Habitat for Humanity

Episcopal Churches in the County, including St Peter the Fisherman in New Smyrna Beach have helped build houses.

I actually helped paint the outside of this house. I am ready to paint my own house now.......a MANGO color.

My Dream Doggie

Emma just got the most adorable Yorkie. She wanted to post pics of her new doggie on my blog. The doggie's name is Roxie

Face Painting

Grandma Anne and the Boys came over for Pizza Saturday night. She is quite an artist, the children loved her art work. Noah kept very still for his Grandma Anne. Sophia had a small Dolphin, that was as long as she could hold still. Paige selected a Fairy similar to Emma's

Emma's Birthday Party 1/6/2007

Oh Boy! I am having fun! having Fun! At my Birthday Party. First we played with the Parachute and everyone had fun. I have hot dogs and crustable sandwiches at my party. My decorations were hung at the park. They were either horse or blue/green. I had cupcakes with green icing and a trail made of orioles that were crumbled up. They had a horse on each cupcake. I am having fun opening my presents at my Birthday Party. This is a Dora Memory game. Thank-you everybody for coming to my 6th Birthday Party. (Now my Grandmother is making me go to bed for the last time) love, Emma

Quick Dip

You must think the only thing we do is lie around and play in the pool. Loki and Boda keep careful waych over the girls. Emma and Paige doing their "Laptops", at least that is what Paige calls it , although Emma reminds her it is really "Laps" See Boda is never very far away.

Emma's Real Birthday 1/2

I bought the girls a regulation size school table and chairs for their B'day. I hope this will encourage them to stay in the playroom and not to fight for a space, since it is suppose to seat 6. We had Brownies and ice cream on Tuesday night for Emma, but her B'day Party with her friends is on Saturday. The kids played on the Moon Bounce that Nanny bought them. Dick spots Will and Emma as they slide down .

Happy New Year 2007

Mike instructs Sailor about shucking oysters and throwing the shells in the Hole. We went to Judy and Roger's for NY eve What a Party Boy! Almost Midnight!!!!

Who Is That Stranger in My Hot Tub?

Paige Birthday Party

Paige chose to have a McDonald's Birthday. She even had it on her Birthday 12/30

Brunch at Grandma Bobbie's

I hope we have started a new Florida Tradition, by having Brunch at my house on Christmas morn.

Time to Play

Finally when everything is opened, they can take a few minutes to actually play with their gifts.

This is Thrilling!!!

I just snapped away, the girls loved everything they opened. I hope they stay like this forever.

Christmas Morn 2006

Sophia was the first one up, but then she usally is the first one up regardless. Paige had her hair in curlers, which her Dad helped her remove, before they moved into the big room to see what Santa brought.

Christmas Eve with the Schraders

We had a delicious dinner at the Schraders. Afterwards we opened presents. the Girls received a Vanity and make-up which Paige immediately wanted Jen to apply!

Pre-Christmas Swim

Just 3 days before Christmas and it really is warm. the Girls and Boda decided to go for a little dip. I stayed in the Hot Tub were it was a little warmer.
