This is the newest member of the Alder clan.... Puss in Boots

This video was taken after watching a series of 1-act plays at Jason's high school. Please remember that this was at the McDonalds drive through at about 11:00 pm. You can hear all the kids in the background adding their imput. Gratefully I am behind the camera!

Baseball 2008

Both boys are playing catcher. ~Duncan is on the Cardinals and Connor is on the Red Sox~

We run a food booth at Talledega Speedway as a fundraiser for our cheerleading program. Although I am not a big fan of NASCAR it gives you a definite respect for how fast those cars are going!!! This is why we have chili for Thanksgiving~

HAPPY 15TH BIRTHDAY JASON!!!

HAPPY EASTER!
(yes I know that Duncan looks like his neck is brocken...he does this in almost every family pic that we take!)

For St.Patrick's Day Andy and I took the kids to Birmingham Botanical Gardens. Madi stayed with her friend because she wasn't up to the hike. The "extra" girl in the group is Jason's best friend Sharron.

Birmingham Botanical Gardens St. Patty's Day 2008

Just to update those of you who were wondering. Madi is home and slowly healing. She spent 3 days at Children's Hospital and they FINALLY took her appendix out. They did exploratory surgery to make that decision but at least she is feeling better now. After a week + of her hurting I am very relieved.

Thank you to everyone who sent flowers and cards and all the yummy food! We love you all!!!
