The Last Day of September

It's the last day of September and what am I thinking about?
CHRISTMAS CARDS!
What photos should I put on it?
Should we do BW or color?
Should we mail them or email them?
Can you believe it's time to think about Christmas?
I suppose there are those of you who already have
your Christmas presents bought and hidden.
I'm not there yet . . . not even close!
Anyway, here are the front runners for the Christmas card.
Don't look too hard because you'll probably see them again
in a couple of months . . . around the holiday season.:)

A Week in Review

My baby has a full head of hair.
So we curl it.
Of course, big sister wants her hair curled too.
Oh the joy . . .
Potty training.
Again.
It's sooo much fun . . . NOT.
Whatever!

Two of my boys are on the same flag FB team.
We spend most of our Saturday mornings
watching our three oldest boys playing FB.
Go Packers! Go Colts!
Then we spend the afternoons watching/listening
to BYU FB. Go COUGARS!
My four-year-old is learning to do dishes.
The two-year-old wants to play in the water.
Is my life making you jealous? He-he.
This is what life is all about, right?
The joy of motherhood.
It's the most important thing I can in this life: be a good mom.
(I have to keep reminding myself of that.)

Where's Mom?

My boys pointed out that there aren't any photos of me.
Except those that are almost two years old.
So, I had them take some pix of me this weekend.
My 7-year-old (Darth Tater or Tate Windu) took this photo.

My 10-year-old took this one.

My hubby took this one.

As usual, I'm in a t-shirt and sweats.
Very formal attire for around the house.:)
I guess I'm the family photographer.
That's why I'm not in many photos of the family.
I couldn't resist taking some shots of the kids too.

The Kids are Back in School. YAHOO!

Can you believe I forgot to take "the first day of school" pics this year?
How lame am I?
Here they are a week late.
2nd grade, 5th grade, 3rd grade.
The HAMS!
This is the first year EVER that I've looked forward to school starting.
Can you remember the days when you looked forwarded to
having "only three kids" at home during the day?
It's amazing what I can get done with only three kidlets helping me:)

Our Summer Soccer Boy



Our cousin reffed a couple of his games.

I forgot to include Taterbug's soccer pics.

Can't leave him out.

Some Fun Stuff

Oh Happy Day!
She will finally leave a headband in her hair.
It's a Girl Thing, Right?
Unfortunately, this is a mood we see a lot of.
Swimming with Cousin
Swimming with Cousin
At Grandpa's House

Almost Fifty Clarke Grandkids: WOW!

BIG DAY:
Her Hair is Long Enough for Pig Tails.



Craters of the Moon.

How do you like her hat?

Sisters, Sisters. There were never such devoted sisters.


With the New School Year, Piano Lessons Start Again.

And Finally, Flag Football Season is Now Upon Us.
