Happy Birthday Abby!

I can't believe my baby's 3 already!



Birthday breakfast.

Thanksgiving pictures are up

And before Christmas even! You can see them all here.

Abby's First Recital

Abby had her first dance recital this evening. I so wish I would've recorded the whole thing instead of trying to take pictures too. None of my pictures turned out well. After the girls came out and lined up, they stood quietly looking around wondering what was going on before the music started. In the silence, one of the girls screamed "HI DADDY!" That's my girl! I'm so sad I didn't record it.

I hereby do solemnly swear to be back next week with pictures from our Thanksgiving trip. I'm at the finish line with my class, so I have a term paper due Monday and a final exam I have to take sometime next week and a chapter quiz next week. The earlier I take my tests next week, the sooner I'll be free! Then I can take the time to post pictures. On top of that stress, we're having a birthday party for Abby this Sunday so I have to clean the house, get supplies bought, fill goodie bags, cook, and bake about 3 dozen ice cream cone cupcakes because I'm crazy and thought they would be more fun than a store-bought cake. This was before it dawned on me that Monday is the due date for my paper and I kind of forgot I had to clean my house for the party. Someday I'll break myself of my evil procrastinating ways.

Happy (Week After) Halloween

This is how behind I've gotten...

Damon's parents came to visit in SEPTEMBER and I just now got the pictures uploaded. I have no excuse. We had a great time while they were here. Rita and I had some power shopping trips, and Abby loved tagging along. For the most part.

Hawaii

I finally got all the (good) Hawaii pictures uploaded to Flickr! It only took me 2-ish months. Oops! I'll be back with a real post soon. In the meantime, here are a bunch of pictures to make the grandparents happy.

A few of my favorites:
