Fancy Chloe!

Hey there!

Below are pictures from Chloe's 1st birthday party. Such a cute little girlie! We love her so much and get such a kick out of her. She's growing up fast, and her personality is really coming out -- through her small, toothy grins and all!! :-)

As I said in another post, we had a Fancy Nancy party. (I'll try to find a link for her once I get one!) Anyways, enjoy some of these snapshots from her party!

The Cake!!

Waiting timidly for the party to begin! ;-)
You guessed it -- Fancy Nancy!

Even sparkles in her hair!

Awww!!

Everyone was decked out to the hilt!

Grandmas & Granddaughter

Happy Birthday!

Hello all!

Hope you all enjoyed a nice Christmas! We enjoyed ours! It was fairly relaxed and Griff, Bek, and Chloe came over to celebrate the holiday with us. Pictures soon to follow! ;-)

Well, guess what? It's someone's 2nd birthday - mine!! (What, you thought I was older?!) Okay, okay, it's actually my BLOG's 2 year birthday today. Over the past two years, I have written/posted 152 posts - published and unpublished, utilized hundreds of templates, displayed pictures, and met new friends. I've throughly enjoyed my blogging years and will look forward to more in the future!

So, at this time I would like it if you (that means all my blogging buddies, friends, family and the "lurkers"!), to take just a moment and leave a comment telling me a little bit about yourself, where you're from, and how you found my blog.

Thanks so much!

Happy Birthday!

Q & A

Last week, I asked you all what you thought Molly's favorite dessert is...and here's the answer! Cheesecake!! She absolutely loves it! In fact, she says she almost can't contain herself when there's cheesecake around. *smile*

Thanks for guessing, girls!

Another birthday girl!

Happy Birthday, Miss Molly!!! You have now lived one decade!!! *smile*

Okay, blog readers and friends, I have one question for you to answer: what is one dessert that Molly absolutely LOVES?

Tanner's birthday!

Here are some pictures of Tanner's birthday celebration. Since Tann enjoys making short films, we decided to use that as a springboard and decorate the birthday table in movie memorabilia.

Having fun with the decor!

Just having fun!

Make a wish!

Classic!

The Tann-Man

Well, another birthday has come and gone at our household! Saturday, November 1st, Tanner turned 15 years old! One thing I remember about Tanner's birth, is my mom holding on to the back of our dining room chair on October 31st--she was in labor. Today, Tanner is now about my dad's height (which he loves)! Tann is a very creative, inovative young man who enjoys playing basketball, soccer, making "movies", creating images on the computer, and becoming more like a man every day!

We love you, Tann!

Happy Birthday!

Dad's Day!!

David Roy M. was born in Charleston, South Carolina, August 30th, 19??. Dad is the eldest of three boys (neither of my parents have sisters!), who grew up in the great state of Indiana. For over 15 years, Dad has been a computer programmer and has developed his own dental software. Our dad enjoys spending time with his family (especially his wife!), basketball and softball, and is a big IU fan. He has been a great provider for our family, and we love him!

Happy Birthday, Dad!!

Bek's Birthday!

Rebekah S. came into this world on August 12th, 1982--but she’s a brand new addition to our family! That’s right, Rebekah Allison became the beloved bride of our eldest brother, Griff. They were married last fall and are expecting their first little one this coming January! Bek is a very selfless young woman and we have truly come to love her. She enjoys being with her guy, jogging, spending time with family and friends, has always loved to mess with hair (which means we have our own stylist!)as well as camping, and lots of other things. We just want to wish her a very (belated) happy birthday!!

We love you, Bek!!

25 Years

That's right, another birthday! My oldest brother, Griffin, arriving on Mother's Day, May 8th, 1983, celebrated his 25th birthday last week. He's the oldest of our gang and has been a wonderful brother to me and my siblings. Griff likes to work out, plays soccer & softball, enjoys spending time with family and friends, and most of all, absolutely loves spending time with his sweetheart and bride, Bek. We have had the best big brother in Griff and wish him a very happy birthday!!

Happy Birthday, Griff!

12 Years Old

Thatcher, our youngest boy in the family just turned 12 years old on Tuesday, April 22nd. Thatch is our little "bundle" of joy! He loves to play/watch football, practically goes wherever Tanner goes, is caring, loves the color red, tells jokes and can do something none of the rest of us can do--bend his pointer finger almost all the way backwards to where it touches the back of his hand!

We love you, Thatch! Happy Birthday!!

"The Lady Loves Pink"

Well, today is a special day for someone special in our home. It's our mom's birthday! Roxanne Martin came into this world on February 27th. She is the third child and only daughter in her family. When my grandma found out that it was a girl, all she could say was, "Goody, goody, goody." :-)

Mom is a very caring, thoughtful, loving, and fun mother who absolutely LOVES the color pink, and is a major KU fan. We love her so much and have been blessed to have her as our mother.

Happy Birthday, Mom!

Nine Years Old!

Well, I’m very late in writing this, but needed to get it posted. Molly turned 9 years old last Wednesday, January 30th. Molly has a unique story. Nine years ago, on January 29th, our family was planning on moving our belongings into our new home. However, we didn’t plan on Mom going into labor the very same day! (The night before, my dad jokingly told her to take it easy or she might have the baby--he was right)! Molly arrived at midnight, January 30th, but wasn't breathing immediately. However, the Lord miraculously worked and she began breathing. Molly is a very thoughtful young lady who enjoys tea parties, playing with her brothers, likes helping in the kitchen when it comes to baking, and is the most affectionate child we’ve ever had.
We love you Molly!

Birthdays!

Hey everyone! I was wondering if you all could help me out. I would like to get the date of your birthday. There is no need for you to list the year of your birth. I would just like to know when your birthday is for my own personal reference. Sometimes I can't remember which day Susie's birthday is or Jane's. Anyway, please let me know by making a comment to this post, along with your name and the initial of your last name. Thank you!!!

Sixteen Candles

2 years old

Well, today is a very special day for someone...it's Abby's 16th birthday! Ab has grown into a beautiful young lady. She is disciplined, enjoys photography, loves to play soccer, plays the piano by ear, loves her friends and family, and likes to go hiking, swimming, and running. She is also serious about her relationship with the Lord. We love you, Abby, and wish you a very Happy Sweet Sixteenth Birthday!
