Engagement!!!

Wow, this is loooong overdue!  Where do I start? 
Okay...long ago, on Feb 23, 2005, my boyfriend(Chris Vandergrift) had a fabulous idea...Chinese take out(his favorite!) & inviting some friends over to our townhouse.  Everything was going according to plan & then I received a call from Chris' sister.  She wanted to come over too!  Her explaination was as follows: to use up the film in her camera on our dog, so she could get her pics developed...likely story, lol...& I bought it!  The more the merrier, right? 
After dinner, Chris...who might I add, is NOT a "sweets eater" pulled out half of a carrot cake from the frig for dessert.  Strange!?  His sister, Mary insisted that, "if I have to eat a piece, you have to eat one with me!"  For any of you who know me, I usually don't turn don't food, so I accepted.  Chris served everyone...me 1st..with a silly grin on his face....along with a bunch of stares, picture taking & silly grins....Strange #2!?
Then, low & behold...I looked down at my piece of cake & WUAAA LAAA...bling, bling!  Yep, there...stuck in my cake, was a diamond ring!!! 
And so it begins....the story of my life!
                    I had no idea my sneaky, soon to be sister in law was taking pics...isn't he cute!
                         Grins & silly faces as my cake sits in front of me & I had NO CLUE, lol!
                                              Bling~Bling...notice I'm already outta my seat!
                                                         big hugs & kisses to my love!!
   Had to get a pic with my sneaky...soon to be sister in law, that I love & glad she captured these moments!

1st Day of Fall 2012

What can I say, other than the 1st day of fall is absolutely beautiful! (even though my girls want to watch Christmas movies today).  Hailey isn't feeling very well, but managed to play outside and enjoy the weather for a little while...and of course get a few pics of the kiddos with our glamorous glittering pumpkins...so girly! Some other accomplishments this week...Hailey read the bedtime story 2 nights ago...might have been a "Dick & Jane" book, but mommy was so proud! Lindsey has taken on "spitting" which we are trying to break!  She also gets a big kick out of putting her mouth on mine or Chris' belly and blowing, followed by, "I pooted!!"  Yep, I think she might be our tomboy...  Hailey had the best attempt at getting Lindsey to try to stop spitting by saying, "Lindsey! Stop spitting or you're going to turn into a BOY!!"  Lindsey responded, "Oh noooo!" with her hands on her cheeks and hasn't att...
