AROUND HERE AND GOING DOWN MEMORY LANE

Around here the battery in my car died
around here we enjoyed our birthday weekend
around here I did another page in my journal
around here I can't wait for soccer season
look how small he was, sigh
watch out for that trick left kick
around here we can't wait for school to start
this was 4 years ago, HOW CUTE
around here I can't wait for FALL!!
around here it's almost time to VOTE
around here a little boy is talking
about his birthday 2 mths. away
around here we love RED,WHITE,BLUE
around here WE MISS KRISTIN AND MIAMI
around here I miss grandpa and grandma together
around here I miss Sienna being little
around here THE MIDDLE is still my fave show!!
 
around here I have to wear a coat in the morning it's that cold
around here I've worn jeans all week, LOVE IT
around here the kids and I LOVE CRAFT WARS
around here Sam has discovered JAMES BOND
around here Sam has new BAYWHEELS
around here Sam just lost a tooth again
around here we watched Mr. Poppers Penquins
around here the dishwasher broke
around here I'm washing dishes by hand
around here Rich and Sam take long bike rides
around here I'M VERRRY EXCITED ABOUT THE NEW PL KITS
around here I'm thinking about December Daily
around here the girls cleaned their whole room, closets, dressers
around here Kristin sent me the BEST BDAY CARD EVER
around here Sam's new teacher called and talked with us, SO NICE
 
Hope you liked this little peek in our world, even a little into our past. I've been going thru our old photos and loved seeing the kids this young, kinda sad but happy too. What do you think if I did more posts like this from the OLD DAYS, haha???  Anyone think it would be fun to walk down memory lane, maybe some of you would like to do this with me??? Let me know.
The babies are coming over today and tomorrow, I MISS THEM!! Rich is taking the kids somewhere FUN today and we might sneak in a Captain's game this tomorrow or next week. This summer is going too fast, gotta squeeze in all our fun now. Hope all of you are doing well!! HUGS!

  1. Yes please Dawn more like this, love the post. Gosh i don't seem to have the time (oops no thats not right) I'm too lazy to even do a post let alone go and find old photos so i will look at yours instead.
    Such a shame we don't live next door as Joe (and yes me) are James Bond fans, Joe has all of the DVD's which he could have tossed your way.
    Cant believe your wearing a coat in the mornings the weather sure does change fast.

    1. Hi Linda, so glad you liked the post. Your comment is too funny, I get lazy sometimes also, it's normal.

      WOW that would be nice to have those DVD's, I never even watched him.

      Yes, the last two weeks have been chilly for my early morning walks with Lucky. The heat is back now though.
      Thanks for visiting, always good to see you! HUGS!

  3. It's so sweet to take a look at the past. Thank you for sharing! It's still in the 90's here so no coat wearing for me! I look forward to the cooler weather though.

    1. Hi Stephanie, so glad you came by!! Yes, it's sweet to look back at the kids so young. Some things I'd forgotten about too. The 90's are coming for us this weekend, so back to shorts and no coats. Crazy weather but it was a nice cool break for me.

  4. I LOVE reading your post today, a glimpse into your life and to see your kids when they were younger. That was just just 4 years back? How they've grown!:). Very sweet kids!. And yeah, tell us more. Maybe once a week would be fun too :).

  6. There is a lot happening "around there" and it is always amusing when everything is happening in reverse here in the Southern Hemisphere. We are longing for spring days and warm days and wearing sandals instead of boots.

  8. Hi Ann,
    Thanks for coming by. These were old pictures so you may not remember them. The foot one is Sam's bee sting this summer and the other foot one is his kicking soccer ball. The card was just perfect and sweet and no gift.

  9. Love this 'Around here' post Dawn. Yes, I think you should posts more of the old pictures and current pictures. How fast the children are growing!! The blue, white, red combination photo of the kids is awesome.
    Have a great week with school news, art stuff, and good weather dear friend.

  10. OMG I loved this post and loved going back in time, what a great idea, hope we see more. Maybe, just maybe I will do a post too, but thats a big maybe LOL. I have to find the photos first then scan, then upload them LOL. Yep I am with Linda, way too lazy.
    Just kidding, will give it some thought though. Still thinking about DD, not really sure how I feel about it yet, might email you over the weekend and have a chat about it.
    Yah Lynette, I am hanging out for summer.
    love me :-)

    1. Hi Tracey, yea you made it over to see this post. I already had these pictures on my computer so it wasn't too hard to find them, just choosing which ones to use first. I will do this again.
      Let me know about DD, not sure for me either! Stay warm over there!!

  11. You guys sure are BUSY! Lots going on at your house :) I get a bit sad looking at old photos...makes me realise how fast the time goes.
    December Daily...now there's a scary thought! I do it every year, so I can't imagine not doing it again for 2012. Mind you, I have given it ZERO thought.
    I'm looking forward to Summer...LOL...but can give Spring a total miss....it's not my favourite :)
    Thanks for the peek into your life...and yes, please do it more often :)

    1. Hi there, glad you could come by. It makes me sad to see these old photos too, time is just flying by too fast for me. Love these memories though.
      Can't wait to see your DD, it is a bit early to think about it but I need to decide and plan. Spring isn't a favorite for me either.
