It's Novemeber? Really?!

So, um, I have been a bit of a slacker with this blog. I was doing so well, and then, working two jobs starting taking over ALL of my free time! But, for the moment at least, I am taking time to myself to blog the latest news. . .at least the latest since August 29th (the date of the last blog entry!). Geez, time sure does fly!

First off, I found these random pics of Mackenzie that I didn't even know I had. I absolutely LOVE them! Her face is so expressive. . .






Rocky & Leticia (Matt's brother & his wife) came for a visit in September, and brought Leticia's granddaughter, Jasline. She was such a cutie! And we all had the best time talking and catching up with each other's lives.

Little Ms. Jasline would bring me leaves as a present. She was rewarded by being tickled until she could barely breathe. Then, the whole process would start all over again. She would run find some leaves, point them out to me, and then proceed to be tickled all over! She was so cute!

ZACH was home! Yippee!!! He was home for a few weeks on his pre-deployment leave before going to Iraq. We spent many days/evenings with him, and loved every precious moment of it!

The family gathered around to play cards and chat.
