A Very Barker Reunion

Before the reunion, Ruby and I had a little fun

taking some pictures at Mamaw's house.

She is always good for a pose or two.

Cousins. This may become a tradition for Krista

and I. Here are our two little girls who are just a

few weeks apart. Every time we get together,

we take a picture of the two beauties.

I really need a wide angle lens for this huge family!

Here are most of the "little" cousins.

Here is an awkward shot of the Barkers with their

spouses.

Here are the Barkers. What a family!

For a funny story about Ivan and Elwood,

check out this article that was in yahoo news

6 months ago. They got a big kick out of it and then

yelled at their sisters for giving them those names.

Steve and Elwood corralling the kids

for a north vs. south water fight.

This is one of my favorite pictures.

Noah and this other little fellow were just

mesmerized by all these little water balloons.

Noah kept picking them up and dropping

them back in the tub for a fun bounce.

Both boys just giggled all the while.

My Ethan resting on a rock. This water was ice cold

coming out of the caves. Brrrrr. I do not know how

these kids walked around in it.

My little Ruby perched on a rock for a quick pose.

Noah lived in this corner of the creek.

Sisters filling up their water guns.

Kaya testing the water.

Xander locked and loaded.

Larry having a bit of fun.

Brysha's little boy Jacob. He is absolutely

adorable. And that is Allyston sitting

with him. I should have had her turn around. She is

absolutely beautiful.

My 2 bozos walking along a trail just above the creek.

It is so hard to take a good picture of your kids

when Elwood is standing behind you commenting

how everything is a "Barker" trait.

I just thought this picture was fun.

I didn't ask them to make funny faces,

that is all them.

I am so glad we got to attend this years Barker's

reunion. We sure miss the family

get togethers and no one has a

party like the Barkers.

Apple Festival

OK, I was too excited to wait on this new post. We went to the Hendersonville Apple Festival this afternoon. We have lived here 2 years and this was our first time going. It was fun. People had their crafts for sale and of course, lots of apples. Anyways, center stage, a band was performing old rock n roll music. We stopped to take a break and enjoy ice cream. While sitting there, a square dancer asked Larry Denzil to be her partner in the square dancing routine. Talk about a laugh, I hope you guys enjoy the pictures. Did I forget to mention that the Hurts were in for a visit? Ok, here is Larry Denzil having a great time square dancing. I think he has found his true calling. Here is little Larry relaxing during the bands gig. Here is Larry Denzil and the little old lady who asked him to be her partner. Poor thing, I do not think she read the back of his shirt. He had the number 7 and at the top it said Baby Maker. This was his work soft ball shirt. He is actually enjoying...

What on Earth!? How can you not stop and smile?

This morning I woke up and felt really good and energized. I was just ready to start the day. I had a little fun on the wii fit at 5:30Am before waking the kids. A Valentine's gift from a dear husband. I love video games and well, you might as well exercise while playing. Afterwards, I started with my chores. Just trying to tackle one room at a time. The first room I cleaned was the children's living room. Why did I choose this room? I knew Ethan & Ruby would play and watch TV, but I had no idea they would do this!? Here is a darling Ruby Isabella exhausted and asleep after her mayhem and destruction. Yes, that is toilet paper all over the floor. An entire roll they managed to toss all over the living room. They also got a hold of the baby bath and made some bubbles in the boys bedroom, and got a hold of the lotion and squirted it all over the footboard on my bed. Where am I during all this? Feeling really good because I had washed, dried, and folded 4 loads of la...
