Gracie Sings

Gavin Becomes "Spider-Gav"

Dancing Queen

First take a look at this video from a famous Texas movie...then take a look at our Texas Christmas video...the only change: Chainsaw to Guitar. For a full comparison pay particular attention to the scenes when the chainsaw is "over head".

Happy Thanksgiving!

We spent Thanksgiving with, the Merwick's and Foltz's. We had a great time - plus it was nice to not have to cook for once! The kids had a great time running around and playing too. The weather is really cold and will be cold for a few more days...it finally feels like fall!

Gracie's Big Day...

Gracie asked to get her ears pierced...here she is sitting on the stool waiting. Her ears have been cleaned and marked with a pen. Her nerves are just starting to run high!

First one done...ouch, that hurt! She was so brave and trying so hard not to cry...but those big tears managed to make their way down her cheeks.




Both ears are done...she wasn't too happy at this moment.

Much better...outside the store - it's all over!!




















Wa-lah! The beautiful earring! All is well, and she is super proud of her pierced ears!!!

Happy Halloween!

Spiderman, Pink Bunny and the Black Cat!

Boot To The Head

Gabby was just having fun, when all of a sudden, a tennis ball struck her in the head. Poor Gabby.

Front Yard Combat

The Scene: advanced medic Gracie Maxwell treats team leader Gavin for a near fatal liver injury. As he recovers, rear security team member, Mat (aka the next door neighbor) is hit by a sniper. As advanced medic Gracie treats Mat, Gavin is sniped too... will they survive?

Next week on Front Yard Combat: Gavin steps on a green dog poop mine.

Rolling Gabby

Gabby is still not interested in crawling...her mode of transportation (besides momma) is to roll...here she is doing a couple of rolls!

Gabby Gets Payback

Gavin really loves Gabby, but he's always in her business. Last week, she got a little payback...

Gavin Learns To Ride His Bike

So one morning Gavin decided he wanted me to take his training wheels off. After bugging me for a few hours, I finally complied, knowing within two minutes I'd be putting them back on. But, as you can see... I should have just put them in the trash. He never looked back.

Gracie's "Really Dancy Song"

The other day Gracie picked up my guitar and started singing. I asked her to play me a song so I could record it... this is what followed. She even named it: "The Really Dancy Song"

Feb 2007

So she had her first bath, and as you can see... SHE LOVED IT. Then Mom runs to take a picture, and Gabby has that look: "not another flash". Some photos really make her hair look red... Gracie's was the same. Her eyes are also getting much lighter, more blue everyday...I know, I know. If another person tells me it takes a "long time" for eye color to change, I'm going to puke. I started hearing that BS in 2002, 5 years later...it's still the same. Either people need to just keep quiet, or we need to stop having kids... either way, I'm tired of hearing about it.... SheeeeSSSH already. ;-)
