80!

A couple weeks ago the kids and I headed over an hour south of here for a surprise birthday party for my Grandpa Z. Eighty! I only pray I look this good when I'm 80. :) Happy belated birthday Grandpa!

A lot of the adults did some gambling, but the kids had a great time in the pool. They were all asleep for the entire ride home. Quiet! :)

almost all the great-grandchildren

again, we outnumbered  :)

Nash didn't want to take the photo(s).

I think Austyn is bracing his head here... or something...

daily Smith fashion

This may be the lamest daily Smith fashion in history but seriously, how cute is this child. I mostly love her pony in this (very short) series ;)

Shirt: ruched-shoulder tee from Old Navy (not the exact as this one was passed down from Lia... &Austyn)

I have a suitcase similar to this that I purchased at an estate sale last summer across the road from our house. I think I paid $5 for mine, but I would take this one as well.

dressing myself

Giving Polyvore a go... I'm not much of a fashionista. Realistically, not anything at all for fashion. I do like to dress nice, but my budget and lack of fashion knowledge usually shut me down during any shopping outings and days when I'm attempting to dress myself. Here is my first attempt at putting something together... eeek :)
