Sly little Slider

Last Sunday we celebrated all the August/September birthdays with Cory's mom and siblings. We had amazing bbq steak tacos (with delicious black beans and salsa made by Cory) and there was an awesome park for the kids to play at. Dotty even said "Oyee" for the first time. That of course means Ollie.
Dotty especially liked climbing all the way up to slide by herself and she felt pretty awesome about it as demonstrated by this great pic "mahma" donnay captured.



I love it! Thanks Donnay.

I want to make this

Isn't it awesome?

Apple Orchard Overalls GIVEAWAY !!!!!!!

Tee Time

3form had a Golf Tournament a couple of weeks ago and though I don't play- I attended to tak pictures. Dotty came for a bit and was dressed very gold appropriate. I love what she is saying in each picture.


"Mom, don't cramp my style"


"Let's hit the Green"


"Golf is a lot like life..."

She is definately a little performer.We caught her singing and playing her piano (or miamo as she calls it) the other day and got it on tape. After watching the footage a couple of times she apparently memorized the performance. She recreated the same show at the piano the next day. Looking up to a non-existent cory and laughing the same way, pretending to put her music rack back on just at the same time... It was SOOO funny. I'll have to catch that on tape too...

Dotty and French Canadian dancing

Dotty absolutely loves this dance. She remains still, staring, mesmerized the entire length of the dance. Cory doesn't like her to watch because he thinks it will give her nightmares, but I think she doesn't know its creepy yet and just loves the bunnies and the music and the movement.

The Aquariium

Cory took Dot to the Aquarium with Oliver a few weeks ago and this was my favorite picture he took. Doesn't she look so enthralled? That's my scholar- soberly studying the world around her.

Prop 8

my friend Sarah posted her concerns about her stance on this hot issue here

She found the letter on a blog that links to this interview

What are your thoughts?

For Greg

Greg chastized me for not blogging regularly {read: not at all} anymore. So I put it in my calendar to remind me to blog-I now have a recurring meeting reminder to upload new photos and blog. Thank you data phone! Here are my favorite pics that I have from the Hudson 08 reunion. I still can't believe we didn't take a family picture all in our t-shirts.
