Taylor has a Tongue

And she loves to use it! It's her new fascination lately, so I thought I'd post a few pictures of her sticking it out for the world to see. :o)

It was also a day for wearing red & cowboy hats. :o)

She certainly makes us laugh! Hope she made you laugh, too!

Taylor's first Trim!

Well, as you can see, Taylor's hair was getting a bit wispy & long in the front. Poor girl had too much hair in her eyes! The worst part was when she'd brush it out of her eyes at dinner-time....messy baby hands and long hair don't mix. :o) So we decided to give our little 7 1/2 month-old's bangs a trim!

Here's the "before" shot:And another before:
And another! She's just too cute to not add a bunch of pics!



Now time for the "After" shot.
Here's how the cut turned out:


I think she'd just precious!


One thing is for sure....no more headbands worn at dinner time!


Congratulations, Taylor! You're a big girl now!

THANKSGIVING!

Here I am, at the end of February, trying to play catch-up with my blogging efforts. I'm posting everything as close to it's original date as possible (I don't want events out of order!), putting in a ton of pictures, & not spending a lot of time writing captions. Sorry there's no explanation, but maybe you will like it better that way! :o) Happy reading!

Here's our Thanksgiving--we had lots of family over at our home--It wasn't all of the Sherwood clan, but quite a nice gathering! We don't get to come together all that often, living all over the country, so this was a very nice holiday!

Time for a Turkey-bowl with the Kids.... & the little kids, too. :o)

In the huddle...

These videos show all the fun!

************

It's Snack-Time before we eat the big meal. :oD Turkey's still in the oven...we're starved...we eat!!!

Of course, we need cheese-ball, shrimp, fruit & dip, & veggies & dip. Anything less would be less. Anything more would be welcome. :o)

Kenzie loved listening to the guitar as David played.

I'd have to say she's got her ear to the best spot!
THE FEAST!!!

Adult table:Kid table:
Baby table!
Mark, Sharolyn & their whole crew came for an evening visit! What a great surprise! We were all excited to see them! (Mom was in tears when it was time to leave!)

Chatting about memories...

Mary, Emilee, & Joy.
We should have all faced the same way (& I shouldn't have looked so exhausted!) so you can tell how much we look a-like!

Mom & Dad with 4 of their kids (& two grandkids)

Grandma & Grandpa with as many grandkids as we could get! Some were sleeping, some were crying, some were hiding.... still a one-in-a-million picture! Someday we'll get everyone together. ;o)

It turned out to be quite the fun day! Taylor even survived with a grin still on her face!

Thanks for all the help, Mom & Mary! We all had fun together!

Remember Wax Lips?

I do!

I remember going to the Super C store in "downtown" Kuna to buy cheap candy. Wax lips were a novelty I indulged in only a few times. They were not so nice to "eat" as other treats, but I still have fun memories of wearing them!
I saw wax lips at Macey's & had to buy some for the kids...childhood is not perfect until you've had your chance to wear wax lips!!! Here's some pictures of the fun the kids had....

Addie was stunning in red!...She looks quite stunned herself!!!

You can almost see Kelli's smile coming out from behind those humongous lips!

Mikey needed Fangs, of course! No self-respecting 8 yr-old would have anything else!

Grandma's loving the kisses....Mikey thinks kisses are gross. (Note, the "thumbs down" in the background)

Grandpa's loving the kisses, too....Mikey still thinks kisses are gross. (...the thumb!...)

Say cheese! (Well, say it to yourself at least... If you say it out loud, you'll loose the lips!)

Anyone else thinking of Larry the Cucumber singing, "Love My Lips"--I've got it running through my head!

Ambree was surprised with kisses.

Kisses for Uncle Drew, too! Anyone getting all kissed out?

Maybe not...I think we finally wore Mikey out. Maybe kisses aren't all that bad!

Well, Maybe they still are. Keep away from girls, Mikey!!!
