had to


she was just way to cute, not to!

Kasey's Turn



Kasey didn't want to cooperate the first day, so he got his turn the next.

Everytime he wold see the camera he would say "CHEEEEEESE!" If you didn't get your shot in that two second time frame then forget it!



He is so cute... the only negative about this... you can see how dirty my kids are!
Where is the tissue when you need one!

1st Day

So the first day i had my camera, battery charged, SD card ready... here is what we got!



Jilliann wanted to be a princess (even though she is wearing the witch outfit... go figure!)She did a little mini photoshoot with me! So cute!

~Tommy's exact words... "When she grows up I am going to need 10 shotguns!"


Whoda thunk!

WOW!



Wow, this is all i can say!
We had been saving for awhile and decided to splurge on this!
I love taking pictures of the kids; and well... my little point and shoot just wasn't filling my desires.

we don't have any fancy lenses for it... YET!
but can't wait for those! just in the little bit that we have had it i have fallen in LOVE!

the pictures are amazing... i am no pro but the quality is what gets me!

anyway... i have some pictures coming....

car divider

I cleaned my car out yesterday. I know right. OMG! I decided they the kids needed something to corral all of their toys, so Jilliann and I decided to make something.

awww

makes my heart melt. she was reading a book to her little brother.

Hopscoth Queen

We had a wedding to go to (my aunt's) on Sunday and for entertainment value, the kids -- Jilliann and Uncle Bobby-- played hopscotch! Yes, they did! I forget this game still existed! They did not play outside in the yard or in the driveway.... Nope! They played it in the kitchen! I will explain...

My mom is laying tile, so the backerboard is exposed, grab your closest stick of chalk and DRAW! Now find a coin and get a grown adult and a three year old to jump in the hopscotch squares!

It was really cute and funny!

Jilliann is still wanting to hopscotch with Uncle Bobby!

Kasey boo!


He loves to draw, this silly kid will sit at the table for an hour and draw his heart out. i swear he is telling stories in the process because he gets so animated and serious.
