I haven't been on this board for long, but I love seeing the pictures! I like being able to put a face with a name!!

Sarah

I LOVE IT!! Well....as long as I'm tall and thin....could you make me a blond too?!?

Mary...5'3" here too!! I need to know...how did you lose the 32#'s? I've done WW for years, but my last 20+ won't budge....

Shera has already seen me so I shouldn't wreck her fantasy, although I wonder what it was....but I'll play.... Hopefully they're not too small or too big....first time for everything.

Ann! I LOVED your pictures. What a beautiful family and how nice it is to put a face w/ a name.

Ann, you have a beautiful family...even the dog.

Your dd is precious.

I don't think I should post one of me....I like Sarah's fantasy world better.

Ever notice when you read you give them all voices.. but they are just your own voice reflected in their words. I got on Team speak (another way to talk over the web like a board, but with a microphone) useful if you are playing like ticket to ride online with your 4 friends in 4 different states.

it really weird hearing someone's voice you have only typed to b4.

Don't worry I'm short a bit on the dumpy side and I haven't changed my hair in 8 years. (hubby likes it long) *shrugs shoulders*

I guess if you'd double my 3 boys I'd be up to Darci's 6! What a handsome family, Darci! And I truly appreciate the fact that you were able to match all of those boys' clothes - I know that is an incredible thing to accomplish - even with my 3 boys!

Annaz - what a beautiful picture! It makes me long for Christmas again!

O.k. I'm new at this photo thing, but Mary's been coaching me! I'm attempting our Christmas picture from this past year (mainly because it is the only picture I'm in, since I am the official picture taker of the family usually)!

GASP! Julie, what a beautiful family, a beautiful picture! However, your heart is even MORE stunning! Your love for the Lord and others shines in every single one of your posts!

Hey Mary-I'm also 5'3"

Congratulations on the weight loss...I, on the other hand, have GAINED 30 pounds since I moved here 4 years ago

I think it's because back in NY I used to walk everywhere, and over here, there's no place to walk-gotta use the car

Everyone has such lovely families!

Everyone looks just lovely. You all have such wonderful families.

Sarah

Thanks, Gina! And Mary, you are always such an encouragement to me - thanks for your kind words!!!

This is so fun to get to "see" you all here now!

Oh your family is just beautiful and you DO meet Sarah's fantasy world qualifications!! Thin, blond and very pretty.

I love being able to put faces with the post when I'm reading them.

You ladies are all so pretty, I don't want you to see me!!

I can't wait for Thursday to actually "see" what everyone learned this week!

I love the photos ladies! Thanks for sharing.

It's so neat to be able to put a face with the names and the posts on the board. It looks like we are a very eclectic bunch, praise the Lord!

And... It would seem that the HOD family unites us, but also allows us to celebrate our differences too!

Blessings,
Carrie

Thank you- you have made my day! I actually gained 50 pounds this last pregnancy - I'd like to say just due to eternal bedrest, but alas, it was also a great love of nachos and shrimp chow mein! Anyway, I've lost 42 of those pounds, but I cannot seem to lose the rest. I'm really not thin - a sitting pose is wonderful about hiding things, isn't it?

And, I must admit I hi-light my hair too! Used to be natural, but not anymore! However, I am taking your compliment and running with it today - I can go on those happy words a long time!

On Cloud 9,
Julie

P.S. You have to put a picture up of you and your family - you're already lovely in my mind! A beautiful spirit is really the most breathtaking "look" anyone can have - and you have it m'dear!
