Gulf Shores, Take 3!

Our PRECIOUS nieces Maddie and Gracie!! They made our week!

Gulf Shores, Take 2!

These are some fo the family pics!!

Gulf Shores 2007, Take One!

I have SOO many pics of the trip, I decided to divide them up. This is "Round One", some pics of Austin and I! (Sorry about the repeat pic...I have no clue how to delete!)

Home, Sweet Home!

Well, we Hosford's all made it back home to Michigan finally! Trust me...there are dozens of pics from Gulf Shores that will be posted ASAP, or as soon as we get our laptop back from repair! Although we aren't fond of coming home to snow (yuck), we are all glad to be home safe and sound. And for me in particular, I was SOOOOO happy to see my boys! Stay tuned for the pictures...:)

Here's the Proof!

Well, this is that last pic of my long hair. Johanna did an awesome job cutting off more than a foot of hair, all of which will go to Locks of Love! So long, long hair! I was shaking and sweating right about here...

WOW! I was almost crying here...definitely in shock! No turning back now...

The finished result, with the "mop" You can see how short the back is in the mirror.

Austin had to come see it for himself! He thought the "mop" looked like a dead animal, but still smiled! Actually, Austin says he LOVES my new 'do!

Should We, or Shouldn't We???

Austin promised we could get another furkid after Spring Break, and we have been debating on whether to get a puppy or a pig! This is Doug, the pig that made us fall in love with the idea of having a pig for a pet! They are super clean, and act a lot like a dog.

Any thoughts on the subject...??

**There is a slight chance we may postpone this new Furkid adventure...we have some serious baby Bibler stuff coming up soon, thanks to the wonderful Dr. Pete! No, no, no...we are not expecting. But Dr. Pete is expected to help us expect! (Did that make sense?)**

Another Hair Pic...

This was Austin and I at Joel's party last Saturday. It will be the last pic of us w/ my long hair for a loooong time! You see the layer just below my chin...yup...that's how short my hair will be! AAHHHH!!!

And by the way, WE LEAVE FOR GULF SHORES TOMORROW!!! WOO HOO!

I'M GONNA DO IT...

That's right...this mass of long, thick, heavy hair will be almost all gone by 2:00 today! YIKES! I am SOOOO nervous, yet so ready! I will post "proof" of this soon after the cut for those who have been telling me that I'll chicken out!! But I have faith in you, Johanna!!!!!!!!!

I will miss you, hair! We've had a lot of history together...;) If you look bad after the cut, PLEASE grow back fast!

More B-Day Pics!!

Julie and I being...Julie and I!

Mmmmm...Jamaican Ten Speeds! Bina and I love these! :)

Joey drank too many icky shots...as you can clearly see in this photo! We ended up having to leave becaue SOMEONE (not saying any names, JOEL!) got sick in the bathroom!

About 1/2 of the crew...the other half was M.I.A.

HAPPY 28th Birthday Joel!!!

This was early in the night...when things were still crystal clear! We celebrated Joey's b-day with about 20 friends at MoJo's last Saturday!!

The Biblers and our dear Chip and Anne Johnson!

Katie, Bina and Annie

Austin actually looks tall! Thanks for shrinking, Joel and Chip!

1 WEEK!!!!

That's right...we are now T-Minus 7 days until we arrive in sunny, warm Gulf Shores!! One week from today the ENTIRE HOSFORD CLAN (woo hoo!) will be getting to our stress-free, work-free environment for 7 days!!! Well, Mom and Dad will already be there, but the rest of us swing on in Friday afternoon to meet 'em! We cannot wait to hang out w/ the fam (especially Maddie and Gracie!), as well as family friends.

Just wanted to brag for uno momento...;)

St. Patty's Day '07

Well, I'm going to let the pictures do the talking here. Needless to say, we had fun. Enjoy!
