The backyard provides the most picturesque setting for a beautiful, breath taking outdoor reception. I have attended three of Rich's siblings receptions there (one when we were dating) and I wish I could have been there for the fourth. Especially since Taylor was the final Jackson to get married!My fellas

Parts of Speech

When Brynn needs to clean her hands on-the-go she politely asks for, "Hanitizer, pease."

When Kaitlyn is accused of anything (guilty or not), "Not my fault!" is always her defense.

Brynn caught in the act warrants "I not." every time.

Smudges, stains or spills makes Kaitlyn say, "Mom there's dirk on it."

If Brynn is hungry for dinner she pleads, "Tor-tee-o with cheese."

Kaitlyn builds lots of amazing "forks" on the living room floor using cushions, pillows and blankets.

As Brynn hunts for ripe red tomatoes from the garden each day, she happily exclaims, "Tamaters!" when discovered.

Trey wishes we could have "Cord on the Blue" for supper more often.

And when the boys tossed Brynn's doll to the floor, she shrieked, "Him killed she!"

How in the world did my children become such English scholars?

They must have gotten it from their mother.
