Stamp Some Smiles

My happy kids

   Here are my happy kids, well, they aren't all kids any more...Bobby is 21 Mat will soon be 18...Jilly is starting High School, and Jake...well he is my kid, even though he is a dog!  I had a chance to catch them all at home at the same time, RARE...and I FORCED them to sit for a photo...but you know what?  They didn't mind.  They were happy.  I am so glad they understand my need to capture moments in time, right from when they were babies none of them really minded getting their picture taken, even Jake!  LOL

My dad has been in the hospital, with Congestive Heart Failure and his kidneys aren't working. I have so many wonderful memories of growing up with my dad, but very few photos.  Go hug your kids today and take a picture or two...they will appreciate it someday.   Please keep our family in your thoughts as we pray for a speedy recovery.  Sorry I have been so quiet, I promise to share a card or two this week.

NSR, Family Fun

I uploaded some pics of our family fun night, after eating dinner together (rare occassion with my scedule, Bobby's work schedule, and Mat having a job too)

It was so nice to sit with everyone and visit.  Sarah was over (Bobby's girlfriend) and she joined us and colored eggs afterwards.  We missed Amber this year,(Mat's girlfriend)  she is away due to her grandfather's passing.  It was a nice night and the "kids" were all silly as usual, I am so glad they still enjoy this tradition.  We love anything artistic here.   Don't forget you can add rub on's to your eggs to pretty them up or try adding some sparkle with Dazzling Diamonds!

 

Pumpkin carvin'

No stampin' tonight, carvin' instead! Here are some fun pics of my family tonight, yes...we waited until the last minute, it is almost a tradition now! Somehow we misplaced all but one pumpkin carving "knife" and ended up using all sorts of kitchen utensils trying to make our pumpkins. It was fun! Here's wishing everyone a fun and safe night!
