Just Dance

We got 'Just Dance 2' for Christmas. Watch the vid. Nuff said. . . .Dawg!!

My Lil' Man

Greg is completely appalled that I would put what he calls, "legwarmers," on our baby boy.  I told him they are called Baby Legs and that baby boys wear them too.  He laughed hysterically when he saw these photos.  He is never going to let this die...I think he is just jealous that he can't pull off the leg warmer look like his son!

 I've got to take more pictures of him while he is still somewhat immobile.  He is starting to get around....

Snow Day

What a warm, snowy, FUN day.  The kids keep praying for another one!

She has been so fun to watch outside with the boys.  I love seeing a pair of pink snow pants running by.  

His eyes just make me melt....they are so peaceful.

Family Pictures 2010

Gabriela Walker took our family photos this year.  You can see more of her work here.

Carving Pumpkins 2010

Greg and I have worked out a deal when it comes to carving pumpkins.  He does all the work and I take all the pictures.  It works for us....

Half a Year Old...

He's trying to do new cool stuff...just not quite there with the whole sitting on his own yet!  And I'm okay with that!

Happy Halloween

Having kids makes Halloween so fun.  I love watching their excitement over candy and costumes!


We had a pirate...

A cute spider...

A sweet little Indian...

Count Dracula...

The Mountain Man....When we explained to the kids that Greg was a logger, Carson was worried that Greg was a bad guy.  I always wanted to marry a tall, dark, and handsome man!  I told Greg he may have to start coloring his hair (and eyebrows).  I think the goatee and mustache will never happen...it would take him years to grow that!

Ava wasn't so sure what to think of Greg all dressed up.

I realized I never took an individual picture of Hayden as a ghoul!  Here's the whole crew!

And finally the pumpkins.  This is the only part of Halloween that I despise.  My pumpkin is the one with the 3 holes in it.  I was going to carve a lot of circles in my pumpkin but I got bored after 3 so I just left it.   If it weren't for Greg, the kids would have to draw on the outside of their pumpkins.  I'm such a scrooge.  

Leaves Are Falling All Around

As we have been walking these paths in our neighborhood, I've had my eye on a couple of spots to take pictures with all the leaves.  I've really enjoyed my days with these three.  They are pretty funny together.  Weston wasn't up for much photo time, but the other kids had fun climbing around in the trees. 

My Buddy

I just can't get enough of my sweet little guy.  I am enjoying him so much and love having him be part of our family.  

I Don't Know Anything...

The more I learn about editing in photoshop elements, the less I feel like I know.  It's a little overwhelming.  But I love learning new techniques and the latest thing I've found is textures.  I think they are pretty fun.  

Carson's first day of preschool!  It's still amazing to me to discover how different each child handles the same situation.  I remember two years ago when Jason first went to preschool.  I had to pry him from my leg and practically run away so he couldn't hold onto me.  He struggled everyday until about 6 months into the school year.  Then, he finally decided it was okay to stay without me.  I remember just being so worried everyday that I dropped him off..wondering if that would be the day that he would be "adjusted."  Carson, on the other hand, ran into the class and has just LOVED being in school.  I think he was pre-adjusted. He just loves feeling like a big kid...FINALLY! 

He just keeps getting more and more fun.  The kids can get him to laugh now, so the comedian acts come out a lot around here.  Most of them are too rough for this little guy so I have to put a stop to them but he is VERY LOVED.

These two have become such great playmates.  Carson gets pretty bummed when Ava has to take a nap.  It's pretty peaceful during the day.

Jason and Sara's Family Pictures

I took my brother's family pictures a few weeks ago.  I was so nervous to do it.  When they drove up looking all dressed up and cute, I seriously thought I was going to throw up I was so nervous.  But...I did end up having a great time (especially once I knew they liked their pictures).  These are some of my favorites.

New 'Do For the Little Dude

I finally let Greg cut his hair...I was a little sad about it.  But I do think he looks SO handsome now.
