They could play in that sand for HOURS... I mean that!

You'd laugh, too, if you saw Belle in the picture below:

Talk amongst yourselves, Dahling - I just got up & the light is waaay too bright for me now... (Check out the leg crossed, the upside down glasses, & the Dora night-gown) She's a HOOT!

This speaks volumes; from the popsycle around the mouth to the typical little boy scrapes (we call them each another badge of honor) , and the CRITTER he is letting crawl on his arm!! Eeewww.

Anna Clare's Christening Day in April. She's wearing the same gown that both Belle & Joseph wore for theirs ( each child's name & Christening date is monogramed on the inside bottom of the gown).

Pretty little Belle on Palm Sunday, 2008.

Anna Clare at roughly 5 weeks. She is the sweetest baby!

Our favorite boy in the world!

Skiing, anyone?! We dont' see snow around here often, so we all got a little excited! This is one of the holes at the Golf Club.

One of my favorite holes - sure is lonely-looking today!

Betsy's here for Anna Clare's arrival, her own b'day, & family-Christmas. A trip to New Orleans followed - see below.

OSU & LSU females do the 2nd Line with their school-decorated parasols; Antoines was the final destination for the brunch. Betsy in New Orleans for all this.

Betsy got to attend the BCS Bowl Brunch in New Orleans, held on the Sat before the national chamiponship game! OSU & LSU wives & others had a blast!

Here's our favorite boy in the whole world...he had a great Christmas!! Sadly, his Cici completely got wrapped up in new babies, Christmas morning, & the day itself & forgot to use her camera that day...

After Belle's b'day party: here's Aunt Kristie playing w/ Belle. See the BAMA game on TV & J3's jersey to the left: RTR
