Cora's Hairstyles

Shark Fan

This stuffed shark is by far Cora's favorite toy. She got it from a fish pond at Ray's work party. She drags it all over the house with her. She gets very excited when she finds it. And she gets far more upset when Ruby steals her shark than any other toy. When I told my mom about Cora's shark she said, "Derek should be happy, there's another shark fan in the family."

Ray's Birthday


This was a very hard card to make. The girls weren't very cooperative when it came to tracing their hands.

Ray's dam cake.
In the picture on the right you can see that there are fish swimming IN the lake, not just on top.









We had a few friends over for dinner.

Ray

"25" pictures to show why I love you.

You shaved.

You work hard.





















Family is important to you.





















You're such a wonderful dad. Remember how tiny the girls used to be?







































You like to have fun.


















You play along.












You're willing to help. Even if you do put the girls' clothes on backwards. I know, why would anyone put buttons in the back?












You're resourceful.









You get better looking every day. ;-)












I love you!!
