I think this photo is so funny. Not really sure why it looks as if everything is spinning and that cute little kitten is just standing there as cute as can be.
We had out MJC Christmas party on Friday night with all our lovely girls and one boy! If you have not heard me say before, I will say it again, I love my girls. They really are so genuine, sweet and just work their tails off. So lucky to have them.

Ha, and here’s David showing off his Rubics Cube tricks!!! Notice Mackenzie? Yes, she is even recording it!! Oh, that boy of mine.
It has been such a great week sending out all the Spread the Love packages. the girls loved helping out and were gonna finish up tomorrow. It is such a great thing to do, both for the receiver and for us at MJC. You know, it jsut feels so good knowing you are making someone smile. It is contagious.

I really need to set aside an hour or two and take some great pics of my 2 sweet ones. It has been a while. That’ll be my goal this week. And I’ll show you ‘em on Sunday. Do you remember the first time you saw them? They were so dang little when I started blogging. I am certaini they did not fight 1/2 as much as they do know. I will even go out on a limb and say 90% as much as they do know. Wow. It is a constant war ground here.
Anyways, how about the first 5 folks who tell me what they (JOE and GABE) were doing when they appeared on the blog first…wins a HOBO bag!!! Yup, that is my prize of choice lately!

Shopping on Amazon!
Gabe was sitting on the floor in a pair of camo pants and an unpredictable top on Feb. 9, 2009 and Joe was standing behind a dress on a stand on Feb. 10, 2009!
I am guessing that you are asking what your boys were doing when they appeared on the blog pic? Or maybe I am confused?!? Either way it looks like they are playing some sort of hand-held football game?!?

Searching for the past blog post…..Gabe sitting in the floor and Joe standing behind a dress……

February 22, 2007 is a family photo of the 4 of you walking down a street by a building. You and your 3 cute boys.
I DO TOO! Really Bad. I have been on here for an hour and a half wanting one.
First time I saw them together was with you and David. You were all in coats walking somewhere. Other than that a very small picture of them together on a sled.
I’m sure there are others because when I found MJ a couple of years ago I sat up all night reading your blog from the beginning and pretty sure it went back more than to Feb 07. Am I right?
ah, the suspense!!! I’ve had a horrible day, and its my birthday…would love to win a Hobo…that make it much better
Sitting on your lap as you typed!
gabe had his paci sooooooooo cute and joe ummmm not exactly sure!
Or could it be this. Cross my fingers that I am not too late.

They were modeling a Lakers jersey and playing with buttons.
The first time along Gabe was sitting in buttons w/his paci and Joe was with David and Sara Brown with their Laker Hockey jerseys on. Feb 19, 2007
Oops…that was Feb 9 and Feb 10 2007! My kids are running around like crazy elves and I typed in 2009 by mistake!
I already posted about Joe on Wed, Jan 13 – just showing off his two new teeth in a pink shirt/MJ tie and the other one in front of a bed with a blue Mighty Acorn tee.
I think the first one of Gabe is “Good Morning My Cuteness” on Saturday, Feb. 20 – he is wearing goggles and holding a shovel and maybe a magnifying glass.

Gabe was sitting on your lap as you typed (and playing in buttons) and Joe had the Lakers jersey on.
I think the 1st picture i saw of them was with Joe laying in the floor watching tv or something, i just recall shoes and in the background there was picture The beast in the background.
I do recall always seeing the family picture of you all w/Goliath in it cuz i loved that dog.
I can tell you that i have watched them grow up, right with mine!
I posted this earlier but got erased. Feb. 2007 gabe with buttons fabric with orange Paci and then next post black and white fam shot you carrying joe
Yay! I never win anything! I’m so excited! Thanks Denise!!
Ya know.. I will tell you one of my picks of all the picture you have ever posted was one of them in the hand painted bed set that someone i know had done herself….. I was so impressed with that picture that i sat and studied the work, then i found more that had some of your work.. Like the high chair i saw you painted.
Wow.. You can do pretty much anything, huh?
I didn’t find out about MJC until 2009, but the first picture I remember was Joe laying on the bed. The firt picture of them together…hmmmm…was the first picture of Gab with buttons? I also remember a family picture with coats on???
Hum Playing!
Gab was playing with buttons and Joe…something to do with hockey. The picture of them together was a family picture?
Joe first in a Laker’s jersey, then you posted on Feb 22, 2007 a photo of the Demarchis’ family all together where Gabe is sporting the cutest Mohawk
