the ladies man....

Blaine is, indeed, a ladies man. However, he is not yet aware that flirting with your cousins is a social faux pas.

an anniversary and a birthday....

A beautiful hand-crafted pencil that Michael got me for our sixth anniversary. I would have posted a picture of my present to him, but it's already been installed into our computer (a new sound card), lol.

For Michael's 29th birthday, we had dinner and dessert at his parents' home. It was nice to have a lot of family around and I think he had a good time! Only one more year though, to the big 3-0. :)

wonderful surprise!

What a truly wonderful and unexpected surprise! Both Michael and I really wanted to thank our good friends, Mr and Mrs G for this gift basket. You two have always been so gracious, I only hope that we can return the favor!!

Much love,
Michael, Lisa and True (lol)

to live like the amish....

just 'cause.....

new couch, new potatoe....

Hehe...this one's for you Amber. Our new couch rocks!!

like grandfather like grandson...

My dad.

Blaine True.

Creepy? A wee bit. lol. But we can finally come to a consensus on who the little man looks like; Papa Dennis.

happy fathers day...

A great big happy fathers day to two of the most important people in my life! Thank you, dad, for raising me right. I always respected you and never was afraid of you. You've been a wonderful support in my life...I love you~

And to my wonderful husband....you are a wonderful father! I always knew you would be. You have a kind and gentle heart and Blaine's eyes light up whenever he sees you. He loves you so much and I love you too~

license....

I know what you're all thinking; "About dang time!!" So, at the ripe old age of 26, I have finally secured a license to drive for myself. No more jokes about it from here on out. :)

daddy's day....

A little young for this, but cute all the same.

They all managed to close their eyes at the same time, lol. From left to right -
Ben and Andrew, Michael and Blaine, Clark, Caleb and Carter.

black and white....

I love being able to create through the keys of a piano. What medium do you like to create with?

sunday dress.....

"Look at me, I'm all grown up. I get to wear a collared shirt and dress pants. I'm ready for church, so bring it on!"

~happy mothers day~

Happy Mothers Day! I wanted to let my mother, grandmother,aunts, sisters and friends know that I love them and appreciate them. But, especially you mom. Thank you for raising me and teaching me what was right. I only hope that I am wise enough to use those lessons for my own son. I will always appreciate the guidance that you have given me. I love you~

"i think i can, i think i can...."

I've found myself being rather negative lately, but really...have no reason to be. I think I've just gotten into the habit of complaining. The day after I gave birth to Blaine, my sister-in-law brought me the sweetest gift; a bag filled with treats and magazines that I love. Anyway, in one of the mags I read an article about "A Complaint Free World". The idea is to go 21 days without making a single complaint. To help remind you of your task, you wear this purple bracelet. If you do catch yourself whining, you switch the bracelet to your other wrist and start over. So I'm taking the plunge and I'm ready to make my life more positive. I've ordered myself a bracelet. :) But get this.....it's free! You can go to their website to order one and they will send it to you without you having to spend a penny. If you're a generous person though, you can make a donation (please do).

So I'm throwing this challenge out to all of you. I'm not a member of their church, but I think they're doing a wonderful thing, don't you? Join me!

"you can cry me a river"....

Call me a terrible mom, but I think it's cute when Blaine crys. Well, not that he cries but how cute his cry is and the look on his face! Daddy rescued him, though.

"baby got back"....

Check out this ghetto booty.

Getting cleaner!


Okay...this little guy is just adorable. This was the first time that he's actually enjoyed his bath. :)

overdue do.....

About time I guess. Summer is here and I thought that I would make a change. But it was all for a good cause and I donated the rats nest to Locks of Love. :)

happy easter....

Happy Easter to my family and friends! When you imagine all of the possibilities that are open to you through the resurrection, how can you not just love this day?? Remember what you're thankful for and pass it on.

update 2007.....

Since everyone else changed their blog, why shouldn't I? Yeah, I know....just call me Lemming.

back by popular demand......

What's up, my homies?

You want a piece of me?

It's WoW time!

Check out the chub.

You asked for it....you got it. lol. Goodness knows, I could never get tired of seeing his face. Hope you all enjoy the pictures...love you!
