Three Widmer Babes


Geneva, Ruth, Winnie ~ It looks like the same little dress on each one. Can't tell if the necklines are a little different, but the sleeves match. With four little girls, I'm sure there were lots of hand-me-downs.

Rachel's and Kristin's Birthday

Opening presents

The Gang

Having a great time!

Rachel's cake

Hair is all done!



My beautiful girls!

Kristin's cake

They had their birthday party on Saturday with their friends. It was a "spa" theme, and all the girls got their hair, nails and make-up done. There was a Barbie movie showing, a CD of the girl's favorite songs playing, and a craft to make souvenir frames. We had pizza and cake -- cupcakes for Rachel and a special sugar-free jello cake for Kristin (since she's on her special diet for her epilepsy.) Thanks to Gammy for finding the perfect cake molds! It came out beautifully! They had a blast and all the girls looked great!

Cuddlin' Cousins



I got to watch Abby and Nathan while Jenny had a get-together for work. Janie LOVED the attention they showered on her. After snow cones they were cold, so they shared a blanket while they watched a movie, and Janie didn't want to be left out. She had her own blanket, but she felt included, and couldn't wipe the grin off of her face. It was even cuter in person! - Laura

Sunset at the Park


I think everyone was outside snapping pics of the sunset tonight. At one point the reflection off the clouds made the whole outside look gold, or pink, or greenish - depending on where you were. I know Kevin and Ashley took some from their viewpoint too. Maybe they'll post one or two also. Enjoy!

A Texas Sunset









In our part of Texas, the most natural beauty we can boast is in the sky - and WHAT A SKY!

Cutie Pie Janie


Playing peek-a-boo gets a grin.
Look! It's a birdie!
Almost ready to take some steps.

Hawks!

There were four hawks at our office last week-nesting in the trees above and feasting on the abundance of squirrels and birds. One captured a mockingbird (you can see bird feathers all over the ground) and another hawk tried to take it away... they were grabbing it back and forth. They are really beautiful creatures.
