I have posted the pictures of the kids First Day of school.

As Always,McKelvey & Arden gathered with Liam in the front of our house. they were excited for school to begin. And this past Tuesday Liam had his first day of preschool.

I can’t remember being excited for the first day of school, and maybe my parents can chime in and remind me. But I am glad they are, and I am thankful they don’t fight to wake up and get them ready in the morning.

I also can’t remember having homework in the 4th grade, let alone the 3rd or 2nd. Any hoo, I hope you liked this glimpse into the kids lives.

I have finally gotten around to posting the pictures from Arden’s birthday. As you can see there was a lot of bacon going on.

We had pin the bacon on the plate of eggs, a bacon piniata, and a bacon looking( but not tasting) cake.

Also McKelvey has had her birthday, and one of her presents was:

Yes Princess Leia hair buns.
Don’t worry we all tried them on, go see the pix.

Well, I finally have pictures up from Halloween.

You can see all of them here.

I also have some pictures from my birthday, the girls dance performance at the Theater at Lime Kiln(at which Liam wore a tux), Carving pumpkins, and more.

Well a lot has happened the last couple of weeks. and now the pictures are up to prove it. They are here by the way. We have a trip to New york city, in which the girls saw their first Broadway show and afterwards walked out on Times Square. They got to visit some of Ann’s friends and we all went to the American Girls store as well.

This past weekend we wetn to a Fall Harvest festival. They did a big puppet show (no really they were big puppets). Most notably McKelvey finally wore pants.

I Have posted the last of the summer fun pictures. I guess I could be wrong since there is more to the summer but anyway. The pictures are here. These are images I got from some friends over the course summer, so they will cover 4th of july to the beginning of August. I thought there were some really cute ones here. Enjoy.

I have posted some new pictures from the past couple of weeks. In June we went on our annual trip to Natural bridge, during Rockbridge resident week(when we get a discounted price). We went up to Harrisonburg for their old timey ‘Courthouse days’. Fun old games and stuff. We went up to Ann’s parents for a couple of days, and then to ETC. Where I am spending all my time on running a theatre program for high school students. And there is a lot of drama, which should be expected for teenagers that do theatre and all live in the same house for 5 weeks.

There is some good pix of Fourth of July here.

Mummies.

McKelvey enjoyed her cake.

We have made our (soon to be) annual New Year’s card. and to go along with that here is our family’s 2007 in pictures.
