Trunk or Treat 2007

Jonah is an airforce pilot again. If he couldn't fit into the costume this year he said , "Than I just won't go as anything". He loves that costume. Thankfully it fit!! ;)

Abby and her "friend"... kinda looks like a prom picture. Hum...

Abby as the "Belle" of the Ball!


Time again for Trunk or Treat with our church. The kids had a blast. This year it was in the grocery store parking lot because we have walls up and tons of dirt and mud on the new property! It was a great turn out!

Pumpkin time!!!

Here is one of those pictures I found from a couple months ago. James was recording some of our vinyl pre-historic albums to the computer. Sometimes I just can't help myself. :) I get snapshots in my head. Sometimes they don't come out half bad.

Abby Singing with Jonah as back up vocals

James' parents sent a card for my birthday. Abby likes the song and here she is singing it with Jonah as back ground vocals. Take in account she is only 2 as of May. Still cute. :)

Birthday's!!!

Kiss anyone?!

Me & Ty

It was SOOOO good!

Birthday Martini


Today was my birthday!! James sent me roses and gave me my presents today, even though he was out of town. He is so awesome! Tonight Shannon and Ty took me out to Olive Garden for my birthday dinner. We Bay-thik-lee had so much fun! Plus they made the birthday cake. :)

Abby's twin!!

We found Abby's twin in a doll!! This cracked me up!! Even the chin looks like hers. Plus the doll has Abby's eye color!

I found this picture of Abby when she was between 9-12 weeks.

So there are alot of pictures on this one. I like pictures, what can I say. This blog should be the photo journal of "US". The second day after the Creation museum we went down to KY to the Louisville Slugger museum. The kids had a blast and we got the factory tour and then walked down by the river front. The third day we went to see where the KY Derby is (Churchill downs), but sadly it was closed that early and we went again to the river front and had a great time! We are now back home. Until next time...

Our Weekend Day 1 and part of Day 2

Abby, getting ready to pack

Creation Museum

Daddy and Jonah infront of dinosaur

Day one we took off Friday evening. We stayed right outside of Cincinnati. In the morning we went to the creation museum. It was really good, but our recommendation is to go durning the week. It was very crowded!!!!

Eckerts Farm

Punkin Chunkin

We went out to Eckerts farm to pick apples. Wouldn't you know it, there was a shortage on the trees and they cut off the picking for the day. So... we watched the pumpkin chunking and had some fresh squeezed cider. Some friends from church were up there and then we went to dinner at the Fin Inn. It is a place that has aquariums full of local fish from the river... appetizing huh?! You can't pick your own fish, but some of those "types" of fish are served. You can watch what you eat!!! Pretty disturbing. But we had a great time. The bottom picture of Abby was a total accident. I didn't check my settings and just blew the picture out. I saved it because I was going to play with it and see what it would look like. It is just Black and White and it turned out pretty cool.

The other weekend I shot a wedding. It was a special thing because the couples photographer quit last minute and I knew one of the bridesmaids. So, I agreed. It was a beautiful night, but I have to say unless you are a great friend or relative, I am out of the wedding business. It takes WAY too much. It wasn't even that long. But congratulations to them. I was happy to help out. If you are looking the guy I used to contract for is wonderful. Josephotography.com

Here are some fun images from the day.
