Here are the captions to these pictures:

1.  Andrew and Samantha.  Love this pic!  Last night we went to Chili's to eat supper with our family.  Not only for Fiona and Samantha's birthday's (Sam's is the 28th) but Chili's supports St. Jude's.  September is Childhood Cancer awareness month, and all the proceeds from Chili's yesterday will go to St. Jude's cancer research.  What a privilege for us to go there and support childhood cancer research.  Prayerfully they can find a cure for this devastating killer.  We happily remember our sweet Shaelynn Sue.  What a picture of her wonderful parents.  Her parent who still love each other sooo much!  Her parents who did not let cancer split them apart!  Praise the Lord!  

2.  Sweet Ruby May and her sweet Grandma Julie.  So, Ruby was accidently left out of the last post.  Sorry sweet Ruby!  Ruby has had a big month too!  She is a MWF preschooler.  Big deal, I know!  She is sweet as can be.  He little voice is hilarious.  She has some major loves, her Daddy, her puppy, and her pink packpack.  She now fits into a pair of Ruby Red shoes I found at the Stuff store.  YAY!  She looks really cute in them.  I like this pic of her and Mom.  It's cute!

Dumb blogger will not let me caption the pics from the previous post.  So I will give you the skinny on them.  

First pic:  My beautiful sister Joy and the birthday girl Fiona.  Her birthday was yesterday the 29th of September.  (more on that later)

2.  My Fiona Kelly.  6 years old!

3.  Jonah is a tackling machine!  His first year of football has been fun.  He is in 5th grade, and is by far the shortest defensive lineman that the league has seen.  Good thing that they all underestimate him.  He has put many of them on their back side's several times!  Jonah proves to be a serious competitor.  I will say, this is a mixture of the stubborn german of Ben's family, mixed with the serious competitive nature of the Kelly's.  Note that Ben was a really good soccer player, and that in my more slender years I made a pretty good athlete.  Plus you have the football talent of my Dad and brothers.  Enough of this bragging!

4.  My most beautiful 8 year old!  Lydia Grace has lost all 4 of her top front teeth!  Her freckles continue to attract much attention from strangers. (yipes!)

5.  Here is Lillian Ivy.  My Lily.  She gets her sense of style from her Daddy.  (sorry honey! must blame someone, and you put her "wimsuit" on her that day)

6.  She gets her beautiful sleep style from her Momma!

7.  The lotsa cousins.  Can they be more beautiful?  Fiona holding new babe Amelia, Simon, Adeline, Lillian, Samuel, and Audrey.  This is only 7 of the 17 cousins on Ben's side of the family. Can you say over-achievers?  Just kidding.

8.  Audrey Louise giving love to her new sister Amelia.

9.  Adeline Jane being a big sister to sweet Amelia.
