Family Photos... So Far..

This is my most favorite picture ever! I don't know why, but
you have to admit its adorable.


One Sunday afternoon my family decided to get some pictures done before waylon left on his mission. My cousin is trying to put together a portfolio, so my parents decided to let him take the pictures. Two locations, dozens of poses, and a few hours later, he had shot about three hundred pictures. Though all the wiggling, laughing, running around and standing still, he managed to get some pretty good pictures. These are a few of my favorites.
Of course, most of them were of Jack. Who can be to blame when this kid never has the same face twice. I fell in love with him all over again. (As I do every day)



The Leaves were the most fun, and I think he loved it as well.
Just look at the sweet, sweet surprises..





















Father and Son...
Daddy and Daughter...

Son, Nephew and Grandson

Mother and Daughter...
This was probably the hardest part of the whole day. Being girls, we were always worried about one thing or another, but somehow seemed to pull out a good shot.


This is my family. My Mom and Dad, I am the oldest of six, along with my handsome boys, Jack and Justin. Then the rest in line of age is Buckley, Nicole, Waylon, Tabitha and Hunter. Hope you can figure out which ones they are, because thats all the info im giving. :)
The words are kind of messed up and all over the place I know, but think of it as life. We are all over the place, scattered like leaves in the wind but somehow through all the commotion, we find our selves in cool places. Each one of us are in our own stages of life. From marriage, to dating, to working, to playing, each all different, but still each equally important. With out one another, there would be a hole. Treasure those you love and freeze those memories when you can.

"A good book has no ending." R.D. Cumming

No matter where we go, he always wants to "read" his books. A few weeks ago we had to ask Grandma if we could borrow some of her books because Jack loves reading his books (even if its the same sequence of books everyday). Mammy started to get sick of reading the same books over and over, so we borrowed from Grandparents till we got some more.


When Jackson reads, he seems very into what ever the book is about. He has a very determined look when he reads some books, in others he is excited to see the pictures and acts out what he sees. There is never a dull moment when he picks up a book.

Books are a source of information and imagination. I am glad that Jack can get it from somewhere other than daddy or I.
