Do you know how hard it is to get 5 kids to look good and smile at the same time. Hard, very hard. This picture is perfect, except for ME glorious me!!! Dang blinking!!

This is the next shot. I am amazed at how quickly the camera can capture images. You might say in the blink of an eye! Thanks Mike for taking these great shots. No easy feat getting seven of us to look good! You are a true miracle worker! Check out his photography site here

Sick and Tired!!!



I kid you not, for the past month we have just been hammered with sickness!!! I can't even believe how hard we have been hit. From vomit to coughing attacks you name it we have had it. I am amazed at how it just goes from person to person. Right now we have the aching coughing sneezing total ny-qul commercial. 4 out of the 5 kids are sick and one out of the two parents are sick. YUCK!!!! We are downing fluids, and getting plenty of rest, but frankly, I am D.O.N.E. done!!! Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!
My greatest wish would be to be able to open all my windows and have the fresh air just sweep the germs away. But alas, we live in Antartica and can't open windows until June. hee hee!!! I think I'll go eat some fresh picked CALI oranges!!! There is a bright spot!!!
