I've been tagged, too!

I've been tagged by Leah to do the following:

1. Choose the 4th picture folder on my computer

2. Choose the 4th picture

3. Explain the picture

4. Tag 4 people to do the same.


My pictures are organized so that I have one folder called "Cat's pics" that contains zero folders. So instead of taking these instructions literally (which would result in some youth group picture totally unrelated to me), I've chosen the fourth picture in my folder.

This was taken in December I think. Nick said, "Hey, take a picture of Jack on my shoulders!" What stands out to me the most is Jack's booties. They are leather, fur-lined boots that were passed down from Owen. Jack-Jack was such a baby then! He still had his pacie! Owen got rid of that for him though; when Sophie was born, Owen gave his own pacie to her and then took Jack's out of his mouth and put it in Sophie's bed in the hospital. I think each boy requested the pacie twice after that but were fine when we reminded them that they had given them to Sophie.

Sweet babies. Here is a picture of what Owen looked like last December.

I tag:

1. Vanessa

2. My dad

I'd tag two more, but I think the other two people who actually read this have already been tagged! More rule-breaking for me!

One Week Too Late..

Happy Halloween!


The boys had a great Halloween. Owen was Superman - after a traumatic few minutes as a Swamp Monster - and Jack was a spider. The day after Halloween, we went to the youth group's party at the Keiths' house. It was perfect! We had hotdogs and cookies, then we went on a hayride, and when we got back to the bonfire we had hot cocoa!


But that wasn't our first Halloween party of the season! We went to Nick's parents' house on Tuesday for the college group's party. Some of the costumes were a little scary, so Owen confined himself to the house for most of the party. The best part of that party? S'mores!!!!

One last thing before I go - you need to meet Lucy! Here she is with her proud owner Nick and his BFF Caleb standing with arms akimbo (which I take to be a position of approval).
