Uncle Lawton Comes to Town


Lawton: "What are you doing tonight Sis?"
Carrie: "Oh, I don't know, just probably hang out and catch up on some T.V."
Lawton: "Well, do you want to pick me up at the Airport at 10:00 tonight instead?"
Carrie: Silence
Lawton: "Sis, are you there"
Carrie: "Well, that depends on if you are actually going to be at the airport tonight at 10:00. Are you serious?"
Lawton: Is your natural hair color something other than brunette?-Yes I'm going to be there. Can you come get me?"
Carrie: Screams of happiness and joy. "Yes! I am so excited!!! See you at 10:00-Rock on!"

This is how Lawton's surprise visit to VA started out sounding-it pretty much continued in that format until he left! The kids and I had such a good time hanging out with Uncle Lawton (even if it was only for a day and 1/2).

Here's to spontaneous family visits!

Almost 9 years and 3 kids later and we're still smiling!

Isn't love great? Sometimes, at the end of the day, we just sit together and think,"We can't believe we have three kids!" Thank goodness for date nights!

Hills in the News

Well, so far the Hill Family has been keeping up with all of our friends and family through occasional phone calls-but no more! We hope that we can share updates about what is going on in our family regularly, with everyone who knows us through this blog! We hope all of you are doing well and we can't wait to hear from you too.
Since Mama Hill has a bad habit of carrying on long thoughts and conversations, you all may be very thankful for the e-version of communication, so feel free to keep us posted about what's happening in your end of the world (without me talking over you)!
Here's how the Hills roll:
Nana just finished Kindergarten, is reading up a storm and completed her first season ever of soccer!
Mr.Man has discovered how cool Jedi Knights and their blue and red light sabers are!
Little Bubbers has discovered how to defend himself, from his older brothers new interest in hitting him with the cool Jedi Knight light sabers!
Jeff is just working up a storm, occasionally fits in some golf and is constantly trying to figure out a way he can be a millionaire overnight, I am busy working with Moby Wrap, Inc. and recently had an article published at the following address: http://www.modernbabiesandchildren.com/maryland/info/our-stories/all-wrapped-up.htm
Aside from being able to add a little to the family income, I spend most of my days finding ways we can kick the soccer ball, play Star Wars, read books, eat, protect Little Bubbers and become millionaires-all at the same time!
We have had a wonderful couple of years here in our Nations Capitol and just to give you an idea of how much fun we've had in the House of Hill-here are are a couple of pictures we've taken over the last few months.
Until the next update- we hope you have a great time with your own family this summer and we can't wait to see your pictures and read your news too!
All the best-Carrie
