Picture Time!!!!



Well, just to fill everyone in, Katie, Stevie V, and I are doing great at home!!! We have been loving the little one and not making much time for anything else, not even pictures for the family. I figured it was about time to get some good pictures on the site.
Here is a picture of the Grandparents minutes after the baby was born. My dad is wearing dark shades so you cant see his tears....thats where I get it from....Sorry little guy.







A picture of me and the little one outside on the deck enjoying some 90 degree weather....too hot for me but the little guy loves it!!!







I snapped this one of Stevie keeping an eye on Katie while she was taking a nap. I have to say he was quite relaxed too.








I think Daddy loves him too.....his mother dressed him that day!!!
Taking a much needed nap from his hectic daily activities!!!

Casino Night

As promised here are some pics from Mike's party. It was AWESOME!! Everyone had a great time. The table opened at 8:00 and closed at 9:30. The big winner was Debbie's friend Keith who won $69,000 (that's 140 raffle tickets). They did win the Chocolate and Wine basket in the raffle. The other winners were my cousin Lisa (she won the movie & popcorn package), my friends Carly & Charles (they won a gift card to Chilis) and my cousin Eric (he won an AMC movie gift card).

Apparently Mike was very excited!!

Me and my mom made Mike's cake. It was 3 layers of strawberry and chocolate. The cards in the left hand corner of the cake were a 3 and 2 for his 32nd and on the top we wrote "He's an (and we put a ace card down)" I know...cheesy! But apparently the cake tasted great. You can also see the raffle prizes on the table.

The Craps table was very popular.

This is where Keith won all of his winnings! My mom was using 2 balls!! She didn't realize that one was a replacement ball.

Everyone who sat at my dad's table got a cheesy nickname :)

I couldn't have done it without my mom. She helped me with EVERYTHING. Thanks to everyone who came and I hope you had as much fun as we did!

We talked for about 12 minutes and video'ed it.

Here is a video of Maureen talking to her.

A little into the video, we made the screen bigger and you can see her better.

It was GREAT to see you, Lin!.

Stephen White V


Little Five is here!!!!

I love him so much...I think Stevie & Katie might, too!! We were at the hospital ALL DAY today, and as we were leaving, we (me, Brianna & Chelsea) got off the elevator on the first floor. Just as we did, the other elevator closed, and as Brianna looked into it she says, "oh, that was my Aunt Kathy!" So we jumped back in the elevator and went & hugged Aunt Kathy (GREAT AUNT KATHY!) and Great Uncle Cliff!!!!! I love this family!!!!


I love anyone that reads this post. Our family RULES.
