"These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things".....

1.) School starting....

2.)Sewing
I made book bags for the girls but didn't get them finished until the second week of school. They had been begging me for a few weeks and couldn't wait to show them off. Times have certainly changed when your child wants to show off her homeade goodies that her mommy made other than treats. Thats also because styles have changed and the fact that the fabrics are so meaningful for them. I'm just ecstatic that they appreciate them so much. Paris's is eiffel towers and polka dots and Khalia's is a mixture of hawaiian flowers and other cordinating pieces ( Thank You Amy Butler and Strawberry Patches for the perfect fabric.)

3.)Silly family photos:

Jack trying not to smile ...

but not for long.

Being goofy is his trademark.

Love the photo of these best buddies.

I know... don't say anything.

but you can about him.....

She has gorgeous eyes that glimmer a yellowish green color in the sunlight.

She has a tounge about a mile long. ( and can seriously touch her nose with it too)



and he is still handsome looking like this.

The End.........................


4.)And last but not least....Great friends and brand new babies:


This was the day she went in to have that sweet baby boy...And this was almost 36 hours later.

Born on August 27th, I am proud to introduce

Gage Joseph Silliman.

He weighed in at 7lbs. 14. oz. and 2o in. long.

He is going to be a very adventureous little dude if he is anything like his mommy and daddy which I bet he will. Congratulations Nathan and Kathy. We Love You!
