It's a baseball birthday

Ok for somebody that doesnt make cakes for a living I'm pretty proud of this one! I did use a picture as a guide, it was not all freehand. But I'll have to start a little side bussiness











Alex may not have truly appreciated the design, but he loved the taste! There is just something about birthday cake...

Here's the birthday boy with some of his friends from school! It was quite and experience having that many boys in the house at one time!!! AHHHHHH!!! I dont know how my Grandma Tierney raised 5 boys?!?!?

Ethan enjoys his FIRST piece of birthday cake.... I think he likes it!

My first project

Well I've completed my first project for my digital photography class and I'm so proud. The assignment was to capture color and detail. How do you think I did?

I just want to take a bite
This one makes me long for spring
A spring preview
Would you like mushrooms on that?
Wouldnt you like a dozen of these for Valentines Day?

Stay tuned for my next project... Lanscapes and close-ups....

Did Santa find us???

Alex & Leah talk about which treat they think Santa will eat first

Look at all those presents....

Alex opens a Snoppy Snow Cone Machine, something Mommy always wanted, I wonder if Santa meant to bring that to me and Alex opened that by mistake?!?!?











Leah puts some "make-up" on Daddy.... in this picture she kept saying "you got lips Daddy?"

That's right, were going to Vegas Baby.... Keep Fall 2009 open...

Our Trip to The Fire House

Leah has been to the fire house a dozen times to see her Daddy, but today she got to bring along some of her friends. She was SOOOO excited to show off the Wooo Wooo place and all the neat things about being the daughter of a firefighter.

Here the big shinny fire engine

Not this time pal, we are going in....

Are they too cute or what???

Joslynn is NOT to sure about this, but curious just the same.

And this future fire fighter had a huge grin on his face the WHOLE time we were there!

Ethan's First Snow

Well I'm not sure what this is, but it looks kinda fun....
Hold still for just one...
But I dont like it.....
See my new toofers coming in?

Ethan being the agree-able kid that he is, took well to his first encounter with the snow. He was all smiles and didnt mind the cold wet stuff, his big sister on the other hand... help me help me theres snow on me.... she's such a GIRL!!!
Alex took off running and I couldnt even hardly get him to stand still for a picture, but I got his Best Bud Rick involved and then ofcourse.... I got a quick one...

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...

After alot of searching we finally found the perfect tree. We brought it home and after 4 or 5 cuts and alot of cussing we finally got it in the stand and ready to decorate. Here Ethan is getting in the Christmas spirit. He cant wait for his first Christmas! Posing in front of the naked tree
Why do kids love to do this? I cant keep these out of her mouth
Daddy and Ethan wore themselves out and needed a little nap
The end result.... not too shabby!
Stay tuned to see pictures of our trip to visit Santa....

When Irish eyes are smiling

I tell you what, Ethan is the smiliest little fella I know. He is just so happy all the time and cathcing him in a smile is so easy! I mean just look at these!
