My Favorite Time of Year





Cotton harvest is my favorite time of year. Don't ask me why...it just is. It's in my blood. My grandfathers on both sides and my dad are/were cotton farmers. I love being out in the middle of all the cotton picking and harvesting and module building and everything. I love to see all the fields of white and feel the cooler air in the fall and smell the picked cotton. Yes.....it has a smell. Some must think I'm crazy. I got to take these photos of Jason's dad David Aka Pop-Pop picking their first field of cotton this afternoon. Caitlin rode the picker with Pop-Pop while Jason, Spencer and I watched on the turn row.

My son

My son
Spencer Cole Tice is 16 fixing to turn 17 on Nov. 5th. He's finally took a growth spurt and is a little taller than me now. He has been like the son my dad never had and helps out at the farm and with his cows, which dad treats like his pets or kids! HAHA

My daughter

My daughter
Caitlin Ashley Dupwe is 7 and will turn 8 on Nov. 1st. She's a 2nd grader this year. Jason and I call her "Killdee" because she's got the skinniest legs and runs so fast! She has dark curly hair, which came from my Dad's sister and daughter I guess. They are the only ones in the family with hair like that!

Across The River

Across The River
Jason K and I :) Here is the love of my life now. And he lives "across the river" in Indianola. I found him, well he actually found me, 9 months ago and it's been sweet bliss since. I know he looks unhappy in this photo. We were at his mother's and she was directing us on where to pose....need I say more?? Anyway, I love this man with all my heart.

The Parents

The Parents
Honcho and Philly in their natural form! What else can I say that this photo doesn't say?? I have the craziest and funniest dad on earth. And Moma fusses and puts up with his crazy antics. But they have been the best parents a daughter could have. Oh man, will this be me and Jason 20 years from now??? LOL

Niece

Niece
Brooklynn Nicole Santucci is 8 and will turn 9 on Nov. 13th. All 3 of my parents grandchildren were born in November!! When she was smaller, I had her with me so much that folks thought she was my kid instead of Caitlin!! She's in 3rd grade this year.

Sisters

Sisters
Angela and Amanda-the TWINS....almost 8 years my juniors. It has taken a lot of years of growing up so that we can be more "sisterly". I don't have enough space here to write all about them girls!!

Bro In Law

Bro In Law
Jared Pieroni and Angela on their Wedding Day October 20, 2007. What a wedding!! I never had a brother growing up, so having Jared in the fam is a new experience! Although I think I work with Jared more than I actually get to be a sister-in-law to him! HA
