children & families

beach photoshoots like crazy!

Had one this past Sunday and have THREE more coming up this weekend alone. The one Sunday was a lot of fun – it was my good friend Marianne and her sweet and good-looking family. Marianne and I became good friends in my scrapbook class and have been scrapping and laughing ever since. A lot of laughing with her. She’s definitely one of the good ones. (shoes and cleavers and all, right Mare?)

The big kids were very cooperative, the little one (who is a friend of Timmy’s and the same age- so I was so not surprised) was not really in the mood, but I ended up with a few keepers of her anyway. Guess I caught her in a good moment every now and then! I don’t think her husband was very happy about being there and missing his Sunday football games though. One of my favorites from the day. The rest are in an album on the left side if you are interested.Marianne_146x

Timmy had school today where he stayed for 2hrs this week and we left the building. Came home and scrapped with Sharon. It was waaaay too quiet in the house! I missed him a lot but neither of us cried. And he told me he had a great time.

Big boys resumed drum lessons today and it seemed to go well. Working on Jack being a bit more responsible when it comes to keeping organized and bringing home/back the proper study materials. He is so John like that, while Patrick is so obsessive/compulsive like me.

Off to the city again tonight (well, aren’t I just the city girl? No, not really- just having a good run of shows) to see Rent with Nelson.
