Erin's Tag
Open your photo program and choose the 6th file and then the 6th picture and see what you get.
It's Natalie (I'm pretty sure anyway). This pic was taken at the Maxwell House (haha, lol every time I say that!) while we were there to beat the heat, soaking up their AC. We were in the middle of moving and as my luck would have it, our AC crapped the bed during a major heat wave. I was losing it, stressed out to the max and Jeannie was gracious enough to let us hang out for the evening and cool off. It was that night that I was introduced to chocolate almond frozen yogurt, which doesn't sound too harmful but I've been an addict ever since. Too much of a good thing is never a good thing...@ 10lbs later! Yeah, thanks Jeannie! ;)

Stampede!
My little Kindergartener was trampled on her way out to recess...
My poor baby, so pitiful! :(
Reilly was very brave and got fixed up at the nurse's office and went right back out to recess.
It broke my heart getting the phone call from the nurse, but she assured me that Reilly was okay. I say these things happen, unfortunately.
Daddy is NOT too happy though! (he wants to find out who the little boy's dad is!) ?!?!?! ;(
My poor baby, so pitiful! :(Monday, October 13, 2008
Farm Fun
We stopped by Marini Farm yesterday w/ my sister Katie and her rugrats. My kids look forward to this place all year. We made our way through the corn maze and got some great fall pics...it's always a great time.
*******************************************
We paid a visit to friends of ours on Friday afternoon who now live on a farm. This is the real deal kind of farm, no bells & whistles, no hired help. They're just normal working people who happen to love animals. They've become sort of an animal sancuary, they have a hard time saying no to any new addition. The most interesting part is that they're learning as they go along. This is all new to them. It looked like tough work alright, but it must be amazing to live alongside all of these animals. We had so much fun! Thanks Bob, Dianne, Dana & Dom. xoxo
This pic is for my sister Mary..."aren't I cute, splurrrrrt!".

Just a Friday afternoon...
Reilly went on her first school field trip today. She went to Applecrest Farm to enjoy all the fun that they offer (great place!). She picked some apples and chose a cute little pumpkin. Carrying that little pumpkin around was very tiring for lil miss Reilly though and she's quite exhausted. She wanted to decorate it as soon as she got through the door though. She had a fun-filled day! Field trips ROCK!
Caragh loves to paint w/ these paint pens (best invention EVER!). Mess FREE!
Emmet~look at that face! He'll be 7 yrs old this winter!

Sisters
There's something about the time right after baths when the kids are clean, settled and quiet. Reilly, Caragh, a warm blanket, a Care Bears episode and ahhhh...all is well.
I thought this sight was pretty cute: Caragh fast asleep and the both of them wearing my t-shirts to bed. I just love little girls.
Check out the beautiful blanket that Erin made me for my birthday. We LOVE it! Thanks to you, my sis! xoxo
I just love this little chubby face! ♥

Now add up the total number of points.
Over 60 points: Others see you as someone they should "handle with care" You're seen as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely dominant. Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.
51 to 60 points: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate.
41 to 50 points: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.
31 to 40 points: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful and practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest...Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust is ever broken.
21 to 30 points: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.
Under 21 points: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions and who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or anything. They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don't exist. Some people think you're boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren't.
No apologies...these things are fun!
