So Long . . .
Farewell . . .
Three days was certainly NOT enough - particularly when those three days were filled to the brim with activity and not much hanging around time. It took an hour to say good-bye as it seemed like the first time the kids got to be together to goof off without having to rush off somewhere. We were all supposed to be getting in our cars, but taking a picture turned into a photo shoot and it took precedence -- I'm glad it did -- they had fun and we got some great pictures to cherish.
All the kids except for the twin babies who managed to finally get buckled and were not going to be let out!

The ABC's of 2001!!
Alyssa, Brooke, Christa - born the same year.
It's a tradition (and a rarity) to have their picture together. They are the ABC's!
