winter-style shorts

When winter set it, we let Nolan know he couldn't wear shorts again until the spring. This caused several major meltdowns, practically every day when it was time to get dressed. That is, until one day, several weeks ago, when he invented his own shorts - created by rolling his pants up past his knees!

(I actually thought it was a pretty creative solution to appease Mom and Dad.) Now Nolan's modified pant-shorts are one of his wardrobe staples. Well, apparently Macy's taking her fashion cues from her older brother these days. This pic is what I noticed while they were chillin' on my bed.

blast from the past

Hello out there....so I'm back on the bandwagon, at least for today. Is anyone out there still reading? Well, there is certainly too much to catch up on since the last post in October, so I'm opting to not catch up at all. After all, what else should I do after such a big gap??? So, instead, here's a bit of a game from some friends' blog tags.

Here are the official rules:
1. Go to my documents/pictures.
2. Go to the 6th file folder.
3. Go to the 6th picture.
4. Blog about it.
5. Tag 6 people to do the same.



Here's the winner! I love this picture of Jer and Nolan, fishing with PawPaw and Uncle Dick in August of 2005. I love that Jer is so adventurous and loves to take the kids on outings. He loves to take them ice fishing, to Wendy's for frosties, and for walks in the wagon. They are lucky to get to spend two days a week with him, while I'm at work. What a great daddy!

Okay, here is the tag, that is if anyone still checks this blog!
