Here's the tour that Mom requested of Janet's new kitchen:

“ These are a few of his favorite things” Happy Birthday, Doug!

 

Photo Sharing Site

I've decided to try out a new photo sharing site, since the one we used in the past is no longer in existence.

I couldn't find a way to do sub-folders, which is something I dislike. I have all our September photos loaded on, in different folders. Let me know if you'd prefer to have them all lumped together in one folder for the month in the future.

Anyway, here's the link:

http://russanneburnettfamily.shutterfly.com/

Just click on the "Pictures & Videos" tab under the heading and you'll be able to see all the albums I've added so far.

(P.S. This post is mostly for Mom, since I don't think anyone else really follows all of the photos we take.)

Pass Times

I used to know how to edit videos and now I don't. This means that for our lovely viewers you get the entire video which is too long to hold excited attention instead of a shorter version.

These are some of Elise's favorite pass-times. She loves spinning and singing in her supersaucer. She also loves...

growling. She is our little animal, who is starting to imitate a lot! Very fun.

Happy Birthday, Russ!

I thought I would post some pictures from the past that were taken at about the same ages as the girls are now. Who looks the most like Russ?

This one was taken in Hoffman Estates, IL when Russ was a year and 10 months old. See any of Brenna is this face?!

 

This  was taken on Russ’ 4th birthday. See any Ashlyn there?

 

 

 

And this was taken just after Russ’ 6th birthday. What do you think? 

Happy Birthday Emily!

We love you Emily! Thanks for the yummy lunch yesterday and for taking us swimming. Can't wait to see you again. Have a wonderful birthday!
Love,
Nikki, Bekah, and JJ

WE MISS YOU!

It was wonderful to have time with my sister.

We took Grandma and Grandpa to the airport this morning. Fortunately, they are not headed into Hurricane Irene's path! We had a great time with them and miss them already. Hope you had a good flight home, Mom and Dad. Here are some memories of our time together...

Aunt Janet entertaining Elise with one of our garage sale finds... "This little piggy..."

Our centerpiece of fun and entertainment!

Our tradional stop 1/2 to the coast. Yeah for Dairy Queen!

Their second night in Oregon was spent in downtown Portland to see Les Miserables. A long but memorable night!

We had just one night at the coast and were treated to a beautiful sunset and were reminded how beautiful are all of God's creations!

The traditional picture of Grandpa in his recliner... this time with the next generation!

Janet, Grandma, and Susan enjoyed our first visit to Canby's theatre to see The Help. Fun times!

A fun day at the Taggart's picking blueberries and playing with Elise
