Reese and Quincy

Reese loved that her bigger cousins Jordan and Taylor carried her around everywhere during our visit to California. Taylor is holding her in the air in this picture.

My feeble attempt to get a nice photo of the girls in their matching outfits.

Quincy waits patiently in her carseat while everyone finishes getting ready for church.

Fairy Princess Reese

Quincy loves her big sister!

Reese's Barbie

Caution Barbie Dolls everywhere! This is Barbie less than 24 hours after she was purchased. Barbie has now been outside, in the car, in the bathtub, been fed spaghetti, yogurt, turkey and rice, and one of her detached arms was used as a spoon by Reese to eat applesauce.

Uncle Scott Visit's the Zoo.

These goats work nights down at the Gilroy Police Dept as drug and bomb sniffers 'cuz the german shepheards "just weren't cutting it".



Come on now...Happy Hollow is a family place...that goes for you too, Melinda




Yes, Reese...we feel the same way.

another color job for grandma lynn

One would think that after what happened last time she would quit posing for photos. Sorry mom, but I am completely blameless this time.

A day in the life of Quincy Brooklyn

Quincy woke up, had some breakfast, enjoyed some tummy time, spit up her breakfast all over mom's dry-clean-only sweater, ate some more, and changed into a clean outfit.


Then she spit up all over that outfit before her mom could even get a picture.

...then she made a poop.

Which wore her out and made her sleepy.

So she took a nap.

...This is to make up for the previous post.

Reese sure does miss you!

...and Quincy really misses you too.

...by the way, the furry hand on the right belongs to Grandpa Hal.
