NY Trip Post #3

Fair warning. This post is going to be super-duper picture heavy. :-) See...I warned you. But I didn't want to leave anything out. So... little background since I won't be posting a caption for every picture. These are from Friday the 7th. The day of the wedding. I hope you all enjoy the pictures.

We woke up bright and early to head across the river to DUMBO so Sweet E could get her hair done with all the girls. She wasn't real sure what to think. She has never had her hair done up, or even cut, by someone other than me. She was a real trooper. The poor girl was so tired that all she wanted to do was lay down. We couldn't let her though because we were afraid of her hairdo falling down. (Which we had to fix twice anyway *roll eyes*). Oh well. :-)


I thought these flip flops were great. The bridesmaids had black ones with their names on them.


Breakfast with a hint of hairspray....yummy ;-)


I just had to show this picture because (1) We have never seen Mom with this many curls and (2) you can see all the hairspray in the air. I think I ate about a half a can worth. LOL The thing is....we used even more hairspray after we got back to the hotel.



The next set of picture were taken at the church.




We had some time to kill after the ceremony and before cocktail hour started. My parents and my family went to the pier so the children could see the boats and just have a look around.


The pirate ship (well, that's what the children called it)


And finally the last set of pictures were taking at Bridgewaters, the reception site.

Sweet E and A



About 30 seconds after this picture Sweet E was out like a light.



All the K cousins minus 1


All the L cousins minus...well....about half.


My Mama and Daddy


My Sissy and my new Brother.


Thank you Sissy for sharing your special day with us. Sweet E loved being the flower girl. Big T was so excited about getting all dressed up and helping pass out bulletins. Little E enjoyed taking the subway and running around. And Special K, well, I think she enjoyed all the attention. :-)

Show and Tell Friday (10/5)

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! This week I wanted to Show off Big T's latest adventure. Last week he attended Bible school and Grandma S' church. The theme was Avalanche Rance and I know there are a LOT of churches doing this one. It fit him perfectly since he has a love of horses. So I just wanted to share a few pictures from the last night of Bible school....or as Big T calls it, Cowboy School . ;) Here is a picture of Little E and Grandpa S waiting for the program to start. The next two pictures are of the children standing up front. Not good pictures, but you can tell they all have the "deer in the...
