Stacey and Chris's Big Day

Congrats to Stacey and Chris a Month ago. It's a little late but you know how it goes. I am sorry that I didn't post more pictures of the two of you but I am telling ya, my photography is scary and so are the pictures.

Holland Family Festivities

Eating some steak thanks to Dave and his trading skills.
Say "Cheese"
Josh riding the Birthday Saddle.
Dave waiting to play a little game we call tennis.
Sophie and baby Jack. This is the best picture I got because someone is following in her daddy's footsteps.
Kate and Sophie enjoying being out with the Holland family.
Jeff riding the Birthday Saddle. Giddy up Cowboy.
Mike, Steph, and baby Jack.
Sophie going in for a kiss. I will be keeping my eyes on this one.
Kate adoring her cousin. Kate loved playing, holding, and talking to baby Jack.
Who couldn't resist this little munchkin. I certainly can't.
Baby Sam, or what the Droubays like to call him Charlie Brown.
Some kind of action shot of Jeff and Mike playing tennis. I apologize for the bad photography. Not one of my talents.

Seven Day's of Posting

Kate after her first performance and she is looking a little dazed and confused. Maybe a little sick too.
Looking a little more relaxed, this is one of her many poses.
Looking a little scared. I don't think she really was into all of this performing stuff. I am right there with her.
Lucy and Kate feeling very happy that they are all done. They both did a great job.
This picture says it all. Kate was nervous and not to excited about her dance recital. This was taken before she had to go on stage. Bless her little heart.
Yes, I believe that a tear was about to fall, but the show must and will go on.
There were no smiles before she had to go on stage.
Dave, Mimi, Sophie, and cousin Eden all cheering Kate on.
Kate is in the front row at the end. I am proud of her because I didn't think she was going to make it on the stage but she did thanks to her Aunt Amy.


I have decided after all the comments I get about not updating my blog that I am going to do a new post for seven days straight. So for all of those who have been giving me crap, well eat your hearts out! (you know who you are)

The last few months

This is Kate's masterpiece. Sophie loved every minute because she was getting constant attention by her sister.
Easter
Kate practicing her sandwich artist skills.
Aunt Keri helping Kate find her easter eggs and gifts at Nana's house.
Sophie modeling what her Aunt Natalie made for her. Yes, my sister crocheted the hat, sweater, and blanket.
Mom and Sophie enjoying the beach.

Mimi, Aunt J, and Neils. My mom is always cold, and since she didn't pack her winter parka she had to use the towel instead.
Kate and Lily saying their good byes.
Kate enjoying herself while creating the masterpiece.

Baby Neils posing for me. This is my favorite picture of this little guy.
Sophie sitting all by herself. I am such a proud mama.
The gang getting ready to go have some fun at the beach.
Kate and Lily at the nudist beach. I did not agree with their decision but they wanted to show off their hot bods. Kate just said to me " I do not want to be naked again." I just had a good laugh.

HAPPY 30th to JaNae!!!!!!
