Ball on the Bell

Saturday was ball on the bell. We went out to dinner with some friends before hand then it was onto the bell. We left the dock at 8:00 and got back at 11:00.
The girls hung out . . .

Megan and I (nat) had to get a shoe shot . . . while Brian looked like a stud.

Here are the girls looking quite smashing in their "little black dresses"

The ball on the bell was filled with dancing and tons of fun! I think it's safe to say that we had a great time!

Sharee's visit

Sharee came to visit! Arthur watched the four kids back in New Mexico all by himself! Yes, I would agree that he is an amazing brother-in-law!

While Sharee was here we went to the zoo. Kyrie really loved having Sharee out here. Like melanie, Kyrie took Sharee very quickly and dragged her around the house with her. Kyrie is pretty strong and I wouldn't be suprised if Sharee has to have therapy on her shoulder for the next little while. Of course we had to scrapbook while Sharee was here. She brought tons of her close to my heart supplies and stamps. We spent the whole time working on a calendar that turned out so cute! Like I said, Kyrie loved Sharee. She even sat still for Sharee to paint her fingers and toes. This is an amazing accomplishment for Kyrie who can't sit still long enough to get a diaper change, let alone long enough for anyone to paint one toe nail.



Brian made crab, and it was the first time Sharee had ever had crab. It was great! Thank you Brian.

We went antique shopping! Sharee and I could probably spend days antique shopping and not get tired. We found a few cute things. Actually we found tons of cute things, but because we are so savvy and frugal with our money we only purchased these few things. It was so much fun having Sharee out here for a visit. We miss her tons. Kyrie still walks into the room Sharee slept in and calls Sharee's name sitting on the bed with books surrounding her. Sharee read a lot of books to Kyrie while she was here.
