This weeks Fun Monday is being hosted by the Nekked Lizards. Here is the challenge:
“THE DOUBLE NICKEL 5&5 FUN MONDAY Challenge. The rules are simple.
FIVE PICTURES – FIVE WORDS PER PICTURE.
Any 5 (FIVE) pictures, any subject, and any 5 (FIVE) words for the caption. CAN YOU DO IT???”
So, I decided to introduce you to my family for this weeks Fun Monday.

Here’s my one and only.

Turning sweet 16 next week.**

My sweet and feisty toddler.

My little miss Dottie Doo.

Our favorite place to vacation.
WooHoo! I did it! Go on over to visit the Nekked Lizards to see the other participants.
**Updated- This picture is from 2000, that’s why she looks so young. She hides from the camera now, so I had to pick an old favorite. This doesn’t count as extra words though
I’m just responding to some of the comments about how young she looks.

WooHoo You Did!!
And very clever five’s, too!
Okay.. I’ gotta say the husband’s a handsome one and the kids are even cuter. Darn! Even the dog does a great pose.

Such a beautiful family. I’d like to participate on this quiz too, one of these days
Thank you dropping by my blog and welcoming me to TT. I’m not exactly sure how the proper posting goes, so I’ll take your lead on that, is that okay?
Have a great week ahead of you.
