Surprise Visit

Here's one of Charles-anytime the kids were playing, he had at least one car in each hand. I still can't believe that my little nephew is 17 months old already. Look at that handsome little man.
Look at the concentration on that little face:)
We were playing tag with three cameras-Aunt Lisa with one, me behind another, and Henry has my other camera in hand and is taking pictures of Raddy.

Not only was the house full of people, but we had a house full of animals as well. Raddy(the puppy dog) and Lucky and Drew(two snakes). And then there was also Boots(our cat) and Buddy, BG, and Ella(the three lizards). None of the animals suffered from lack of attention and love.

We were in constant motion either here at the house or at the mall. So taking pictures was hard to do. I'll do better next time. You try getting two four year olds and a 17 month old to stay still and smile long enough to get a picture;)

Last week we had a kinda sorta surprise visit from Aunt Lisa, Uncle Brian, and cousin Charles. They live in Oklahoma and were hit by the ice storm. So after several days of living in one room off of generator power(rather expensive), they called and asked if they could come stay with us for a few days. so they drove down the next day and stayed with us for about a few days. And as usual, we had a wonderful time. I didn't get a family picture this time around, but I did get a few of the kids playing and the lot of us just hanging out.
