Dirty rotten scoundrel husband...

Happy 12th, Princess!

Here's to you Miss Maeghan, growing up to be such a beautiful, loving, caring, sweet young woman. Well, we'd better stick to "girl" for now so that Daddy's heart doesn't break. :oD I know you will have a fantastic day as we all spoil you...and then chuck you in the lake later...hehehe. We love you lots and lots.

Mom, Dad, Connor, Cam, Del, Oscar & Bug xoxo

Good morning 12 year old girl!

Birthday hugs from baby brother. Awwwwww...Let's get this present party started!!
Giggling about her Grandparents' cards being exactly the same!
Laughing at Daddy who was distressed about the "unmentionables" Mae received!

SCORE...just what she wanted. Did I mention she is spoiled??
Ooooh, aaaaah, shiny new gadget...

Cottage life, our style!

Just because we're at the "cottage" doesn't mean we are roughing it, by any means! We are completely civilized, dontcha know. ;o) Some fun from our week off...despite the crap weather! :oP

The tattoo continues...

Last Saturday Tim returned to Mike's shop to start adding colour to his tattoo, here's how it's looking so far: (oh, and my bad, the large flower in the tat is a chrysanthemum, NOT a lotus...silly Mommy :o) )

Mike works some colour magic on the koi!
Thought I'd torment Mike with another top-of-head shot...hehe
Looking good!
What a pretty fish!
The colours in the chrysanthemum are gorgeous!

Once this heals up, Timmy will be back for more torture, um, I mean, colour! :oD

R.I.P. Mr. Jackson...

Such a huge loss of a great talent. Thoughts and condolences to his family and friends. A part of my youth gone in a blink, life really is precious.
