Football stars

10-28-09
Both Kyle and Alec played football for their high school this year. The Land O Lakes Gators! Alec was OG and Kyle was Def. Back. I can't express how proud I am of them. They worked so hard everyday at practice and managed to keep their grades good.
Because I got so far behind in blogging, the football season is now over. Their JV team went 5-3. These pics were taken after their first win.

Race for Fetal Hope

October 24, 2009
It's been over 4 years since Dr. Quintero did the surgery that saved Brooke and Brianna's lives. Fetal Hope Foundation had a 5k walk/run race and reunion to raise money to help raise awareness for TTTS. Jim and I participated in the walk/run with Brooke and Brianna. I ran, Jim and the girls walked:) It was so great to see the man that saved our daughters lives and to meet so many other families and children he has helped. Brooke asked Dr. Q when she saw him "are you going to save me again':)

This was the kids little race before the 5K.

Kyle and Alec's homecoming

Catch up...

Ok, so I have really slacked on the blog the past 4 months so here is a brief update on what we've been up to with a few pictures to go with it.....


This summer...In June-
We went to see our wonderful family in Philidelphia/NJ..and had a blast! Brooke and Brianna got to see where their daddy grew up. We stayed at Joe and Pam's in Brigantine, went to 'The Shore', Ocean City and Margate. Can't wait to go again!

Pretzels on the boardwalk:)

We went to the Cabin with the Freeds and Nana and Papa for the 4th of July.

School started!

Brooke and Brianna started pre-school. Their friends Calvin, Alice and Ella go to the same school! and I'll add they all LOVE it.

AND..

I turned 40!! went out with the girls for a night and came home to a surprise birthday party!:)

We went on a cruise to Cozumel with The Freeds...no kids!! GREAT TIMES!

Ok..now I'll start working on the most recent stuff:)

Sharlene's High School graduation

6/3/09
When Sharlene went to Kindergarten for the first time I cried for a week. She was so tiny I couldn't believe she was actually going to school! I still wanted to protect and watch over her and I had to let her go and couldn't be there to hold her hand and protect her. I could only hope that she would be ok. I felt the same way with her graduating. How can my little baby be going out into this big world?

For some strange reason Shar's high school had her graduation outside! YES, in JUNE! Here in FLORIDA! It was HOT! I don't know how the graduates sat there and endured the heat! I am very thankful for my family and friends that came to support Shar despite the heat with the kids! Kristine, Kerri, Alycia! Thanks so much! I know you all were dying and the kids were so good putting up with being bored and HOT.
