Family pictures

Well, I know I'm a slacker and horrible at keeping a blog, but I promise that I will in the future continue to be consistently inconsistent with my updates.

We have had a lot going on this past month and I really need to post the pictures of Nikki getting her Gold belt in karate. That will be the next update, promise mom.

This weekend my neighbor called and said "it's a beautiful weekend and you wanted to get pictures of your kids so lets do it in a few hours". My first thought was that I was really enjoying my lazy no plans Saturday, but then I decided to say yes and capture my beautiful children on film (or computer I guess). Here are some of the pictures my neighbor took. She did a really good job and considering that Milo is only three months old and totally uncooperative, Mason thought it was more fun to be goofy and clown around than smile, and Nikki decided to play bashful and coy, I think she got a lot of great shots. Thank you Marianne, your amazing!!
These two pictures of Mason in the blue shirt are his preschool pictures that Marianne took a few weeks ago.

If I were born in another era...

So the story behind these pictures is that I got stuck on hold with Delta Airlines for about an hour trying to switch our airline tickets around for our Disney trip in December. I was playing around with Facebook and one of my friends (Staci Johnson) had a new picture that she made at www.yearbookyourself.com so since I was bored I tried it out and got hooked. Ridiculous, and time wasting I know, but it was so fun!! Beware if you try it out. You might waste precious time in your day as well. This is me in the 1950's.
In the 1960's my glasses were a little lopsided, but I was definitely stylin.
I think I could pull off my 1968 do, if I just tamed the big curls at the end?????
1976 wasn't as kind but it could be worse...
This is their idea of 1994 and I have to say I looked a lot better in 1994 than this!!! This looks much more like the 80's to me.
Hope you enjoyed and laughed, and hopefully you aren't off to waste your time now.
