New Camera!

I'm so excited! What's this excitement for, you ask? A new camera! Roy and I finally got a new camera to replace our old, dead one. Finally I will be able to take pictures of the kids and hopefully do some more blogging! Thanks Oma and Pa for the fabulous Christmas presents! I took some random pictures of the kids and the Christmas Tree! The camera shoots super fast and I love it! And best of all, it's a pretty plum color! HoHoHoHoHo Merry Christmas!





Don't ask me what kind of face Audrey is making. And on another note......you may notice Roy's very long hair in the picture. He will not cut his hair and it's killing me. So if you can, whoever reads this blog, call him and tell him to cut his hair before I do it in his sleep....I'm totally not joking!

Halloween and Roy's Birthday

So here is a ton of pictures from Halloween and Roy's birthday! Roy was Clark Kent, Evy was Tinkerbell, Audrey was a ladybug, and I was a ninja (I know you can't tell from the pcitures! There's one pic of Audrey that is hilarious, it's of her trying to get away from one of our Halloween decorations. Evy got tons of candy and we all had tons of fun.

Roy's getting old at the age of 29. But sadly, I have more grey hair than he does....how is that fair?

Enjoy!

Boating

This past summer we spent some time at the Lake. There are a couple of pictures that I could not resist posting. Now, I must admit, that these are not the prettiest pictures of myself. But going to the Lake does not require make-up and apparently I make hilarious faces when on the tube!

Eclipse Movie Premier

I know I have been bad. But I have reasons for not blogging. These are the reasons: I have had no computer, I have had no camera, and I have been moving. I don't know about you but life has been a little crazy for me! So I am going to start off with the best post ever: Eclipse Movie Premier. These pictures are all courtesy of the AWESOME Candis....so you can thank Candis!



So the movie was good! I don't know if I loved it, but I thoroughly enjoyed myself. And I loved the life-size cardboard cutouts of Edward and Jacob. And I know what you're thinking,........Don't judge!



The greatest Sister-in-law flew all the way from DC to come. We had all the girls there and even Papa Dennis. Here's a picture of all the Kelly Girls.

Sisterly Love

Mom and I were cleaning out the garage this afternoon and I turn around and see this.


Evy had hooked up her bike to Audrey's car, so that when she peddled Audrey was pulled along. It made me so happy to see that. And Evy was so proud of herself. This leads me to believe that maybe one day they will be the best of friends..... hopefully!

Evy also told me today that I am the Bestest Mom she has ever had because I rented a Barbie movie from the Redbox. If only life were that simple........

Funny Pictures

My Mom and I were running errands the other day and I look back and see Evy like this. She had gotten those glasses at Wendys that day. I think she looks so sassy, especially with her legs crossed. And here is another picture that I found on my Dad's camera of my favorite brother and the bestest sister-in-law! Looks like Sean is trying to look gangsta with his hat....good luck Sean!

Big News!!!

ROY GOT THE JOB IN CHARLOTTE! Yay!!!!!!!! We get to stay here! We rented out a townhouse in Willowmere so it looks like we will be in the Weddington Ward again. It's really funny how things work out.

And just for fun... here's a picture of EVy and her cousin Bria in Santa Cruz. It was 60 degrees and freezing in the water but they were determined to go in the water. So here's a picture for your enjoyment!

4th of July

Our fourth of July took up 2 days. We started off by going to the Carlson's Annual 4th of July party. They had this insane blow up slide that I think Evy must have gone down 100 times. She had a blast. It was fun to get out and see friends.





On Sunday I made us all match. It was important to me to have us patriotic. I love this holiday and I love our country! So that means we are going to go to church and we are going to match.....thanks, Roy, for going along :).

That night we had some new friends from church come over. They stayed for dinner and went home to put the kids to bed. But when the sun went down the party began! Our favorite neighbors and their kids came over and we lit our fireworks in the cul-de-sac. Evy had a blast! The fireworks were awesome and the company was even better! Evy loves Larry and Leslie and I talked her into letting me take a picture with her and Evy, Seriously, this weekend was so fun and we enjoyed the extra time we go to spend with Roy!

Nickelodean Storytime Live

My sister, Sabrina, called me up a month ago to see if Evy and me wanted to go. Well we bought the tickets and went today. It was four of the Nickelodeon shows in different segments. It was really cool to see Evy loved Dora best of all. We tried to take lots of pictures but the kids were to busy watching the show to look at the camera. It was special to do something with just Evy.
