Long Overdue

Well, obviously this is long overdue, but who am I kidding.... I am an awful blogger, never up to date. I know the point is to do a little each week or so, and not 6 months at a time, but.... I've tried, OK!?!??! So here is the PAST 6 MONTHS!!!

Oh, and I messed up in the middle of loading, and got them all horribly out of order, so sorry about that too! :)

Here is Ev, opening monster Monster truck for Christmas.

Here is Annica opening the tea set that I knit for her.

Ellery....

Annica at church Christmas program.

Tried to get a nice family photo, but Ellery kept running away!!

Here's where things get goofy order wise.... This is Evan giving his speech at the KINDERGARTEN PROGRAM last May!!

Trouble in the dishwasher.

And we're back to Christmas.... Evan at sunday school program.

Lovely fall day.... view across the street from us.

I got the cutest wooden piano on Craigslist. This is Charlie Brown playing it.

First haircut with "Mrs. Kelly".

Self Explainitory

Since Annica took the baby piano, I'll take this one!!

Another lovely fall day.... Evan and the Bosveld boys. I love watching those stinkers play.

Evan's 7th Birthday Cake

We had the boys of his class over for pizza and pinata. Very fun!

The next week, Annica turned 5!

I am smiling.

Grandma Miersma here for Phil Miersma's wedding. We had a great visit with her, and were surprised with a visit from Chris too! Here we are at a gathering at Heritage school.

My house on Sunday night.....

Mom and aunt Sharon.
Uncle Gene and Aunt Daris talking with Brad and Lynn and co.

Uncle Chris

Dana took Annica and neighbor Emma to pick out pumpkins to carve.

Needless to say, they weren't too interested in the actual carving, so we did it. Two owls and a leaf. And thankful for online printable templates. We stunk. I guess b/c we were so jackolantern deprived our whole lives! :)

Dad and mom went winetasting with Uncle Gerald and Aunt Celia. Here they are getting a little silly!

Here we are at Russ' for mom's birthday.

Ooops, mom must have had the camera... no pics of mom!!

Here is a naughtly little stinker on the roof of Grandpa and Grandma's shed.
This is a china hutch and dining room set that I refinished and sewed slipcovers for. Kind of proud of the slipcovers... had never done anything like it before, and I LOVE.

They are made of dropcloths that I bleached, and then painted with fabric paint. They are actually very soft now, but super sturdy. I may just try something for my own house like this.

Sheet music wreath that I made. Fun, Fun.

Cupcake hat and mitts that I made a friends's baby. Okay, I'll stop with the junk I've made section. But I think Bethany might care. Maybe.

Kiddos making cookies at Grandma K.'s house. Annica in jammies. Did they sleep over? Why no, I brought her there that way at like 3 in the afternoon. No joke. Bad mom.

Dana'a gift bearing Bear.
Kuiper Christmas Pics.

Okay, done already!!! Seriously took me like an hour. Love you all! :)
