MEET THE SMITHS

Chris is "THE MAN" around the house. He works hard but plays even harder. He is a cowboy at heart, a master gardener in the yard and needs ice cream and Dr. Pepper to be happy. He is not a morning person, unless it's hunting season. In that case, "If it flies, it dies," and he's out the door.

This is "Momma"... she cooks and cleans and reads and cheers and drives and scolds, all in the name of love. She enjoys the quiet of early mornings, exercises to keep herself sane, and can't be trusted in Target or TJ Maxx. She doesn't let her kids eat refined sugar and throughly enjoys laundry. She frequently rewards herself with Diet Coke for good behavior.

Liv is a brilliant child, loves school, her friends and being in charge. She rocks on the piano and can out swim most fish. She adores her brothers, even though she'll never admit it. Someday she hopes to be magical.

Nick is hilariously funny and the super star athlete of the family. Most days he pretends to be someone other than himself. He plans to be Indiana Jones when he grows up. He can talk his way out of anything so be warned. And don't ever try to serve him mashed potatoes.

At 2 years old, this fella is bigger than most four year olds. His curly hair accounts for a good portion of his weight and he can out eat both Nick and Livi in minutes. He is a cuddly, sweet, happy little guy who loves to tease and play chase. He is not, however, one to be pushed around and has been known to take shots at others and kick walls when provoked.
