Caden and Gabe's day at the park

Here are some pictures from Gabe's trip to the park with his friend Caden. We had such a good time. Ellie was at school while Gabe and Caden got to play. Alicia is a really good friend of mine that lives in my neighberhood and this is her son. We had to take advantage of the beautiful weather this week. I got some really good shots of Caden and Alicia! I had so much fun taking pictures of them. Hope you enjoy them.
Love ya...Lizzy

Visit to Grammie's work..

Here are some pictures from Grammie's work. She works at a Church/preschool in St. Charles. I brought Ellie and Gabe by to see Grammie and pick her up from work. The kids got to play on the playground and they also got to see all the pumpkins that were brought there to sell. I got some really neat pictures. Enjoy...


































































Rachel's Birthday

Well..Rachel turned the Big 18!!!! Rachel came back home from school for her fall break and we all decided last minute to go to Hard Rock downtown to eat dinner to celebrate Rach's birthday. We had a blast. Gabe and Grampie had fun playing with the icing from the cake that we made her. After dinner, Rachel decided to sleep over. We wanted to go out downtown but it didn't work out so we brought the kids home to Daniel and then Rachel and I went out in Slidell. We had a blast and we got all our drinks free! No one could believe that Rachel was 18. We met some really nice people and we had a blast so that is all that matters. We got home around 2:00am. We had to bring Ellie to school the next morning so we were exhausted. Rachel and I did some shopping in the mall the next day and then I had to bring her home. :( Here are some pics from her birthday at Hard Rock downtown. Enjoy....:)

Bonnie's Wedding (Oct 6, 2007)





























Well Bonnie got married this past weekend. Everything was beautiful. Ellie and Victoria stood in her wedding and I was the Matron of Honor. The girls did wonderful. They held hands and walked down the isle smiling from ear to ear. Danny took some of the pictures for me to help me out. I didn't get to take as many pictures as I would have liked but I have some. I know Bonnie had an awesome photographer so I will get some of those pictures later. Bonnie is on her honey moon in Jamaica right now and when she gets back she will be moving to Katy, Texas. It will be so weird knowing that she will not be coming by on her lunch breaks or after work or on drill weekends. Bonnie will be not only a sister, friend, daughter, aunt but now she will also get the title "Wife". That title is very special. I am so glad she found her soulmate and I wish her nothing but happiness. Well, enjoy the pictures and I will add more when I get some from other friends.
Love ya'll,
Lizzy

Something I don't want to forget

Ellie asked me the other day.."when we go to Heaven, are we going to drive?" I told her no. Then she asked, "Are we going to ride in an elevator?" It was so hard for me not to laugh. I told her that God will give us wings and we will fly there. It is so amazing the thoughts that run through her head. I am so glad she is thinking about those things. She is singing Jesus loves me and that song just makes me smile. My little girl knows Jesus! :) It is awesome!

Mimi is with us this week. She is doing okay but she still has her moments where she talks and talks about my mom. She is really sad about my mom being gone. Her memory is pretty bad. She doesn't even know that I am her granddaughter. She asked me today, "how did I get here?" I told her that "Doug" was my dad and she said her famous phrase.."OH REALLY". I hate this disease..
Well, I will try to get some pictures of her and the kids this week. I am planning to do a Fall Family Portrait across the street by the Gazebo for all the family members in my neighborhood on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I am doing it in the evening when the lighting is good. I am excited about it. Mimi will help with the kids. :) She is good at that!
Love you all,
Lizzy

Matt and Mandie's Wedding




Matt got married September 22, 2007! Everything turned out so nice. We had a little scare because Ellie got sick the night before the wedding (Friday night). She started running a fever and then she kept saying her tummy hurt. I was so worried I was going to have to call and tell the Bride (Mandie) that Ellie was going to miss the wedding. We woke up early and met the bridal party at a salon to get her hair done. She wasn't too happy about it all. She was tired and she still didn't feel good. Right before the wedding (2:00 pm) her fever started to come back. She was exhausted. She ended up walking down the isle picking her nose. It was hilarious. I had to take the flowers out of her basket and throw them down the isle. Rachel came to the rescue and walked her down the isle. Thank God! The wedding was beautiful. The reception was very nice also. Danny bought some Motrin to give Ellie and then she started acting like her old self. She ran everywhere and danced and had a blast.
We were so happy to see Grandpa Bill there too! I got to dance with him :)!
Well, here are the pictures (some of them). Enjoy!
