Diabetes Walk Pics and More

Thanks for all the support we had for Garrett and the diabetes walk. It was sooooper fun. It was great for Garrett to see that many people deal with what he deals with. I also included a few fun pictures of Alyza, and one of Garrett's big catch last weekend.

Sweet Baby Lou



We cannot seem to stay away from nick names at our house. Alyza's first week home, her name evolved to "Lou" or "Lou Lou." Anyway, just thought you might enjoy seeing what she is like.

The latest "up to's..."



A table runner I sewed, because once in a while I sew something easy to make myself feel good, and feel useful. How do I bind it by hand once I have turned it inside out without making it look crappy? Anyone? Mom?! My poor mother, having to still try to teach me to sew. Here was where I got the idea, I plan to make the pumpkin one too, check out this site: http://www.lovetosew.com/autumnsmallrunner.htm



The bee-ootiful Lake Cleveland, we came here for family night on labor day.



Shay's main concern when we go fishing is what he can throw into the water, or roll in this case. He also does a lot of reeling.



Garrett's main concern is to stay far away from Shay, because Shay scares the fish away. We made no catches--we never do unless we go to a stocked place.



Alyza (A.J.) chillin' at the labor day breakfast we had with Matt's family. Speaking of Matt's family, his sister Katie found out today she is having twins. TWINS!! Did you hear that, TWINSSS!!! I still can't believe it, I'm so excited, and so glad it's her and not me! (I mean that nicely Katie.)

Also, next week we are excited to support Garrett in his participating in the "Walk to find a Cure" for diabetes. I wish someone would find a cure! It would be much easier sending him to school! But one thing I know, when you think something is hard, there is ALWAYS someone who deals with something harder! Anyway, if you want to support him, look back a few posts for the info. on how to donate.
