Just Another Day In Paradise!

This year, we had a small barbecue at home for Denny & Kirby's birthdays since they're only 5 days apart.

They don't look anything alike, do they? ;-)



I can't believe how tall he's getting!

I'm really not doing well with this photo of the day thing......but I still love taking pics of my babies. Here's some recent pics of the more cooperative one:

Ok, this pic of the day thing isn't going very well. :( Evenings are so hectic in my house that I almost always forget to take pics! So, for now, I'm gonna try and get at least once pic a week of each kid. No guarantees, though. :( Maybe when it gets warmer out, I'll be more motivated.

Hey, I'm getting better at this! It's only Monday and I'm already uploading last week's pics! Hahahaha!!! Enjoy!

Oh well, see ya next week!

To say my husband and his father and brothers are into weapons is an understatement to say the least. Obsessed would be more fitting. Anyway, whenever we go to Grandpa Jack's house, the boys take almost a whole day to go out shooting. For the most part, Denny's never been much into guns or hunting or anything like that - even though he was raised around them. He's always liked shooting, but not enough to want to go out with the men when they go shooting. Until this year! Denny really got into guns and shooting this year and since Santa brought him a 10-22 rifle for Christmas. Since I had more important things to do - like lay around in my jammies and watch movies with Rianna and Nancy - Uncle Tom stepped up to the plate and captured the moments of Denny shooting probably every weapon they took:
