"Yes We Can"

First off I want to say that I am not really sure which political candidate I am for at this point but I thought this video was worth watching. We all want the same thing even if we don't choose the same candidate. Let me know what you think?

Sad day in our family, The passing of Moose

We lost our sweet Moose E. Poo Poo a week ago Saturday. Actually he died before that but that is the day that we found him. He died a tragic death. He fell in a hole that we think is there to place a street light in. I don't know if there was water in it and he drowned or he just couldn't get out and froze to death. I am more sad about how he died than him dying. Of course I hate that he is gone but it just sickens me to think that he suffered for however long he did before dying. Brianna was devastated! We got him just before she turned 2 and Moose was 2 at the time. So she always thought it funny that her and Moose were the same age. She cried alot but seems to be doing o.k. now. Here are some old pics that I dug out. I plan on making her a photo album as soon as I can locate more pics. There are lots missing, probably still packed up somewhere.

Here's Bri fresh out of the bathtub loving on Moose sometime within a few

weeks of us getting him.


We were trying to get changed but Moose wouldn't stay down from the

changing table.

I Love this pic! Moose in the babydoll crib and Bri's nekid butt in the
background. She was getting some panties out of her drawer. You can barely see him in this pic, but he is snuggled in her arms.

These are here at the new house.




The twins were well on their way to loving him just as much as Bri and I.

Sorry it's been so long...

*I finally figured out how to arrange my pics in the order that I want them!!! WooHoo!! Laura cut and paste didn't work, I have tried numerous times. I decided this morning to click and drag and low and behold it worked!!!!

So we had the sickies at Christmas and let me just say that Christmas was NOT fun this year!! Bri got a stomach virus about 3 days before we traveled to TN. She got over it quick aside from still not having much of an appetite. I sprayed so much lysol and I guess it worked because none of the rest of us got the stomach bug. But at the same time Bri was sick Nattie came down w/a horrible cold and I decided to take her to the doc before we traveled to be safe that it was nothing more serious. He said just a cold. But she kept getting worse and worse all the thru the holiday and then Maggie came down w/it on Christmas Eve.

Here's how the trip went. 4.5 hours in the car with two screaming babies!! They cried, especially Nattie, the whole entire time we were at my Mom's. They didn't sleep and they didn't eat. They would not let anybody else hold them or even speak to or look at them. We didn't get to eat a meal with the rest of the family. And did I mention we didn't get to sleep!!! Then they cried most of the 4.5 hour trip home!!! We were all so exhausted and at least everybody did start sleeping again when we got home. I called the doc last Friday and asked for an antibiotic and finally they are starting to feel better. They are cutting teeth like crazy too so that could have been part of it. O.K. that is 2 Christmases in a row with the twins that have not been very pleasant. Let's hope the 3rd year is a charm and we really do have a Merry Christmas.

I know you will see some pics here that aren't all tears but let me just say that probably 5 secs before and after these were taken, they WERE CRYING!!!

And oh yeah, how could I forget the good part!! CHET is the most wonderful hubby!! He went shopping the day before Christmas Eve and brought me home an early present..........

CANON REBEL XT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it and I was so surprised and happy!! Now I just have to learn how to use it!!! These pics were taken with it.

A RARE smile from Maggie! She did smile a little more than Nat and cried a little less until she got really sick.

The cousins! This isn't all of them but all I could get to sit still!
Maggie liked Santa, hey he gives toys!
This is pretty much how Nattie looked the whole time.
We all know Maggie does like to cheese it up for the camera.
Christmas Morning! At least one of my children was happy and enjoyed Christmas!

They did like the presents even the clothes.


Poor little sickie girls!
