for her, because she is nervous. This is the song she will be playing. She told me today at her piano lesson that Mrs. Hill had tears in her eyes at the end of her song. I don't know if it was because she played it so well, or that the song is so beautiful. We'll let you know the outcome . . .

Song in my heart

I've had this song on my heart the last few days. Thought I would share it w/ you:

Tickle Me Nicky

Nic loves to be tickled. He will start laughing before you even touch him. So cute!

Teeth and Feet

Nic has two more teeth!


And, I couldn't resist taking this picture of his little toes. He keeps them curled when he is sitting up :) Looks like he grabbed some of my hair, too!
