Merry Christmas!






Here are a few pictures taken at our house on Christmas! Look at the newest member of our family - Rocky (Megan, Rex, and Paige's new boxer puppy).

Long Time No Blog











I know it's been so long since I've adding anything to our blog but it's been super busy at work. I haven't even had much time to do any scrapbooking. But I did go to a Black Friday Crop with my friends Patti and Mindy and met some new ladies, Dawn and Trish. Here are a few of the layouts I did at the crop.

Andrea babysat Emma last night so Stacie and Werner could go to the Oasis concert and stay in the city. Since Andrea only has a double bed in her apartment, I suggested they come to our house and spend the night. It was great seeing them both and making them Mom Mom's Eggs for breakfast this morning. Emma ate her bacon and hash browns and hadn't touched her eggs. I was worried that she no longer liked them and when I asked her if she was going to eat any eggs, she replied "I'm saving the best for last" and ended up eating every bite!

And can you believe it is only five days until Christmas? We are hosting Christmas again this year and I can't wait for all the excitment! We have a new member of our extended family this year. Patti and Todd (my ex-hubby's stepdaughter and her hubby) have a new baby named Peyton. I remember last Christmas when they announced there would be a new member of our family next Christmas! I feel so blessed that we all get along so well and that we are "FAMILY"!

Our Visit to Tulsa


I know I told some family members I'd post pictures of Jace which I haven't done yet, but I managed to do a layout this weekend at a Scrap Pink Crop which included two pictures. Isn't he the cutest? Such a cool little guy! I'll post some additional pictures soon. I promise!!

Paige turns six!







Paige tuned six on August 30th and had her party on September 6th at Kidz Rule. Here are a few of the pictures we were able to capture the short time she was standing still.

Butterfly Girl!


Stacie and Emma came down to our house on Saturday and spent Saturday and Sunday night. On Sunday they went to the Camden Aquarium with Grammy & Grandpop. Emma had her face painted as a butterfly. You'll be sure to see this photo in a layout in the very near future!

Layout I did this weekend


I've been wanting to do this layout for quite awhile and asked Emma some questions back in February. But when I went to create the layout, I realized I didn't have any pictures of the two of us so I used two that were taken on Easter Sunday at Patty and Todd's house. I think I'm going to try to do this every year and ask the same questions to see how Emma's answers change. I want to do the same thing with Paige and hopefully Jace too!

Ed's Birthday Dinner





The kids make fun of us because we go out to dinner so early but we love it because we don't need to deal with all the crowds. We normally just sit at the bar when it's the two of us. We develop a relationship with the bartender(s) and get great service. We were going to go to P.F. Chang's but decided on Redstone American Grill. It was awesome. We started with calamari (which was made unlike any I've had before) and then we both had a petite filet with a horseradish crust. Then for dessert we had Banana Cream Pie which wasn't really a pie but it was TO DIE FOR! I took my crappy Sony Cyber Shot and didn't get any good pictures but here are the best ones!

Go Eagles

Are you ready for some football? The team looked great in last night's pre-season game against The Patriots. I don't know how I became so obsessed with this team and game but Brian Westbrook is what started this obsession. Ed would have the game on every week and I'd ocassionally walk by to see the score, but never really sat and watched. Then one Sunday a few weeks after Westbrook started with The Eagles, I passed by and saw this little (well little in football terms) guy doing this incredible run down the field. He stopped me in my tracks, I sat down to watch some more and have watched every single game since them! GOOOOOOOOO EAGLES!

Who me - start a blog? Ed's 60th birthday!

I can't believe I'm going to try this but I figure it's time to join the rest of the scrapping world and start a blog. Today is Ed's 60th birthday (and in only 3 short months I'll be joining him). The plan for the day is to hang around the house in the morning and early afternoon and then head out for an early dinner. Hopefully we can go to P.F. Chang's because it is the "hot" spot just opening in the newly rennovated Plymouth Meeting Mall. Happy Birthday Sweetie
