Welcome to MY FAMILY - Blog

This will be a work in progress - hope everyone can check in often. Nothing terribly exciting happens around here - just work, family and what little sleep we get. Nice to know that we can keep in touch in another way - gotta love modern technology!

Stuff

Tonight was Fathers' Night at Addisons' preschool and the theme was "Cowpokes!" Boy was Tim excited for that - he wore his Dallas Cowboy t-shirt as that is as close as he gets to cowboy attire! I made alittle bandana dress for Addi - not expecting it to be that big on her - always forget how tiny she is. Took Bry for a walk after they left...using my new, new lens....since the last lens I ordered was the wrong one and I had to send it back. So now I have the right new lens! Bry was less then cooperative but such is life :)

Alittle walk in Flagstaff...

Our last morning in Flagstaff. We had a nice breakfast, let the kids play on the playground and then went for alittle walk - thanks to Addi - she was not embracing the idea of a walk because she had a blister on her foot from the wedding shoes I bought her - bad mama!

Wedding Weekend

So another Burke got married...Congratulations to our Niece Tina and her new husband Jason - Welcome to the Burke Family. We had a great time in Flagstaff this weekend for their lovely wedding - Addi was over the top excited as she was asked to be the flower girl! Have never seen her so excited. She looked like a little princess and did such a good job following directions. She walked the long isle all by herself - barefooted because the shoes I bought her gave her a blister on her foot - she really did look adorable though. I took a ton of pictures - too many to edit in one night.....so this will be a multiple posting. Tonight I have some from the friday night rehearsal, Addi getting her hair done and a few from before the ceremony with family and her cousins.


Addi, Bryton and Cousin Landon (also the ring bearer)

The final hair product - looked so beautiful on her

Before the ceremony - today is also Brytons 3rd Birthday!


Addi loves her cousin Cori!


These two laughing it up after the ceremony!

More later I promise :)

Just Another Day...

Went to the mall today - nothing too exciting just alittle outing to get us out of the house. Was hoping for a little photo op with both of them but Bry fell asleep in the car on the way home and I wasn't about to wake him up for pictures. Addi was not entirely cooperative but the big desert field and cloudy sky look amazing!

New Look

Just trying out a new look - little bit lighter and brighter. Need some re-vamping in a multitude of areas - going to do some spring cleaning out of season! Here is a picture of Addi I somehow overlooked.

Getting better.....

Wow - they updated the layout - always weird when things look different. Blogger improvements are good though.

So everyone seems to be on the mend. We are having a very wet week, cloudy and rainy every day. Sun poked out for a few fleeting moments yesterday - just long enough to snap a few pictures and pull some weeds.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Sick Again

Rough week around here....colds running rampant, we had attack of the flying binky! and yes Addi went to her first day of preschool with a black eye! Had to keep her home today - fever and boogies. It has been rainy so we have been laying low, watching movies and napping (then I have been off to a very busy hospital at night) - we are all ready to start feeling healthy again!
