Happy Birthday, Christy Jean!

Christy Jean (Parrott) McDonald -

God knew what He was doing when He put you in Jude's womb. He knew that this family needed a fashion savvy, go-getter with a heart of gold. Your lightness of heart reminds me to stay positive and hopeful, your charm and energy inspires me to be creatively ambitious, and your loving kindness is contagious.

(And did I mention you're one of my very favorite things about the grand state of Texas. I had the best time.) The only thing I would change about you is your location. I'd make you a couple of plane rides closer...

You brighten our world and I am/we are so blessed to have you.Wishing you the most wonderful day ever!!

P.S. You may have noticed that I stole this pic off of your blog, but it was just so beautiful and I thought you'd prefer it to one a little less flattering (like one in your jammies - See Trina's Happy Birthday blog)

Life Lessons

We taught the kids an important life lesson today - that hard work really pays off in the end.

Wait for it....

Wait for it....

Ahhhh, refreshment after that long walk, kettle corn!

His Mother's Son

Just look at that smile! I thought Julie might get a kick out of this picture. Lockjaw and all... (click on the picture to enlargen it to get the full effect).

Mother's Day

Hail to the women who keep this family going!!

Happy Birthday Jim!!

James Steven Parrott

Born May 4th, 1980

A sweet boy to a loving, gentle man...

I find it a privilege to give my life to you and an honor to sacrifice for the sake of our family.

I'll follow you anywhere - my heart is yours.

Just please shoot a bear.

Happy Birthday Grace!!

Grace Amaris Parrott, superstar

Born May 1st, 2004

So much energy and charisma...

God knew I needed your smile to keep me going.

I love you more than chocolate!

Urkel

Danny just gave an entirely new meaning to "Urkel your pants" when he dressed Taylor for bed tonight.

Hugs from sunny Tejas!

Hair

We took Taylor in for a new hair style today. What do you think of this one? We'll just call him Slick from now on....

Happy Birthday Katy!!!

So the original plan with this was that Taylor would hold the sign and smile all cute and it would be a happy little birthday pictuer for Katy. But the boy just wouldn't cooperate. So imagine, if you will, that there is a happy little Taylor holding this picture and smiling because he loves his Aunt Kay Kay soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much, and wants nothing more than to wish her a happy, happy, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Trina!!

To the honorary member of the Parrott family,

Happy Birthday!!

We love you and wish you many more happy years with us here in Ketchikan!

(If you move away, the happy wishes are null and void.)

Trina - So sorry... this is the only pic I have of you. You probably did not want to be plastered on the Internet in your jammies, but usually only the family views this blog... and all of Christy's friends... and sometimes my friends. Again, so sorry.

Reuben: The New Parrott

Introducing Reuben Luther Parrott!!!

The newest member of the Parrott clan is getting tons of attention.

(Maybe too much from the look of it.)

He is showing some favoritism towards his Daddy...

But he likes his Mommy just fine too.

Grace, on the other hand, is showing some signs of regression...

but maybe just in response to Reuben's keen fashion sense.

How could she possibly keep up?!

Pop that collar, BOY!

Can't go wrong in camo!

Grace is also enjoying getting to do things she previously did not get away with...

And she is always pleased to hold her brother...

Reuben, however, does not concur.

Stay tuned for more from the Parrott family...

82 degrees

I don't want to brag or anything, but it was sunny and in the low 80's here over the weekend. And I hear you guys are having a coolish combination of rain and snow? Huh? Was that right? More cold, wet weather for you? Just wondered.

Close Up

We'll call this one - "up close and personal" with Taylor Bob.

Killed the Blog.....

I just wanted to protest the recent accusations that I, Jim Parrott am the author of the New Years eve family planning post that killed the family blog. Although I do fully support the post and i laughed quite hardly, it was my wife who posted.
p.s. who else thinks that since my wife went on a 3 week Oregon vacation, its justifiable to go moose hunting and spend a couple dollars next year????
