Happy Birthday to an amazing woman! We could never thank you enough for all you do for us. We love you. Hope you had a great birthday!

Choir Photos

Monday was picture day at choir so I thought I'd share a few cute pics from the event just because some of these kids are just too adorable not to see, even if you don't know who they are. And then, of course, there's my crazy kid. Enjoy!

A day of History exploration

Cele here. Mom says I have to do this entry since she wasn't there and I actually know what's going on in the pictures. So.... I cheated and made a MOVIE hahaha. I took 109 photos on this trip so I had to take a few out. I hope you enjoy!

Happy Birthday!!!

Amid all the craziness that was Celestra involved in a musical, we had a 14th birthday. To celebrate, Cele had a board game themed birthday party the day after the musical ended. And boy can a room full of teenagers be noisy and entirely too entertaining! Fun was to be had by all, especially the birthday girl.

 life is good. I has FOOD!

 Playin' 'Curses' with my crazy friends

 Food and games, they need nothing more

 Hmm...what shall we do next...

 The crazy game of life

 How does this thing work?!

Ashley and Cele: They hadn't seen each other in about 7 years

A Night at the Wax Museum

It's performance time, and this time its not a regular music concert! For the last few months Cele has been in constant rehearsals to get ready for her schools debut of the musical 'A Night at the Wax Museum.' Cele plays the part of Julene Fairchild, an old lady and one of the curators of the museum as well as the aunt of the main female lead. Its a fairly major part and she's had a blast. The work has paid off and the kids have done a great job on the show. Tomorrow is the final night!

Just Pupping around

Maya, our puppy, is now about seven months old. Still full of all that puppy energy and excitement. She's also gotten HUGE too. But we still love her tons. She's lots of fun now and loves all the typical dog things. Long walks, playing with her best puppy friend Krissy (our upstairs neighbors dog), playing with any and all of her toys, especially those that squeak, car rides, and playing with mommy and big sister Cele.

Look mommy I got ahold of Uncle Jack's yucky, smelly old shoe. Good thing he doesn't wear them any more because I think they make great toys!

Just Chillaxing

Whas up

You Raaang

aren't I just oh so adorables?!
