Mackenzie has become ruthless in her pursuit to pick up the KiKi's.......This is where Murphy retreated to for safety and a little rest.

Look even Kenzie's tired from chasing her around all day.

Miles complained the other day that I don't get very many pictures of him with his baby sister. I explained to him it wasn't because I don't want to but he's usually too busy doing something outdoors. So this is for my Wild Turkey.... And what a good picture of him I might say. He is such a cutie and a real charmer just like his dad. I've been getting so many compliments on his behavior, attitude and personality at church lately. We are really proud of him. He's now involved in our church's youth group and he's going through confirmation so that he can make the decision join the church. He's getting involved in a after school prayer group. We are very proud of the young man he is becoming.

Did I already say we were proud? Oops. Not bragging just happy that he's finding his way.

Went for wagon ride on Saturday.
Passed by the FUN, FESTIVE, FREAKY house. They have a giant teddy bear holding a heart in the yard. Mackenzie waves at it every time we pass by. I'll get a picture tomorrow. They also have every other Valentine's Day decoration that they offer at Walmart, KMart and Target. These people decorate for every holiday. July 4th, St. Patricks, Easter, Thanksgiving, Flag Day, PResidents Day, etc..... Where do they find the time or energy....I'm lucky if we get Christmas lights on the house. Anyway, it's a bit much for my taste but all three kids have always enjoyed it.

Miles, I am proud of you too. You are growing up too fast and you're handsome to. Watch out girls!

I love the pic of Kenzie waving at the bear...too too cute!

When we lived in PA, one of our neighbors decorated like that. It always made me laugh - so tacky but I'm sure done with good intentions. They had two of those white framed deer with lights on them for Christmas and would keep them up all year round and incorporate them into the current decorations. The deer got bunny ears, leprechaun hats, uncle sam hats, pilgrim hats. My husband and I used to actually look forward to the new decorations so we could giggle at them.

She sure is cute in her wagon!!!!!

Other than Christmas, my idea of decorating is to change out the mini flag in the front. And some holidays I don't even manage that!

I am totally with Alleen on the decorating thing! She sounds just like me! I may put out new spring or fall placemats or towels in the kitchen- but not always!

Mackenzie is getting cuter all the time!!
