The boys had some friends come over to play today and after they got bored of things to do inside, we decided to go and play in the snow. When their dad arrived to pick them up, he decided to join in the fun: ...
I wanted to get a couple of action shots of Linkin this time, though I only really got two good ones. Maybe I'll try and photograph him playing in his yard sometime where he has more room to run and jump. He loves his toys and he really enjoys playing with the kids. Ready for me to throw it again. I thought the color selection of the ball would be fun in this photo. I love to hear ...
Over the holiday season our family attended two different Christmas parties. Here are some of my favorite shots from each.These first few pictures were taken during a white elephant party we attended. I just love this little girls bright bold eyes and her mischievous glance.

But I do like the natural warm glow of the photos. Guess what? I don't own a genuine ...
Photo Credit: Dave Taylor The above photograph is one of my all time favorites. It was taken by our good friend Dave Taylor at Christmas time a few years ago when our fourth child was two months old. This photo conveys so much about me and my life. Family is everything to me. My husband is just as good-natured and relaxed as he looks here. He is my other half, my very best friend. ...
