Christmas with the Cahoons

My mom and dad are the best. They are so generous, and they are such good parents and grandparents. Thank you for a wonderful Christmas, and Cahoon family reunion!

Sisters. How fun to be together...can you believe that there is an 8 year gap between each of us? You would never know...we get along great, and look the same age, right? (I hope that isn't offensive to Ashley, but I was really just trying to comment on how youthful Wendy and I look! :)

So, I thought it would be fun to be the sibling suffering from bedhead, but good to have a picture of us nonetheless! I am privileged to be related to all of you and your amazing spouses. Here's to more get togethers in the future!

My Handyman

There is much to blog, but I had to do this first. David often surprises me with something when I return from a trip, and this time he made a bed! I couldn't believe it! It looks just like the picture! (He had talked about making a bed before I left.) The room was really clean too. Every woman's dream, right?! Thank you David, it is so good to be home! :)

Twilight

So...I went to the midnight showing of Twilight on the first day. I kind of thought th movie might be lame, but I won't turn down an opportunity to do something fun with friends! (I don't often enjoy a movie after I have read the book) We went to the Olive Garden first, and some of the smarter girls among us went home after that. I would be willing to add that my review of the movie could have something to do with the fact that I was tired, but it was the cheesiest, lamest movie I have seen in a while. I was a little sad, because the books are so good. Sorry if that ruins it for anyone that hasn't gone, but sometimes it is good to have low expectations! All in all it was a fun night. The crowd at the theatre was...enjoyable, and I had some good laughs! Tara, Janene, Jessica, Bree and Claudia, it was a blast! (And the Olive Garden crowd...Andrea, Hillary, Cassie and Heather) Let's do it again, at an earlier time...better movie...etc.!

Halloween

I just wanted to put Halloween pictures on here...these are post trick or treating, so Marik looks funny...he was a box of crayons, with a kind of clownish face. David did his hair, and enhanced his and Porter's costume. I have to say I don't get into Halloween at all, so good thing David was there to spruce everyone up a bit! I included the last picture because Marik is on my lap and he laughed his head off when he saw this picture...it was so funny!

Well....crap. It turns out that leaving out your Jack 'O Lanterns is quite a bit different when it is warm outside instead of like a fridge. I guess we will know for next year!

Florida Hair

So...as I have mentioned before, I have hair problems here in Florida, and the humidity just makes it really hard to look cute... ever.
I don't know if this will help, but it is worth a try, and my head feels lighter, so that is good. :)

Trying to figure out what angle to hold my head to
the best view....

Flashback '03

I had something else in mind to post today, but I can't get the scanner working right now, so this will have to do. Some pictures from the good old days when I frequented WalMart for my kids pictures. I am so glad cameras are so much better, and digital now. I have a large stack to scan in, so stay tuned for when my tech guy, aka David helps me out. :)
