Chrisa's Wedding (During & After)

Maybe this will be the last post of the wedding for a while, or maybe just until I run across some more pictures..:)

Chrisa's Wedding (Morning Of)

There are so many good pictures, it is hard to choose which ones to post. I tried to do a slide show of them but after three attempts I finally called it quits and stuck to the route I was familiar with. These are the getting ready process.




Uncle Randy & Aunt Missy (the photographers)...

The program attendants...

The guys...The girls...Naomi & Matthew...
Uncle Tim, Aunt Kathy and Elizabeth...

Chrisa's Wedding (Rehersal)

I had not realized until a few weeks ago that I did not even have a folder for September pictures, thus the lack of posts. :) So, maybe this post will make up for it! As most of you already know Chrisa and Sam were married on September 20th! There is no possible way I could post all the pictures so I will do a few posts so as not to overwhelm....hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we have!

The photographer and wedding coordinator...

The musicians...

I thought this picture of the nephews and nieces was quite funny! Will & Alena look like they are being choked, Mya thinks it's all over, while Gabe and RuthAnne are smiling away...

Dad's Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Dad!! Love ya lots!

Happy Labor Day!

We had a discussion in our house about Labor Day and none of us involved new what exactly Labor Day entailed. I searched on the net and I found some details about it (. So while I should be studying and learning about cells and such I am doing a post about Labor Day. (If you'd like to know more about it Wikpedia was quite helpful :)
Here a few facts:
It originated in 1882 as the Central Labor Union (of NYC) for a day off for working citizens
Congress made it an official holiday in 1894 and is celebrated in all 50 states
Traditionally Labor Day is celebrated by American as the symbolic end of summer
Has been celebrated on the first Monday in September (in the U.S.) since the 1800's
Now if some asks you about Labor Day you can tell them with a 'few random facts'. Meanwhile I should get back to learning! I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day!

Rubber

As some of you know I have been searching for a car. The search has now come to an end...

The Mix-Up

Ms. Daisy went to the vet this week and here is what they informed us of....

yes, oh yes! Daisy is a BOY!!! Ha! too bad Daisy is not a gender neutral name!! Last night, after many suggestions for another name, Andy Griffith was the inspiration. Below is Barney, who is much to mama's delight, laying in the middle of her flower.

Niece and Nephew

Carrie, RuthAnne and Will were here today and here are some of our fun times...

Will played on the floor...

while R.A. played with water and cooked soup...

RuthAnne then informed me that what she is holding was a leaf then she said it was 'bocci' (broccoli). I think she has the basic concept down....

I also would like to report that Ms. Daisy was actually caught cleaning herself today! I tried to get a pic of her in the act but instead she attacked my camera strap...

we also played on the playground where RuthAnne enjoyed watching 2 deer graze...

and Will was pushed in the stroller by Grandmama

Saturday Evening

Turkey Spotting

This morning we counted 35 turkeys in our back yard! It was fun watching the little ones run out of the woods to catch up!! :)
