Oldie but a goodie

 

Found this while going through some old files...can't believe I missed this one :)

 



Sweet face

I will never tire of this sweet little face :)

This is the warmest day we have had in a long time....it was still only a high of 50 but felt really warm compared to the 30's we have been having. We were outside for a quick bike ride and some target practice......and of course a few pictures. I haven't been taking very many of us and need to keep that a priority - too much time has gone by and they just change so quickly. Addi goes back to school on monday - here time off from school makes me look forward to summer already :)

True Smile

Trying to get caught up on editing and found this one in a session that I haven't edited yet. Love that this is her genuine smile - laughing so hard with one of her friends. She has such a great laugh and beautiful smile :)

Merry Christmas

What a nice morning - kids had a wonderful time opening presents. Santa was super nice and brought them both new bikes and helmets. We got them a new leap pad and games, addi got her barbie pop star dress, microphone and guitar - bry got riding gear and hunting attire.

It was so cloudy this am and we were up so early - pictures are alittle dark - should have used my flash but I just kind of forgot :( - oh well - this kind of gives you an idea of how it went.

Also a few pictures from Addi's kindergarten Christmas program.

Merry Christmas Everyone.

Merry Christmas Eve!

Just one picture before I am off to sleep - will try to do more later. Hope everyone is doing well and feeling better.

Polar Express

Just a few quick photos - I will post more when I get a chance - of our annual Polar Express trip. Beautiful weather and great friends. Kids were all good!

My Brave little Merida!

So now the outfit is complete! She loves that she has the bow and arrow set and the dress - we have been in a Merida marathon here!

Texas...just a few

Just a few pictures that I have played around with from my Texas trip. The kids really enjoyed seeing their grandparents and exploring new territory. Love the weather and pretty much everything else there...it is a really nice state.

Christmas Photo Saga take #1

Christmas cards are such a huge production here - between family, friends and business clients for both Tim and I, we send out alot of Christmas cards. I always have visions of the perfect family photo session - where there are smiles and hugs and everyone behaves (including Tim)...sigh. Needless to say this isn't how it went. Addi was grumpy, Bryton being shy? My remote control wouldn't work...ugg. Oh well - there is a take 2 in our future...but here are a couple from yesterday.

The Knight

One more of our brave little knight...

Happy Halloween

We went to our friends annual kid friendly Halloween Party on Sunday - always fun to hang out with my friends and their kids. All the children are getting so big! Here are my two - Bry was out of his costume after a short time but he sure looked cute while it lasted :)

Finally a Birthday Party

We finally managed to give Bryton a small Birthday Party....his favorite friends came and they all seemed to have a great time. Ran and played in the yard together. He has wanted a tractor he could ride on for a long time and we finally delivered. Happiest kid on the block right now!

Still playing around with pictures of Addi in her pretend veil. She just looks so beautiful :) We stayed in today - cold, windy and rainy here today and we are all still coughing and not feeling 100%.

Addi

Has been a long two weeks here - playing round robin with a cold....my turn now. Just looking forward to the day when I wake up and feel 100%. Kids are on fall break - so hard to keep them entertained when I don't feel well. Made Addi a wedding vail yesterday (can't find mine). She has been playing wedding dress up ever since....really cute. Can't believe this will actually come to pass some day.

More Bry

We are spending alot of time together - some days it is just him and I. He likes to have all the attention and has a tendency to act up when sister gets home. He was all smiles yesterday - helping me with a little mini shoot in the garage.
