We're all in...!!!

Everyone is accounted for with rooms for MSG '07 ~ I can't wait! If I weren't so busy trying to get my house sold, I'd post a counter on our blog!!

They are so 2...

Briley & Caitlin are SO two -- on the one hand, I'm so glad they are normal. On the other, how the hell are we going to survive them in 10 years, Maggie???!?!?!!!?!?!

Fifty years of wedded bliss:

Hadley: Where are we going?

Me: To Norris & Carolyn's anniversary party

Hadley: Why are they having a party?

Me: Because they've been married 50 years!

Hadley: 50 years!?!?! Oh my gosh -- how old are they? 55??!??!

I'm dreaming of a McKelvey Christmas!

December 23 will be Christmas at Billy & Lynette's new home. They will send out directions, instructions, times, bringings, etc... later!!

Name That Baby... or is it babies??

Do you recognize this baby...?

John says it's Hannah -- and if it's not Hannah, then it's Faith. Personally, it could be Billy as far as I can tell. {Did Billy ever have earrings????}

At any rate - sure is a cute baby!!

50's ---

Ah the magical time when people return to their roots -- or at least their high school reunions!

It seems we have two members who will be attending their 50th high school reunion later this month: Carolyn (in Texas) and Mom (in Tulsa). Be sure to take pictures and get them to me -- we'll blog them!

ALSO, the BIG 5-0 will be taking place in October with the celebration in Stillwater ~ see ya there!

First Day of School -- Or first of anything...

Post those first day of school pics! If you don't know how to post the pic (or don't want to learn), email your pics to me or Maggie and we'll get them posted ... We wanna see some pics of our school-ees!! OR if you have a new house -- send us pics! OR a new girlfriend -- send us pics! OR a new anything ~ we're game for any pics!!

Fin & Feather --

We will have our next summer get-together at the Fin & Feather Resort next June. I'm still working with the resort, but should have a firm date (either the first or second weekend in June to accomodate the hot-flashing sisters and sisters-in-law). I'll let you know when you can start making your reservations. If you want to check our the resort, go to Fin and Feather. They have lots of BIG cabins as well -- you can share one with a family if you'd like! I'll send out an update for next month. Hopefully by Labor Day, we'll have everything worked out!!

Newsletters went out!

You should receive the follow up newsletter in the mail this week!!! Be on the lookout!

You just THINK you've seen the last of the pics!!

Brendan & Jim - showing off!! :)
A plethera of grandkids in the lake...
Cory! Thank GOD we got a picture of Cory - I'm not sure we have many more -- maybe just 20 or so more shots!! (And, why is Whitney wearing a white body suit under her swim suit??!?!?!)
The HJs ... It could be the HJs and an FN for all we really know -- I can't read the bracelet in this shot!!! :)
Larry took advantange of the spa treatment...

If anyone wants a copy of the group pic, let me know!!
If anyone wants a picture of cousin Beth, let me know -- I'm disappointed we weren't able to get a picture of cousin NOT-Courtney...

The classier side of MSG

Look! It's Cory!!

I'm SO glad that I got some pics of Cory - I was afraid that we went the whole weekend without any evidence that Cory was present!!

PS - this is only from two of eight rolls of film!!

second pic...

It looks like we are all at a bluegrass concert or an outdoor revival!! I wonder who was preaching? (Thanks to Rachel for that joke!)

Pics forthcoming

I just got my pics back today -- and I got a lot of GOOD ones!!! (I had 8 rolls of film!) I just LOVE your camera, Maggie! What kind is it?

And, I love the way you and Court could get the kids to pose (or at least be still) for the pics ~ share your secret, Obi Won...!

Hello!? Is this thing on?

Where is everyone? Surely you are all rested and recoved by now. Here are a couple more pictures... I believe they are pretty self explanatory, but feel free to come up with your own captions. I just ask that you be nice on the one with the girls. :-) I love how their hair is blowing in the wind. Remember when we were all that carefree?? Love, Maggie

Yates' made it home

Hey. We got home around 8:30. Made some stops along the way... anyone ever been to Gene Autry Oklahoma?? Well, not much opened on Sunday... actually not much there at all, but we wanted to see if we could get something for Jim's dad since his health will probably prohibit him from ever getting to go. Anyway, we had a great time this weekend and thanks again to Cousin Heather for arranging the whole thing. How many days until next year?? Love, Maggie & Co. PS: Do we need to write captions for photos? If so, the baby is saying, "Papa John, your white legs are burning my eyes!" The other is Kay and Heather comparing gray hairs. Let's just blame the kids, call it a tie and head for the salon for color, manicures and mimosas.

Here we are!!!

I'll email everyone instructions on how you can access and post to this -- we can keep track of everyone and share pics throughout the year!!! Love ya - Heather
