Mark painted the dining room and put in wood floors too! Yippee, it looks so amazing I hardly recognize the place.  Looks much bigger and flows better with the rest of the house.  Thanks to our friend Darlene Roth (the wonderful interior designer) for some expert advice.

I hate it when I give Mark something to make fun of me for.  Yes I put toothpaste on my face to take off my makeup with.  I decided you only live once so you might as well do it dangerous. Duh!

BlueBonnet pictures, REALLY?





We went to take pictures in the bluebonnets and it was a typical picture taking day with the O'Briens.  The kids really HATE the weeds.  I thought these pics were especially cute and true to form.  Gotta Love the Grandbabies!

Our Christmas Aprons

My Mom gave us matching aprons for Christmas complete with a "hammer" holder.  LOL.  Mark thought that the towel holder was for his hammer, I thought that was hilarious!  We love our aprons, thanks Mom.

Hot Grammy Gets a Ride!

I have been wanting a ride on a motorcycle for a long time now.  I really love  riding and haven't done it in years. Thanks Rob!  Anna was very distressed that her Grammy was on that evil thing, she screamed her guts out, I could hear her over the bike as we drove away.  It is so nice to be loved so much.  Thanks Anna

Good Friends


We went to Chicago for my sister Cindy's wedding. We were able to stay with our good friends Mike and Veda. Fun to catch up on old times and make new ones :)

Maggie the Aggie



This is David and Valeries new pug Maggie the Aggie. She was born with out a tail, so we are certain she is part Schnauzer. What she lacks in tail she makes up for in personality. I love this little dog she is adorable.

Delaney joined the O'Brien Family on March 9, 2011 at 12:57 pm. She weighed in at a stout 7lbs6oz and was just 19 & 3/4 inches long. She is Emily and Aaron's second baby, and our fourth grandchild. As you can see she is a beautiful addition to our family, and we love her so much. Gotta love those grandbabies:)

Celestial Clouds





My 17 year old nephew Dallas recently passed away. On my way to Chicago for the funeral I looked out the window of the airplane and this is what I saw. In that moment I knew there was a Heavenly Father who knows and loves each one of us. He most certainly knows Dallas and has him in his safe keeping. Until we meet again Dallas, RIP. Aunt Sherri
