{spooky party}

I had my birthday party with my cousin Penelope because we both have birthdays during October. we had a spooky party at the park and we had a costume contest. even Daxie and Res (the dogs) dressed up. I won a prize for the "scariest costume" because I am the bride of Frankenstein this year. We even had a little witch pinata. I had a really good birthday!

Hi everyone, Gabby here. Since it's my Birthday month I'm going to be blogging you all. I 've had a good month so far I got to dog sit Daxie for the UEA weekend, she was a lot of fun but a little bit hyper. I took these pictures of her myself I am practicing for the Reflections Contest at my school. I entered in the category of photography, this years theme is "WOW". I also got the part of Aphrodite for the lightening thief play my class is doing. Aphrodite is my favorite character, so this will be so fun!!

{gaberdine}






Wow, its so hard for me to believe my little Gabbers is going to be 10! my youngest, my baby... 10! She is a total girly girl who loves getting dressed up for an occasion, she loves all that girly stuff like accessories, makeup, and lotions.... but she is also a bit of a tomboy, she likes to ride dirt bikes and go 4 wheelin' with Aunt Lhasa and Uncle J in the Bronco with the top down, and she LOVES scary roller coasters. I would say she is a pretty well rounded little girl, most the time she doesn't have a care in the world, she is very easy going {but she does have her drama queen moments} she is full of love and life. she is very creative, she writes stories and illustrates them and would publish them if she could {she even adds a cute little "about the author" page at the end} she sings and loves music {notice her playlist has been added to our blog for her birthday month} she is a talented, strong, smart, brave, sweet, happy, confident girl... and she makes us very proud to be her parents.

{shout out to my girl}


Well it's official... my BFF Shannon and her family has up and moved to Georgia. I know it's hard shugga but I have faith that you will all be back someday {even if I have to sabotage Adams job myself... oh wHOops, did I say sabotage? I meant NOT sabotage...lol} but in the meanwhile, live it up baby! take in everythig Georgia has to offer.. I think it would be exciting to move to a completely different place than i was used to... change is good... good until I start missing you, and want to go to lunch or something, but even though we wont get to see each other whenever we want, I will always be just a phone call or email or blogpost away. I love you and support you for standing by your man {no matter how insane his ideas are} just as you have always loved and stood by me! Thank you Shannon for your unconditional love and support, and always having faith in me. I love ya girl! and with as much as Adam and I tease each other, you would think he gets on my nerves a little bit... but not really, i actually miss that too... I cant even think about the kids without crying, I love those kids like they were my own, Shannon you have to start posting video clips of the kids on your blog, I just cant stand to think i might be missing anything like my cute little Tay saying "no, I was being gross" give them all a hug and kiss from me and I want to hear all about their first day at school...

{big fish... or not so much}



After Rem's birthday he was dying to try out his new fishin' pole and tackle box so Dad, Aunt Lhasa and Uncle Jason took him fishing at a nearby fishin' pond... he caught 5 fish!!! they were puny little fish and they just let them go, but he was so excited he couldn't wait to tell me all about it, and how Uncle J let him go through his tackle box and take whatever he wanted, hes really proud of all his fishing gear. he has even organized everything in his tackle box for next time. so cute :)

{Remy's skate party}

Well sorry for my lack of posting! September just came and went way to fast! I have been really busy with photography, and I'm slowly getting caught up with everything else...
Remy had a great birthday, we celebrated with our friends and family at the skate park downtown... Remy and his friends tore it up! I am happy to say there were no MAJOR casualties.... minor, but not major.

{Remy}




Well it's finally September... the beginning of my favorite time of year. I love September, October and November {autumn} I love the cooler weather, the windows open and the air off! the leaves changing, the holidays, the scented candles... all of it! and it just so happens, each of my children were born during those three months, September is Remy's birthday month... so i was thinking now would be a good time to let you get to know my "middle child" a little bit better. I think there really is something to that "middle child syndrome" everyone talks about... not that Remy has it bad or anything but he does tend to crave attention more than the other two. (Bry is the oldest, so he pretty much paved the way for the other two, Gabby is not only the youngest but the only girl.. so where does that leave Remy, stuck somewhere in the middle i guess) He is strong and athletic as well as sensitive, sweet and kind. He's kind of a homebody, He plays hard with his friends {mostly soccer} so when he's home he just wants to chill. He loves hanging out with us at home whether its playing video games with Bry, watching movies with Dad, playing chess with Mom or making up goofy songs with Gabby for Bry to play on his guitar {he idolizes Bry} He Loves sports, animals, music, movies, books, video games, skateboarding, swimming, playing with friends and hanging out with the fam! He may feel like he's stuck in the middle sometimes, but in my opinion the middle of anything is usually where you find all the sweetness anyway.
