Remember what they used to look like.....


Here is a personal favorite of mine that I created with pictures of various farms. Some are crops from Jason's fields, the others I had to snap out at the Steven's farm in Drew County since Jason doesn't grow rice or sorghum. Anyway, this is how I like to remember these particular crops BEFORE all the yucky rain. How pretty and green or golden and ready to harvest they lookED...But after almost 8 inches of rain just in Monticello I shudder to think what the result will be when it finally stops. And by the way, thanks to all this weather and storming rain and wind, the kids are out of school again today.....at home.....here with me....plus a niece. I took off to stay home with them (and get to sleep sorta late!) Yeah, thanks Jason and Brandon for calling me this morning....Jason--at the crack of dawn, and Brandon--just after 8am......AAAHHH!!!!

Yeah...that's what they USED to look like...afraid they don't look anything like that now!

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
