Mom's Birthday Weekend

Steven had a good time playing on this ball at my sister's house. It's a good ab workout, too ;)

My niece, Mandy, posing for the camera

My sister, Sammy with Sofia

Yes, that is my flip-flop that Emily got ahold of & put in her mouth...

This is the way Steven "dances".  He puts his arms up & twists his body around.  It's very cute :)

Sammy doing my niece, Savanah's hair for the first time.

Savanah with her awesome impromtu hair cover

"Demon Lisa"

My "before" hair.  I don't have a picture of my posing with my "after" hair but you'll see it later.

Marc with Sofia

Sofia smiling at her cousin

Sofia has such a weird hair pattern on her head!  It's like a reverse monk fringe.  There's just a circle of bald.

L-R: Samantha, Mandy, & Steven playing on the tramp @ Lisa's.  I love that Samantha is posing :)

My brother's Dave & Marc got posion oak while helping to move a hot tub.  They didn't realize they had picked it up, though, until they drove to California & wore those same shoes again.  Here's is one of David's legs.  Apparently it got much worse when they got home.

I love this picture of Sammy & Sofia :)

Proof that my son does eat.  I wonder sometimes...

The cousins sitting nicely on the tramp watching someone else do tricks.

That's not chocolate.  That's dirt.

Sammy was playing with Anna?  I just thought she looked crazy in this picture... ;)

Me with my kids :) 

Talking to Mom right after she arrived & was SO SURPISED!  I have a video of it but I think it's too big to put on here.  We totally pulled off the surprise!  It was great :)

Mom holding Sofia.  You can see in her eyes how happy she was :)
