Long overdue post

My handsome

dude

I look to big brother for everything!

She actually sat still!!!



Hello everyone!! It has been a long time since I have blogged. For you all that check... We had a great Thanksgiving! James went down to TN to be with his folks. The kids and I stayed in St. Louis and Shannon's family came out to the house and we had a great turkey meal here. Here are some pictures I took of the kids while trying to get the Christmas Card picture. They were a handful!!!! But one of these is not the Christmas card picture, so I didn't ruin it. :)
Enjoy as you prepare for Christmas!

Family Portraits

Here is a really nice couple I got to take pictures of this weekend! It was their whole family, but I am only posting them. :) They are so laid back and they were fun to work with. Enjoy the pictures!! Thanks guys!!

The Nerd Handbook

This article is too funny, yet very true. If you are one or are married to one you owe it to yourself to read it. (http://www.randsinrepose.com/archives/2007/11/11/the_nerd_handbook.html)

Jonah Story

This is Jonah's story from school. He wrote it and illustrated it. His cursive is better than mine!!! Remember he is only 5. Crazy huh?!!! Enjoy!

Yet even more fall pictures

More pictures! We went down to St. Charles and had cookies and hot chocolate tonight! It was beautiful. Happy Fall as we come closer to Thanksgiving.

I love it when you can take a picture and turn it into art. Not that photography isn't art, but this reminds me of what should be in some nature exhibit.

More fall

My picture buddy today... she was watching the geese.

More pictures from this AM. Fall is beautiful out here.

Happy Fall

Happy fall! Well, it is now all the way upon us. These were taken at the Busch Wildilfe preserve. It is a cool place. Abby and I had to get out of the house today and so we took a drive. Over this fall we have had Jonalee and James' birthdays! James had a great birthday eventhough it was full of church stuff. The weather is now getting colder in the mornings and it kinda wakes you up. We are fast approaching Thanksgiving! Yea!! The kids are getting very excited.

Take care.
