Deb and Little Dame come to Louisville...

Our friends Deb Dame and her daughter McCall Dame came to Louisville to visit for the first time. We had a fun few days going to the Gap Clearance Center, Cheesecake Factory, St. Matthews Mall, and Six Flags.

Cohen and McCall got along--most of the time. After a couple of days with the Hawkes family, McCall quickly learned how to say, "No pushing Cohen!!" Sometime she would just see him and shout, "No pushing!"

We ate so much good food. Deb is a fantastic cook, and made us lots of yummy caramel! Here are the kids eating a Ritz-Butterfinger Carmel Sandwich (it sounds weird--but was SO tasty). She also cooked Beef Stroganoff for Sunday dinner. I didn't have to do a thing! I sat and sipped a Diet Dr. Pepper while she cooked. It was great.

Here are photos of the kids getting their faces painted at the Haunt Fest in Six Flags. We met the Mortensen's there at the Park and trick or treated with Livvy!

You just can't bet Fall weather, Halloween, good friends, good food and good fun! See you in Dallas Dames!!

Cohen's 2 Year photo shoot...

A couple days before Cohen's birthday, I decided to take him into "Walmart's Picture People" to get professional photos taken. He usually takes great photos--with no problems. This time was different.

He would not hold still, he did not want to smile, and all he wanted was to run around the studio. He started being very difficult and crying. The photo attendant kept asking me if I wanted to reschedule. This only made me even more flustered. No, I don't want to reschedule!! We are here now, lets just take the dang picture. For all the trouble we had, I think the photo turned out OK.

A Day Late and a Dollar Short...

This cute little phrase seems to best describe my existence these days. I really don't have too much going on, but seem to always be a step behind!

Most especially I have lost my "blog-a-rhythm." When I first started blogging, I was good about updating posts and posting on others blogs. I even accused my sister of being a lazy blogger for not updating her blog for 3 weeks!! My, how the tables have turned! All I can do is repent and move one. I have a couple of new posts ready. So, stay tuned...
