{Easter BBQ}

Aunt Lhasa planned a super fun Easter bbq with all sorts of fun stuff for the kiddos, they had a ton of fun and LOVED the treasure hunt through the trees behind her house.

{Hershey Track Meet}

This year Remy won first place in the 400 meter. He was on the inside lane, but he quickly caught up with the other racers... one by one he passed them all up and once he was in the lead kept looking to the side to make sure no one was gaining on him, Alexis was catching up quick, so just near the end Remy kicked it up a notch and crossed the finish line first!! way to go Rem!

Gabby also particapated in 3 races, the 100 Meter , 200 Meter and The Relay Race.

This was her first year, she did great!!

{The Lightning Theif Plays...}

Gabbys Teacher Mrs Drummond wrote these 3 plays based on the Percy Jackson's Lightning Thief books the books are based on The Greek Gods and Greek Mythology with a twist of modern humor, the plays were awesome and very funny! we were all laughing out loud!! Mrs Drummond did a great job with all the kids.. as 4th graders they actually had stage presence, it was amazing! Gabby was appropriately cast as Aphrodite...

Persephone and Aphrodite back stage.

I know this blog seems to get neglected... sorry:( I just get so busy that I cant find the time to post... well it's not really just the posting, it's more I don't have the time to even look at my own personal pictures after I take them... let alone edit and post them!! They just end up sitting on the computer until i can find the time to mess with them:( I do post regularly to my photo blog if you are interested in seeing the work I am doing these days or any projects I might have going on... right now I am addicted to FACEBOOK I signed up a couple weeks ago just to try to keep in touch with friends who have moved away and maybe do some networking, but it is so awesome, I am finding people who I haven't seen or heard from in YEARS... {some like 20 years!!} and right now I am completely addicted!! I'm sure it will pass, but if you haven't been on and would like to reconnect with old friends... that's the place to do it:) here are some pictures of Remy I found while moving pictures around on my computer {trying to save space... a CONSTANT thing in my world} enjoy:)

{first place}

Just in case I forgot to mention it, Gabby placed FIRST for photography in the 2008 reflections contest at her school. This was the winning photo... Way to go Gab!!

We had a wonderful Christmas, I cant believe it came and went so fast!! My Dad was here from California, we had a really nice visit with him and while he was here of course he did all the cooking which was fine by me because he is a genius in the kitchen. Christmas Eve he and my Mom helped the kids build a gingerbread house, before the rest of my family came over for dinner and a gift exchange. We also played "scene it, the movie addition" Lance and I usually smoke everyone in that game but this time Heather, Jay and Bry's team won {the cheaters team... hehehe} next morning the kids were up bright and early checkin' out their loot! I love this picture of Gabby with her "tiger beat" magazine {she got it in her stocking and has already hung up her Jonas Brothers posters that came in it} Christmas Day we went over to Lance's parents house for a little while but didn't stay for dinner because my Dad was whippin' us up another fabulous meal. {we had Ham Christmas eve and Turkey Christmas day, we had plenty of meat from both leftover for sandwiches and my Dad used the turkey carcase to make Turkey Soup
and i will be using the ham bone to make Black Eyed Peas... I'm tellin ya, it's all about the leftovers!}
