Hale Family: Fall Fun
http://halefamilychicago.blogspot.com/2008/11/fall-fun.html
Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Monday, November 17, 2008. Sorry these pictures took me so long to share. October was such a busy month for us, and when it was over, I let the ball drop. Now that it's almost Thanksgiving, I thought I had better get this post out! The Saturday before Halloween is when we got started with the fall festivities. Here we are at the Gethsemane Gardens. Fall event. I'm sure it had a catchier name than that, but I don't remember:. S Fall Fest. (For the last few years, o...

Hale Family: Girls in Gulf Shores
http://halefamilychicago.blogspot.com/2008/09/girls-in-gulf-shores.html
Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Wednesday, September 3, 2008. Girls in Gulf Shores. A couple of weekends ago, I took a trip down to Gulf Shores, AL with my friends from Baton Rouge. It was so good to spend time with them and catch up. Not to mention the luxury of NOT changing diapers for almost a week! I can't believe they're already a year old! We stopped at Lambert's on our way in and stuffed ourselves! Melissa will thank me for this one:. We really lucked out this year. The condo was huge (th...

Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Sunday, March 23, 2008. Happy Easter, everybody! We have had a nice Easter Sunday. The Easter Bunny was good to Braden and Madeline, we worshipped with our Lakeview. Family (and missed those of you who were elsewhere this year), and even enjoyed an Easter egg hunt after church. INDOORS. And here's why:. Above you see Braden, our building and our car on Saturday morning. That's what Good Friday brought us! Of snow still on the ground! Made up for it! I think he was a l...

Hale Family: February 2008
http://halefamilychicago.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Sunday, February 17, 2008. Braden and I both had our first experience at a 'Monster Truck' rally this Saturday at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL. 'Monster Jam' was very loud and entertaining and we both had a great time. After seeing the trucks crush a couple of cars, Braden decided he wanted to become a 'Monster Truck' driver. Understandable. Who wouldn't want to crush cars in an enormous truck for a living. I can definitely see the appeal. Braden and I made a dr...

Hale Family: Montrose Harbor
http://halefamilychicago.blogspot.com/2008/09/montrose-harbor.html
Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Friday, September 26, 2008. Yesterday, after school, it was so nice out that I hated to just take the kids home and stay indoors. So we crossed Lake Shore Drive and parked at Montrose Harbor. At first, she was a little confused. After all, they aren't pink and polka-dotted! But after Braden got them to quack, she was beside herself. We walked through the park for a while, then made our way to the beach:. It was Maddie's first time to go to the beach! Our's is private&...

http://halefamilychicago.blogspot.com/2008/09/kids-these-days.html
Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Wednesday, September 10, 2008. Braden started Kindergarten last week! It's been hard on him (and me) but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he will someday learn to enjoy it. Below is a piture of him outside his new school. He is attending Walt Disney Magnet School. Hopefully I'll remember to take a better picture this afternoon. It's a beautiful day. Like a little computer! Braden on the internet, probably Playhouse Disney:. I am sure he will adjust.as will you!

Hale Family: June 2008
http://halefamilychicago.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Thursday, June 12, 2008. Since We've Been Gone. Well, we're back after almost a month of not having the internet at home! After battling with AT&T since May 16th to have our service re-installed, it took just one call yesterday to RCN and they were out this morning at 9 am to give us new service. I don't know why I waited this long to give AT&T the big heave-ho! So Since May 16th, here's what's been going on:. Braden started tee ball :. He graduated from preschool:.

Hale Family: April 2008
http://halefamilychicago.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Wednesday, April 23, 2008. For those of you who don't already know where we went last weekend, I'll give you three hints:. How much more typical Louisiana can you get? We went to Minden for Roger's grandmother's 75th birthday celebration. Happy Birthday, Mams! On Saturday, over 50 people came over to Roger and Jeana's to celebrate with her. It was a day of food, fun and sun, and Braden got the sunburn to prove it! And this morning she discovered that if she rolls from...

Roger, Heather, Braden and Madeline. Monday, July 14, 2008. We just returned from spending two weeks in Tennessee with my family. As always, it was a busy time, but full of fun. We arrived Thursday afternoon, just before the annual Brewer family reunion on Saturday, June 28th. Unfortunately, I didn't get my camera out the entire day. Not once. But we had a great time catching up and showing off all the new additions. Madeline was a hit! Then a dinosaur adventure, the Dixie Stampede. Madeline spent some t...
