Catching up!

It's been a while since I posted...mainly because not much has been going on around here.  It's been rainy and dreary most of January so far with a few sunny days thrown in which I really appreciate!  We've been cleaning out  and purging stuff.  Boy, do we have stuff!

I found an old afghan my mother made many years ago.  She used to crochet a lot and made lots of afghans.  This one was probably made from scraps of other afghans.  I thought Emma Taylor might like to have it.  You never know with teenagers but she was happy to get it.  I think my mother would be pleased that she has it.

We celebrated Harrison's 13th birthday on Friday night with dinner at D'Casa, his choice.  We went back to Heather's house for cake.  Yummy strawberry cake!

I'm having a hard time believing he's 13!

Friday was also Parker and Julianne's birthday.  How funny that three in the same family share a  birthday!  Hope they enjoyed their birthday as well.

We had a full house yesterday when Karen, Courtney's family, Kaydee's family and Ben and Cam were here.  We all met for lunch first, including Heather and Emma Taylor, then Courtney, Matt, Duncan, Kaydee, Justin, Luke and Cameron all went to a big Quest dinosaur exhibit in town.  Karen and I stayed home with Darby and Allie Ruth.  We had a nice visit and enjoyed having the girls to ourselves for a little while.  They are both just precious!

Darby loves to dress up as a princess, which she clearly is!

Cam wanted to hold Allie Ruth.

It was a fun day for all of us!
