Girls Night

By
A couple of months ago (that's how behind I am in my blogging:), the boys in our family had their annual fathers-and-sons campout. It is such a great event and the boys sincerely look forward to it every year. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures from their fun weekend.

Mae and I, however, have started an annual tradition of our own, coinciding with the testosterone-driven camping trip. No surprise, we took plenty of pictures to share!

Last year during our girls night, I was hastily preparing for YW camp, so poor Mae just got to stay up late with myself and a good friend/camp assistant (love ya, Ruth!), eating pizza, drinking smoothies, and sorta watching a movie while spray painting wiffle balls and attempting to turn a large white sheet into an attractive camp banner;).


This year, now that I'm no longer in charge of girls camp, things were a little more low key. We ventured out to the store for Mae to pick out her very first pillow pet (shown below), and then returned home to watch a movie, paint fingernails, and then watch another movie in bed while falling quickly to sleep ... another late night and oh so fun!!


This little girl is so amazing!


And so much fun to be around.She is just as goofy as she is beautiful, and I LOVE that about her! Are we smiling because of the pillow pet ... or because there are no boys around??:):) Painted toe nails Little feet are the cutest! Thanks, Mae, for being my not-so-little anymore yet always amazing daughter!!

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
