The Parish Family

Liza LOVES standing at doors to look outside. She does it at our home all the time. This picture is from playgroup one week at Katie's house. She and Garner are looking for Saint (the Hinson's dog). (Which by the way....our sweet friend, Garner didn't have the best week either....he went through the same stuff as Liza....see next posting....only he had to have his cath and blood done several times because they just had a hard time getting it all!!! Poor thing....and I can only imagine that a catheter is much worse on a little boy!....and I guess I should also mention another one of our sweet playgroup friends, Camden, went through the same thing, too! We would blame it on being around one another....but none of us had actually seen each other for 3 weeks!)



There's Saint! Now where is Garner???


One day, while Liza was standing at our door, Lee was outside doing yard work. She could see him and so she just stood there and watched him for several minutes. When he came up on the patio to blow it off....he didn't see her watching him....and certainly couldn't hear her....but what I saw was just so precious! She started ferociously banging on the door and yelling, "DA.......DA.......DA!" She loves her daddy.


Speaking of loving Daddy.....

I love the concentration in this pic....we were at a Japanese steak house sitting at the hibachi grill....(PapPaw, don't you wish you were with us?.....haha)

One last thing....CONGRATULATIONS to Reed and Caroline Hogan on the birth of their sweet little girl, Raney Bess Hogan. Caroline is one of my best friends from college.....this is their 3rd precious girl......see the link to the right: hogancrew.com to look at pictures of their precious family and new arrival.
