Q&A #34

Questions about Kennedy & Keeghan's Halloween Pics
I love all of the effects too. Do you use photobucket? The Halloween pictures are just adorable of all 4 kiddos. Kennedy looks so big when the brace is off...I guess mostly different, does she love it when it's off?
Actually I use Picnik.com. There are lots of neat things you can do with your pics there! Most of it is free! :)

Did you upgrade to a premium account? We did, I'm a bit of a dork though lol... must have all the features!
I did... guess that makes me a dork, too! LOL

My caption:
Kenn: "So you go to each house and get candy."
Keeg: "Uh huh"
Kenn: "and then you give it all to the nearest Sincess! I'm serious! It's a tradition at our house."

OK this seriously made me laugh out loud!

Those costumes are adorable. Are they bought or rented???
LOL definitely bought. We bought them at Disneyland in 2002 for Kassidy and Kameron. We used to go every week! I miss it!


Random Questions
I know someone has asked this before, but what do her (Kennedy's) beads say around her neck? Is that the ID things you were talking about that you make?
Her necklace has her name, our home address and my cell phone number in case she were to ever get separated from us. Yes, I am making them... slowly! LOL

Then again, your whole family is gorgeous - please tell me you have ugly feet or something that makes you NOT perfect! ;-)
Hmmmm you should SEE me without makeup on! It's not pretty! LOL

Way to go Kameron! That is great how he has been able to overcome so much. That would be really tough on a child I think b/c so much of their life is tactile, especially when they are so young. Did those things bother him from the beginning like when he was a toddler. Just wondering since toddlers use their hands for so much stimulation and growing.
All of Kam's issues started right around 18 months. After his vaccinations. He lost all his speech, started lining things up obsessively, having major meltdowns every day, and on and on... he was diagnosed with Autism at 2 1/2 and went into therapy which helped immensely!

I heard they are releasing a sing along version of HSM3 in theaters. Will you be going?
Hmmm probably so! LOL We love going to the movies together!

What's a blogging party?
Well... LOL It's a bunch of people who stalk my friend Heather who are mostly all bloggers as well and she threw this big party where all the people who could come for dinner and to hang out. I was told I'm not a stalker since I knew her before blogging... Heather may not agree with that though! HA!

Didn't you say you were going to a blogging party? Okay, what is that? What do you do? Just sit around and blog? 'splan please!
Nope I saw no one with computers there, though I do imagine there was a bunch of twittering going on! LOL Basically it's just a bunch of people who knew each other through the online world coming together to meet, greet and eat! I was over 2 hours late though so I missed most of the good stuff... including the eating part! LOL

Hey there, you just reminded me, did they ever recover any pictures off of your card for you? Surely they're not still working on it?
Yes, they did get several pictures from Philly back for me. I'm going to take it into a camera shop too to see if they can get any more back! :)

Is Kennedy 4?
Yes, she'll be 4 1/2 on November 16th.

So no GPS is a theme with you, huh, lol!
LOL It's not my fault! They didn't have them 10 years ago! (Or if they did, they were VERY expensive!) We didn't even have cell phones back then! LOL

Have you seen the website Team Unite? I just found it from another caringbridge site & it has info to urge congressmen/women to childhood cancer issues/funding! I am sure you have seen it...but just wanted to make sure!
I have seen it! Thanks! Everyone else go check it out!

I'm going to need to borrow you to download all of my pics. I'm way behind on gettin my pictures posted. Do you take bribes???
Hmmm I dunno... how much you offering?!


Wedding Questions
Very nice pictures. Where was the wedding held at? The building behind looks like it has so much character.
It was the 1842 Inn. It was SO beautiful!!

Did you take all of the pictures for the wedding? If not, you should have. Looks like a pro took them.
I took all the ones I posted... but they had a professional photographer there too. I'm merely a wannabe! LOL

Glad the wedding went well...way too much on your blog to catch up on. Couldn't you have taken the week off, lol?
LOL Sorry!!!

Kassidy looks beautiful. Where did you get her dress?
JC Penneys actually! I looked everywhere for one for her!

So do you have Kass promised to Hunter too? They look like they would make a cute couple ;).
LOL Wellllll Their kids aren't allowed to date until they're 18, so we'll have to see where they are in 2009/2010! hahah

So I know that your setting Austin up with Kenn, will you also be setting Hunter and Kass up?
Who knows, anything could happen ;). I know Kass would have AWESOME inlaws that way at least!

When my daughters get married, will you be our photographer?
Sure thing! LOL

Oh my! She is absolutely gorgeous. So is everyone else but tell me? Did Kennedy steal the show!?
LOL well... she was second to Kristin ;).

Your children are breathtaking. Can I import them in for my wedding for extra cuteness? ;)
Absolutely... but only if I can come too! LOL

Creative Memories does books as well...can you send me a CD, or can I have your permission to copy them into a book? I would love to do a royal book for Kenn!
Sure! I'll send you a CD that way you have the full versions!

I noticed that she didn't have her neck brace. Was she allowed to keep it off for the wedding?
Yep! Her surgeon said it would be fine for that short amount of time. It went right back on as soon as the wedding was over.

Was I the only one worried about her not wearing her neck brace? I missed a post somewhere about it, off to read.
Don't worry, I got permission. :) I did post about it in one of the previous Q&As... I wouldn't do anything to let her get hurt. :)

This story reminds me of Brienna's 4th Birthday when she had Cinderella there. Do you remember writing a story like this on Kassidy's Korner? I loved it so much then. You are really creative Renee...Great job!!!
YES! I was looking at our old site to see if it might still be there, but it's gone. I loved that story, too!

Kassidy didn't feel sad at all having all the attention on Kennedy did she?
Nope, Kristin actually gave Kass the job of handing out programs at the wedding. She even got a corsage. It made her feel very special :).

Can I just have her(Kennedy)? LOL
We come as a joint package... the 4 kids and I... and Frank too, when he gets home! LOL I do believe my mom wouldn't be far behind! hahahaha

Simply precious! I knew they'd be good pictures, but those pictures are unbelievable!! Do you have enough wall space for all of them (I don't know how you would choose which ones to display!!)?
LOL Wellll I think I can probably find some space ;). I may do a collage type frame.

I'm adding an "A" to your "Q&A" for you (LOL):


Q- Simply precious! I knew they'd be good pictures, but those pictures are unbelievable!! Do you have enough wall space for all of them (I don't know how you would choose which ones to display!!)?
A-LOL Wellll I think I can probably find some space ;). I may do a collage type frame.

You should buy one of those digital slideshow-ish frames and dedicate it to the wedding pictures, and then you could put all of them in one frame, without having to size down the pictures for a collage! I don't have any myself, but if I had the money (and a room to display it in) I would be all over those...What a great idea!

Your. Daughter. Is. Beautiful! Well, all your kids are, but the wedding pics of Kennedy are fantastic. Hi Renee, I'm a... "blurker"... A blog-lurker. I've read your blog for a few weeks now; came across it quite coincidentally (no, it was a God-moment!)and love it. You write so well! I "de-lurked" and left a comment on someone else's blog yesterday -- I'm so brave! Ha! -- so thought, hey, might as well make this a two-day event. Anyway, may God bless you and your family -- you are blessing many of us with your wonderful blog! Happy Wednesday,

Sarah Stuart, CO.

You mentioned Kameron stopped talking, etc., after his vaccines. Do you think the vaccines are to blame for his condition now? There's obviously such debate about the effects of vaccines and the link to autism - just wanted to ask someone who experienced it what her opinion is. Thanks!

Hey,

Do you need my address to send me the CD? I'd love to do a book for Kenn for Christmas.

What are the upgraded features on Piknik? I'm totally dorky too when it comes to photos, but I'm also broke, lol.

I thought of an awesome idea for a cancer fundraiser since I am not doing Disney. I'll email you later tonight.

And for whomever it was who wanted to know if there is anything that makes Renee not perfect...having met Renee a couple of times now, I can say that she is, in fact, very close to perfect. However, she is a little on the short side. You know, the short, cute side that always makes we taller folks feel like awkward preteen giants, lol. And her kids really ARE that cute and well behaved, which makes the misbehavior of one's own kids seem that much worse!

Almost forgot...on those pics recovered from Philly, are there any of our kids together?
