Speaking of Hair...

Do not be afraid blog followers ~ the picture in the Header is incentive to get an updated Family Foto...we can't help the windswept look that we've got going on in the pic...Kaua'i Winds were high that day! :D

Alright, alright...and Aaron had a hat on before pictures were taken, and Austin's hair was "brushed in a rush", Henry has unruly hair and gel doesn't work on his head o' hair in humid conditions, and Hannah doesn't LIKE for Momma to touch her hair, and I...well, I didn't wanna be vain and crop myself out of the family pic and post a solo up of just ME in the Header now did I? BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!

stay tuned...

Care About Your Looks Much?

As most of you may know, I have 1 Girl & 2 Boys. What surprises me the most is that it isn't my girl that cares much about the clothes she's wearing {well, maybe just a litle bit}, or the way her hair looks {serioulsy, you'd think her mom didn't brush her hair before she went to school and honestly her Mom DIDN'T...Hannah likes the "rolled outta bed" look just fine}, it's my middle child, the boy we affectionately call Bubba that "needsta get his hair did" just about every morning.

This is the child that cried when Aaron cut his hair {he was only 3 or 4 at the time} because it wasn't cut to his liking. He likes his hair to be juuuust so, and even if that "just so" style looks like he slept on the right side of his head, so be it! As long as my Bubba thinks the kid looking back at him from the Mirror looks Handsome, then Handsome he Shall Be ~ at least in this Mama's Book! Love you Bubba!

OooOOh Pick Me, Pick MEEE!

p.s. I'm not a "techie" by any means so it looks like y'all will have to copy and paste that link..until a kind soul emails me with the "trick o' the trade" on how to do a clickable link that redirects you to the page, etc., etc., yada, yada, yada! :D

update: I Won! I Won! I Won!! Ladies, I would be happy to share recipes..especially my Sisters in CAD that hopped on over to give some Bloggy Love to Corrine so, I shall copy my favorite recipes to the Blog when I get it! :D

Blah Blah Blah

I haven't posted since last Christmas!!! Pathetic I know, but blame it on Facebook! I find it easier to use my brain in little Sentence Spurts as opposed to a whole Blog Burst. Call me lazy, but I like to call it Efficient.

I do need to start Blogging again though because I know that there are family members who check my Blog rather than my Facebook and they'd love to see the Lil Monkeys before they turn into full grown self sufficient Gorillas or Apes..I'm crossing my fingers for Decent Human Beings! :D

Happy Christmas & A Merry New Year!!

I just want to be sure that I have all of my bases covered...so if you already got this via email, or Facebook or some other online site I might have posted it to, I Apologize...in the meantime, Happy Holidays to all of our Family & Friends!! Much Love and Happiness for 2010!!

Make a Smilebox greeting

Our Very First Christmas Tree Hunt...

This weekend, we braved the High Uinta's and went on our very first "Christmas Tree Hunt". We've never really had it in our budget to buy a real live Christmas Tree and because Papa A likes live ones better, we'd always wait til the last minute to put up our fake one (just in time for Santa to come). But not this year folks! This year, we went the Saturday after Thanksgiving and got a permit for $12.50 ( I waited in a very looong line too mind you, and on the way in there was a guy that yelled "Go get your trees somewhere else!!" I'm sure he was joking but you never know...). We stayed with our friends at their cabin and they took us around on their Rangers to go find our very own live Christmas Tree!! The kids had a blast!! But best of all, we have a tree that we all got to pick out...I might add that it came complete with a Bird's Nest that Hannah didn't want to leave behind...sorry lil homeless bird family (but seriously, it looked like the birds had abandoned it a while back to fly south for the winter ~ so it's all good right?).

P.S. The picture of us all together is of us standing in front of the tree before we cut it down.

In Other News....

It's been a LOOOOONG while, and I know that all of you are curious as to what's happened with us in the last few months....Okay, so not all of you, because I'm sure the "all of yous" I'm referring to are either Family or Friend (maybe even foe) and should know what's going on. BUT for those Inquiring Minds who don't know, we've moved!!! That's right, after all the Graduations back in May, Aaron got a job in Wyoming and that's where we are. It's been an adjustment but it's starting to feel like home. I hope to get more ( or should I say, Better) pics on the computer I now use so that I can keep in the spirit of my clever subtitle ~ "A Collection of Fotos and Fingerprint Moments" ~ For now, enjoy the one picture I've posted until I am able to find others that may be "Blogworthy"! Stay tuned......(it may be another few months, but seriously, stay tuned!)
