Mayan Families Calendar!!

I am thrilled to announce that there will be a 2009 Mayan Families Calendar this year! Sharon contacted my good friend, Catherine, to create a 2009 calendar for Mayan Families. I was asked to join in the project with some of my pictures from my trip last fall and we worked with our wonderful, technical friend, Nancy to pull it all together and voila... open for orders!!

So come on... don't you need one for your wall at home and your desk at work to reminded daily of the beauty of the Mayan people and Guatemala?? If you order by November 30th, they should arrive for holiday gift giving! Orders will also be taken in the month of December for delivery after the holidays. You can paypal directly to the yahoo e-mail address above.

That is Sharon's daughter, Aleeyah, as Miss January. She is ADORABLE! I loved listening to her talk... her mother would talk to her in English and she would respond in Spanish.

If you are interested in ordering, please see the information above. All proceeds go directly to Mayan Families! Please feel free to post on your blogs to spread the word!!

"Way Back" Word It For Me Weekend

You all crack me up!! I am LOVING the captions!!! I think I need to pick the top ten, not just one... but I think the winner is:

"I know you told me not to stick my finger in there, but I couldn't resist!"
by Alleen!!

OK... I had so much fun with this the last time, I must do it again. Help come up with a caption for this picture of Bug admiring her first little set of piggy tails! OMG! Was she really this tiny once? Look at her little bald spot on the back of her head... she was 8 months old here. I will pick the winning caption and post it here Monday night!

Hope you had a wonderful weekend! I have a teenager (Morgan) with a very nice case of mono and a raging sinus infection, so we pretty much stayed home this weekend to care for my poor precious princess... definitely no fun! I know I have ALOT of catching up to do with the blog... soon, I promise!

Favorite Foto Friday #62-PUMPKINS!

My Pumpkins

My favorite time of year! Our annual trek to the pumpkin patch! Above is my favorite picture since all three kids are smiling and not killing each other - LOL!

Sophie loved the field of pumpkins! Here she is testing one out!

My beautiful big girl and her chosen gourd.

Sophie is really into her big sister right now and followed her around to learn the ropes.

Those vines are tricky! Luckily, Sissy was there to help her back up!

My goofy boy showing me his pumpkin!

Wow! There are alot to choose from.

Found the perfect one!

This sucker's heavy!

This little greenie is cute too, Mommy.

Gotta hate it when you get something in your crocs!

Farmer Sophie!

This wheel's bigger than me!

Love my pumpkins!

Prayers for these baby girls

Many of you have already been praying for these precious babies, but if not, please send some prayers up for beautiful Bella...



and precious Abby!

.

Both of these beautiful girls are fighting cancer right now and dealing with some difficult days. Please hold them and their families up in prayer!!

And, Angel has begun a campaign called Operation Princess Hair to give Abby some new temporary hair and cute ball caps until her gorgeous hair grows back in. Please go to Angel's Blog to see how you can help!!

And as I have learned... Love, Hugs and F.R.O.G. (Fully Rely On God),

"Word It For Me" Weekend

OK... a new little meme that I thought might be fun...

Please help me with a caption for this picture from the weekend... dont-cha just love her expression? She is saying something with that face... you tell me!

The winner is.....

WHATCHU TALKIN ABOUT WILLIS?!
Submitted first by Tricia

(so funny... as that was one of my first thoughts too... just perfect!)

I will post the winner of the best caption Monday evening... I don't have a give-a-way to reward you with... but you will get credit for the caption!

EDITED: This was ALOT of fun... I am going to do this again! I love all the great quotes!!!

In other weekend happenings... fall is finally here and the weekend was GORGEOUS with crystal clear blue skies and crisp fall air. We made it out to the Zoo Halloween Party with Becca and Ella and the girls had fun. It was packed and Sophie and Ella had to warm up to each other and the sights of all the various costumes and decorations, but I think they had a great time! Becca and I loved catching up with each other... if you ever have the time to hang out with her, she is one cool chica! Here are some pictures of our fun night out!

My little kitty cat!

With Ella the Pumpkin!

Gathering in the loot~!

Checking out the martians

Gorgeous!

Shakin their groove thing with the headless mama (aka Becca)!

And a flashed out picture of the tired little ghouls and their mamas!

Oh... and we ran into our friends, Roberto with his new little sister, Eliana, in the parking lot on the way out! Of course, I grabbed a quick photo of those cutie patooties as well! Can't wait to spend more than five minutes with them soon too ~ the days go by so quickly!

Eliana has been home two months already and is getting ready to celebrate her first birthday next weekend! Is she not precious? And she has dimples just like her big brother!


We also made it to the Pumpkin Patch today. I will have to save those pictures for another post and will save my favorite for FFF this week!

Hope you had a great weekend too!
