The family:

One day while listening to the kids being silly, my dad made the comment “You know you’re raisin’ nuts, don’t you?”

This has always stuck in my brain as a pretty good example of our life.. raisin’ nuts. Our kids are each so unique and funny.

Josh is quick-witted like his dad. Sarah Jane can laugh at herself and find humor in most things. Emily has to be crazy to be here. MacKenzie... well, she needs her own TV show. Jack has a dry sense of humor but is slowing learning that sarcasm (the rule at our house) isn’t serious! Annabelle is the John Ritter of our house - crazy poses, crazy faces. Emma Grace never misses a beat just like her daddy. Will Pin-Ching has been here since the end of July and he fits right in -- he screams like a girl (like Jack), is scared of bugs and frogs (like Jack), loves the computer and YouTube (like Sarah Jane) and is as sweet as can be (like Annabelle!)
