Do you hear a BUZZZZZZING sound?


Look at those cute little Pumpkins!!!


We had a busy October, but oh so much fun! We went to Indiana and picked our own pumpkins in the pumpkin patch. We won't even talk about the delightful smell that was following Miss Ceili around the patch! Holly, that will be a day you'll never forget!!!!! Later that night we headed on up to Conner Prairie to see if that Horsemen was still looking for his head....he was! The kids had a blast...not to mention I did too....I think this is one of my most favorite traditions!
What an exhausting weekend~~




Pumpkin Carving at it's best!!

Cute as a button....or a bee!

This Halloween we went to the Walsh Family Halloween party....talk about fun! We had a great time getting all dressed up for the big event! Keira was the most adorable Baby Bee, I was Queen Bee and Don was the Bee Keeper! Shae was a very pretty devil and Ty was a good ol Indiana Nascar driver, Jeff Gordan!!! Take a look at the cute shots of us at the party as well as going out for Keira's first night of Trick or Treating!

Summer has come to an end!

Summer has come to an end, but that doesn't mean the fun has to!!
Shae started the 3rd grade this year...wow, before we know it, she'll be driving! She loves her teacher and seems to be doing just fine with her studies...she's a smart cookie...takes after me~

We went camping this past Labor Day weekend and absoultely had a blast! The weather was gorgeous, the sites were fantastic and the company was competely enjoyable! This was Shae, Ty and Keira's first camping trip. We were a little nervous to see how everyone would handle it. Minus a wipe out on a bike, it was a perfect weekend and we look forward to going again next year! We've already put dibs on the sites we want!! Take a look at some of the snapshots we have of our fun time!

Carter and Keira enjoying a hike! Keira was awfully excited about something....sweet girl!!!

Gotta love VACATION!!!!

I just love palm trees, an ocean breeze and the sound of my family all around me!

We took a "Mager" road trip this summer and ended up in Hilton Head, SC. We all piled in the Santa Fe and headed to a gorgeous house we rented with the Mennel clan. I enjoyed myself immensely!

Shae and Ty could not get enough of the pool, they have really turned into little fish this past year!

Keira was actually able to sit on the beach, you know she's a big girl now and is sitting up on her own! She loved playing with her toys on the beach blanket. Uncle Matt, Auntie Jamie and Carter hung-out with us under the umbrella.....that sun is intense!!


She was living it up in the pool under her cabana raft....what a life!

Speaking of what a life....Shae couldn't get enough of the huge jacuzzi tub, she loved soaking in a bubble bath!

The kids had a blast flying the kites they received from Nana and Papaw, until a huge gust of wind took off with Shae's! It was fun watching daddy explain that one!
We also decided what better place to celebrate Ty's birthday than on vacation! Unfortunately it rained the day we planned to have the bash, but it didn't stop us from having a water balloon war! The kids really had a great time!

The men enjoyed a day of golf and had a lot of fun on the little dock at the house...perfect for the little fish they were catching!

Ceili took advantage of the privacy we had around the pool, for a little nude sunbathing....Holly
and Justin you better keep your eye on her!



All in all it was a great time! I love our annual summer vacation with the whole family(we need Ash next year)...I can't wait to enjoy them in the years to come!


Ty and Papaw hangin out at the Pirate's House, Savannah, GA!

Okay, Okay.....


I deeply apologize for not updating the blog! I just don't know where my time goes...it slips away so quickly! I'm going ahead and starting where I left off...end of June, first of July...at least we're still in 2007! Here goes, hope you guys enjoy!





Is it my turn? Keira and I before her first class!

Take a look at our future olympic swimmer! Ty, Shae and Keira all took swim lessons this summer at the YMCA. We all had a great time hangin out in the pool...brings back lots of memeories of my own days at the YMCA! Keira and Ty are continuing their lessons this fall. Shae decided to perfect her gymnastic skills and heads to the Y two nights a week...busy, busy, but we love it!


Keira and I doing Humpty Dumpty! She's taking it all in!




Here's Ty....sitting pretty at Ceili's party! Keira and Carter enjoying the party!




Next we went home for Ceili Beili's 2nd birthday! We had so much fun! We found out some awesome news....Baby vonBuchler #2 is on the way! We cannot wait to meet that little one!



We also went to Granny and Poppa Bob's annual 4th of July cookout. It was so nice to see those that we don't see very often! All the excitement just pooped Keira out! She did wake up for a little picture with Gran!





We went to Grandma Josie's for a 4th of July cookout. Keira had a good time watching the kids run around outside!

Keira turned 6 mos old in July, wow, I can't believe it....she should still be 6 weeks old! She won a Baby Contest...in Indiana! We kinda cheated and entered her in the Marion County Fair Baby Contest....Ohio county fairs do not do Baby Contests! She was so cute, definitely hammed it up for the judges! She followed in cousin Ceili's footsteps and won her age category....she was beat out by a little girl in the age group above her for the Grand Champion! That's okay, she'll always
be our Grand Champion!

Here's Keira with Nana after the contest!
