Through Someone Else's Eyes

We had the wonderful priveledge of have a dear friend join us for a few days during her college break!  Miss Sadie Olsen, aka Big Sadie - as we have Sadie Baby here.

Yet while Sadie was here, she was always snapping pictures because she thought things were so ________ funny.  I guess we do have a few quirks.  :)

The first "selfy" picture - yep, I learned a new word!

Big Sadie thought it so funny that we brush our teeth together, let alone Joseph wearing a poncho.

Joseph needed a quick hem-job done so we used duct tape.  duh.  Funny to note:  Big Sadie came for the same request right before leaving to church as her skirt was coming unhemmed in one place.  

Sadie curled Avannie's hair perfectly.  Avy felt like she was the queen of the day.

Countless number of books were read.

Wheel barrow ride?

We didn't believe Joseph was 5'9".  So we measured.  Yep, he is.  Unfortunately, I always thought I was 5'5".  I'm only 5'4.5".

After Sunday dinner with the Hanns.

Big Sadie was appalled that we would eat homemade raspberry jam with peanut butter.  How else would you eat it?

Because of a professional photographer-in-training at our home, we had Sadie take our family picture for this year's Christmas card.  Stay tuned.

The two Sadie girls.

This is part of Joseph's nightly ritual with Sadie Baby.

One night we got talking about how our mother's would discipline us as children.  So this is me, trying to be like my mom.

Thanks for the visit Sadie!  And for all the laughs!
