My mom took the boys and my niece to "The Land of Little Horses" in Gettysburg for a fun day trip.

Layout: "Christmas 2011"

Finally finishing up my Christmas layouts with the family one. This Christmas was extra special as we splurged and bought the older kids some big surprises - xBoxes with Kinect for Christian and Gabriel and iPod Touches for Abigail and Caleb. I wanted to do something surprising for them since it won't be long before they are all grown up.

Layout: "Evolution"

I rarely have photos of me, so I thought it would be fun to do a little gallery of my hairstyles from the past 16 months. After nearly 40 years (gulp - am I really that old?), I still haven't figured out quite what to do with it.

Layout: "Typical Day"

This is a layout of a "typical day" (is there really such a thing?) from September 2011.

Digital Kit: Unknown.

Layout: "Track Star"

I was so proud of Caleb when he joined the track team this year. He may not have actually been a "star" by winning the meets, but he was a star in my eyes for persevering, never giving up and never complaining.

Layout: "Create"

Abigail and Gabriel helped Duane build a deck for the pool. Now we're just waiting for the weather to say warm enough to swim.

Layout: "Pride"

Thurman surprised us when he wanted his training wheels removed, then he surprised us even more when he learned to ride all by himself after just a few hours!

Layout: "Official Teenager"

I now have four official teenagers living in my house. Pray for me!

Layout: "Fractured"

No, it's not deja vu. Christian wrecked yet again on his bike. That's bike as in bicycle. Thank God it was nothing motorized.

Layout: "Gobble Gobble"

I don't normally do Thanksgiving layouts (because I'm usually too busy to remember to take photos). I did remember to take some pics this time. I needed an excuse to get this adorable kit!

Layout: "Gingerbread Haunted House"

I loved watching Gabriel and Abigail work together to make this Halloween-themed gingerbread house. They no sooner got it together and let me take a few photos before they dismantled it and began snacking! The layout was fun - I used a gingerbread-themed kit and added some "devilish" accents to the cute little gingerbread men!

Layout: "Rub a Dub Dub"

I don't know exactly how or why this started, but the boys love having Grandma wash them up - in the sink!

Logan is one unique, funny little guy! I'm so glad he's mine!
