The Storm


Oh a few weeks back there was this storm...We had 80 mph winds!

This was on a different day, but the sky was so cool looking!
               This was my first attempt of getting lighting pictures...They aren't too bad :-)


The trees kept on getting in the way :-(

And this is our trampoline after the storm....it blew 1/2 mile away

The Trio Trip

We went on a trip!! Brittney, Michael, and I all went down to Texas on the train. Just the three of us! It was so much fun! But the real reason we went down there is because my Grandfather was having surgery the day after his birthday...so we went down to see him. But sadly the hospital would not let us take any pictures of us and him.

Fort Worth here we come!


The Amtrak

My dearest mother  watching her oldest children depart for the first time 



Ok, so my other Grandfather LOVES Harleys. So he was super excited to "show off" his motorcycle to his three grand kids. He took us for a ride. It was a BLAST!!




We went to this pretty neat place in Arlington

You fit as much stuff as you can in this bowl

Michael piled his bowl full of meat  

And then they cook it on this big round grill type thing. It was sooo good!!


We headed off to see some of my  cousins on their new farm.

This is Emily
 Abby...

And this is Nathan







For some odd, strange reason, little kids LOVE Michael! :-)

As Promised.....

All About Brianna!!
From the person who knows her best.....
(I hope y'all know what a major undertaking this is!!!)

This is my BEST friend in the WHOLE world...
...the only one who comes close is Michael :-)

It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words...so I tried to find as many pictures to describe her as I could.....

She is a cute country girl with a sense of humor...

She is extremely loyal to her friends and family....

She is a baby and little kid magnet~ and she loves it!!

She's very quiet until you get to know her....after that, well...

Her feelings about sewing are very complicated...let's just say she likes the results.

The country mouse is in the city; and she's likin' it....
But not for long :-)

Her talents include music; among other things :-)

Random: that's a good word to describe her.

Random Facts:


 She talks in her sleep...and kicks....
She has a fascination with phones- she used to have a cell phone graveyard in her end table drawer. 

Her laugh is very unique ~ it sounds like she's wheezing
Her hiccups sound like a squawking goose~ at least that's what it reminds me of... 
She is usually mixing up her words like "packback" and "pimming sool"
She is good at directions~ which is good, because I am NOT
She is very patient with computers and little kids~ something else that I am NOT
She hates doughnuts~ except blueberry cake ones
Even though she is four years younger than me, people are always asking if we are twins...grrr...


Well, I know I probably missed a lot, but there it is! A short bio of my wonderful sister... 


~Brittney

Oh, I almost forgot! She makes the best meatballs EVER!!! Her own recipe...all by smell. 
Her sense of smell is amazing!! She calls them "Much Touch Meatballs"
