Chuck E. Cheese

"Chuck E. Cheese....where a kid can be a kid...."

I don't think you can truly own being a parent until you have spent a few hours at Chuck E. Cheese! HA! Keely and Laney had a great day today at Chuck E. Cheese with some of their favorite friends. They played and danced and ate! Keely actually got to attend 2 back-to-back birthday parties, which was fun for her since she missed the past 2 weeks of school with walking pneumonia! Some of Ashley and JL's favorite friends were there too...but it was hard to find them amongst the +/-200 screaming kiddos! Good times...good times! Happy Birthday Graham and Austin!

Keely's New Haircut!!

These pictures do not capture the blue and gold glitter that they put in her hair (that does not wash out AT ALL!!!!) Keely keeps asking me how to get her long hair back....uh-oh!

Christmas in Mooresville 2008

Here are a few pictures of our Christmas visit to GramB and PopPop's house in Mooresville. Keely and Laney got to see Great Grandmama Parker and play with their cousins, Jeyaraj and Prakash.

Here is a picture of 4 generations of Parkers...
