Twin, oh twin

I've always known my brother Cameron and I are too much alike for our own good----we're both pretty much crazy! :D I came across this picture on his blog and about died laughing---out loud even. These pictures were taken on the same night but at different times and without the knowledge of the other. We had gone to dinner for Lindsay's birthday at the Mayan and when we came out I thought it would so funny for Ryan to take a picture of me pretending to be eaten by the snake. Apparently Cam thought the same thing. Oh and extra bonus points if you can name the "What show, What show" in the title of this entry.

World Market

I went to the World Market Furniture show with Ryan's mom this year. I was hoping to be able to find a suitable reclining loveseat for our family room. I had a lot of fun looking at all the things they had for sale. It was a good chance for me to be with Ryan's parents as well, since we don't get to see them that often.

Happy Birthday Cannon!

Cannon turned 2 this year! I can't believe how grown up he's getting. He's such a cute little guy and LOVED opening his presents. He was so excited with everything he got----even the clothes, which he insisted on wearing--we were just lucky no one gave him any underwear. I think my favorite thing we said was when he opened some new shoes he proclaimed "they're not too tight!" I loved how excited and grateful he was for everything he received.

 

SUPERBOWL

My mom throws a great super bowl party---no matter who's playing. She's always got lots of yummy food--lots and lots. She's such a great mom, her fun parties are just one of the many many reasons I love her! Since the Steelers were my Fantasy Football defense I was rooting for them, although the food and commercials is really the only thing I care about :)

 

Bowling

Ryan and I decided to go bowling for our date night at the local bowling alley. It was a pretty fun time. Of course Ryan bowled much better than I did, but at least I had fun. I did bowl a few good frames. Of course Ryan got lots of strikes which produced smiles and happy dances, I of course got some gutter balls which produced pouty faces. It was a good time and I loved doing something different with my husband.

 

Happy First Birthday Morgan

Morgan turned one year old! WOW! I can't believe she's been in our family for a year. We celebrated with dinner, presents and cake. Morgan loved the Minnie Mouse we got her---almost as much as Emily did. She did love her cake, and really got into eating it--and smearing it everywhere. We love you Mo-mo!!!!

 

Bad example

Ok, this probably shouldn't be blogged about, but I want to remember how funny Josh thinks he is. At Morgan's party, Cameron took a plastic banana out of the kids' play kitchen and started making jokes with Ryan O about a banana in his pocket. Josh thought it was so funny he actually put the banana in Missy's pocket and then asked her if that was a banana in her pocket. We all laughed and he thought he was being so funny and actually "got" what his dad and uncle were doing.
