This is Isaiah waiting for his party to start...he has been so impatient for this b day!

This is my wacked up cake! but he told me that it was the coolest cake EVER! so I felt alot better about it after that!

And the Garden GrOwS!

Thorney and Arianna bating...as usual. This is an every bath occurance at our house!

My house must be a MAGNET for all things! I not only have 7 kids in my house at all times....but now the neighborhood dogs come over and play!! Don't get me wrong I LOVE it!

And these are My funny kids, and yes we have onlu been in North carolina 1 year! (you will get what I mean when you hear Nate!)

New DO :-)

I got my hair colored for the first time in years....I really like it! I did the cut myself though, I couldn't afford all of it! I guess the cut came out okay...it is easy as heck to do in the morning :-)

I hate my profile....so you guys are lucky to be seing a pic like this!!

It has been forever since I posted last, sorry. It is becoming a trend with me!
I am going to give a little run down on the pics, I am tired and am going to bed, but this has been nagging at me.....so here we are! first....the end of May we went to my sisters house for my nephews graduation party. Angie (my sister) put out a great spread of food for us. The pic of the 2 youngins is my nephew Daniel and his girlfriend Val.
....Then there are some pics of my ittybitty garden. These pics are a few weeks old, and all of you know what a few weeks can do for a garden, so I will post some new ones of how it looks now! I have green beans, spinich, leaf lettuce, carrotts, corn, and some squash!yum yum! I had some herbs growing, but they died:(...Now we have Matt's Baptism. this is his very first time (yes I know that sounds wierd...but some people do it more than once) I was so excited when he wanted to do it!
And finally we have a GREAT game of twister :-) Those kids can really get you twisted up!

Well I HAVE to go to bed. I will get more recent ones up soon.....I hope!

Too many pics!! Sorry!

Okay, so I have not posted in a while. We have taken a trip to New York to see Matt's parents, done some gardening, and the kids from the neigborhood that come over every day (I love it, it reminds me of when we were in Japan, and my parents let my friends come over all the time!), and of course the toaster oven fire that we had! My mom is great to me, and emediately bought me a new one...she must know how much I loved

it or something!. That is a short discription of the pictures you are about to see :-)

IceCream with grnadma...VERY cold!

Cousins. Arianna had so much fun with one that was about her age.

She is so CUTE!

I got a new Point and shoot camera the other day! I was so excited because it fit in my purse. I was at a nursery with one of my friends, and was able to take these pics....if I didn't have it I would have not had the chance to get these cute cute pics! This is one of Arianna's best friends. she lives at the end of out road, and plays so well with Arianna! she is looking forward to being able to babysit her in the futer when she becomes of age :-) (she actually bought a babysitting guide yesterday to study ! ) she is a great kid, and her brother is Nate's best friend. He also is a GREAT kid, and friend.
I will still be using my canon quite a bit around here, but for when I am out this is a great little camera.....oh and it has VIDEO!!! I love that.

Here is a vieo of Isaiah singing!
