Sorry I have been MIA. My readers have been emailing me asking for a new post and I am trying not to let them down. :) I have a HORRIBLE camera and I have not been taking any pictures. Which is really sad. This time last year my camera broke and I was not posting much and then Steve bought me a new one for Christmas...and well now that one is broke too....
Anyone with a extra "paparazzi" camera laying around? If so please send to me at.....
I have a little extra time on my hands and just wanted to send a shout out to all my fans :). HELLO MANDY! I am sitting on the couch waiting for "Ghost Rider" the movie to be over. Steve and my brother somehow have gotten into the movie and so I am surfing the Internet looking for black Friday deals. Yes...I have looked at camera's but just can't find what I want under $500. How sad is that?
So most likely my lack of posting will continue! Hope everyone is having a great thanksgiving. I am enjoying mine with my parents, grandfather, brother, sister-in-law, niece and nephew!

Back to School
We have had a BIG first week of school. Mary Alice and Charlie both started school at the Downtown Elementary. Mary Alice is in first grade and Charlie is in their preschool program. They are both going the full day (8:30-3:30).
Charlie with one of his teachers Mrs. Geyer
Mary Alice with her teacher Mrs. Best
Dubus is a Boston Terrier (he does not have the normal markings). He has really been a delight! I am wondering when the "honeymoon" is going to be over. He is very loving and OBEDIENT!
The kids were so surprised when they got home...they are in LOVE!
And just when you think the week can't get any better Uncle Landon called and was in Charlotte for business and came to spend Wednesday night with us.....
Mary Alice and Charlie were soooooo excited...
We love and miss you Uncle Landon!
After the first day of school on Tuesday I picked up the kids and asked them "Well how was your first day of school Mary Alice?" And in her most animated expression she answered " It was WONDERFUL". I then asked Charlie the same question, and with a grumpy face he said "actually NOT".
Those answers pretty much sum up how each of my children feel about school. Mary Alice loves school and Charlie would rather just stay home!

As soon and I dropped of the kids I drove up to Mt. Airy to pick up our new puppy....because I have NO idea what I would do with all my "free" time while the kids are in school I decided to get a puppy.....
Let me introduce...........Dubus Duce Hirst
It is really hard to photograph a puppy......

Texas in July
In July we made the big trip home to Texas! The kids and I were there for almost 2 weeks. It was great to be with everyone. Our first stop was Harlingen! We had soooo much fun July 4th at Uncle Wayne's. I really wish I had some pictures of the night....I will have to work on that!
The kids were amazing together. We went to the beach, schlitterbaun, swam in the pool and really just enjoyed being together.
One night we just sat around, played the guitar and the kids danced and even sang some themselves! The kids also each made a garden stone...for Mamma's patio. They turned out really cool...thanks Eric and Kari.
Neely and Mary Alice dancing
Charlie and Elaine dancing

Coach and Jordan singin' the blues
"The Hangout""
"Peace out" .....as the kids would say....
Up next....Houston and Camp Hollymont!

Whacked Fairy Tales
It is official..Mary Alice has appeared in her very first play. She was a cow in "click, clack, moo" which was a part of the bigger production "Whacked Fairy Tales". It was unbelievable really. The production consisted of children ages 5-17yrs old. To see children act and remember their lines at such a young age was amazing to me. The play was about an hour long and the children had no help. It really was a real performance.
Here are some pictures!
