Punky-Gerto, as she's fondly nick-named (don't ask! haha),
with the baby-doll she got from Curt & I for Christmas! Adorable sweetie-pie with those little pig-tails I put in her hair! :) :) :)
Ok, so I forgot how much it can snow in New Jersey!!! So this is the mid-western born & bred girl that I am, speaking right now, but I have to say... I miss it! (Not the shoveling & driving part, just the fun of it all and the vast beauty of God's creation of snow!!!) This was a crazy blizzard that came just a few days before we were supposed to leave to drive back to KY!
So this is an almost completely buried car! I pity the owner - the plows just kept pushing the snow on that side again & again, no matter how much the neighbors on that side of the street shoveled! Poor guys!
Ok, so this is the totally buried car, minus that side-view mirror! (And no help, except on the side from snow-plows)!!! Crazy, crazy, crazy blizzard!
Ethan could barely walk in it!!!
But there he was, determined to help with his shovel, along with the rest of the guys!
Curt & Peter shoveling out Mom Crick's van.
Mandy & Adrielle - aren't they just so stinkin' cute?!!
Awww, just look at that smile - caught this moment candid as Adrielle played with her Uncle Dan.
"Ok, you're turn!" Adrielle let's Uncle Dan take a turn on her cell phone conversation. :) Adrielle LOVES talking on the phone!!! She's been known to take the phone from Momma Mandy or Auntie Lyd and blabber away - she always has so much to say!!!
Mandy & Pete eating at Chili's with us! Delicious!
I liked this pic of Mandy & Pete inside the glowing chili pepper! It's actually not a neon sign chili pepper, it's a painted red chili's napkin holder that lit up with the setting I used on the camera!!
Uncle Curt, Auntie Jo, and Adrielle at Chili's!!
Our gorgeous sister Mandy & lil bro Ethan!
Bottle-time with Auntie Jo before nap-time - soooo sleepy!
AW! I think the lil punkin just woke up here! At least she still seems pretty happy
to be with one of her babysitters - Auntie Jo!
Andy, Trish, Olive, and Eden Gruswitz - awesome friends of my family, and great musicians! They even have their own music teaching business in NJ, and you can find it at http://www.olivetreemusicstudio.com/!!
We had such a fun jam session that night,
complete with Andy's guitar, Trish's violin, Pete's clarinet, and our voices! So much fun!
I miss being able to hang out with these people terribly!
But they're truly awesome friends!!
Ethan & Olive - they had so much fun together!
Mom Crick with Ethan & Adrielle - can you feel all the love?!
I think we were actually playing Boggle in this picture! (Mandy was just using the Taboo box to have something to write on). Apparently it went something like this:
Mandy: Bwahahahahahahaha!
Curtis: Hahahaha - Gotcha sister!
Pete: I'm not sure what to think about this.
Adrielle: I'm leaving!
Ethan: What is going on here?!
Curt & Adrielle together... this was our last night in NJ,
and Adrielle was obviously very sad to have to say goodbye! ;)
