Family Pictures take 2

 We finally got a good family picture before Austin leaves

us on Wednesday for the MTC.

 Wouldn't you know it ..... the WIND started blowing about

an hour before we were ready to try again!

We decided the drive up the canyon to see if we could

get out the the wind! I sure love this little family of mine!

I know that 2 years will fly by...but it might be almost 

4 years before I will have my entire family back together

again!  The Silly moments are what make my heart happy!

Family Photo Attempt

Family Photo Attempt.........and the wind blows!  Ive lived in

Downey for almost 15 years and you would think that 

I would have learned by now that if I'm going to attempt to 

take our family picture....we are gonna have the wind blown look!!

My first born, My Rock, My baby, My handfull!

You know those days, weeks or months and possibly

even years when you get so busy with kids, work, church,

sports, sports, sports, and maybe even more sports?

This has been the way of life for us lately.

I feel like I have forgotten to slow down and remember

the small things that my kids do, usually without me

noticing especially when Im the one taking everyones

pictures....at ALL sporting events.  Did I mention ALL

sporting events.

During the Championship district game on monday

I snapped this little photo...not with my big camera but my

cell phone.  Austin and Zaners have a love hate relationship!

Zaners annoys the crap out of Austin and 

Zaners LOVES Austin!

Austin hit the ball and was on second base....and then you all 

you hear is Zaners yelling "Austin, Austin, all you have

to do is hit the ball!!"

Im not sure who's teaching who here...but these two boys of mine

(Freefree will get his moment) are my life savers!

Who knew at that moment all I needed was a picture of

my oldest and my baby having a "moment'!

They are my life!!

Getting Domestic?

 Todd has too much vacation saved up so he decided to take today off.......Im thinking he needs to take a few more days off and do the laundry and mop for me too!

Zaners is in Heaven....cookies and bread!

Im a lucky lady....my man likes to cook!

Photo Friday - Colorful

I promise Im not on a graffiti kick! 
Man there are some talented people out there!

Photo friday....a little late

I know this is a little late...Ive had a very

busy 2 weeks!

In my neighborhood...

We live really close to the train tracks!

I am always amazed at the "graffiti"

 or "art" on the train cars! 

It amazes me how creative some

people can be .. and how in the world

they can catch a train sitting still long

enough to get creative!
this isn't the most creative....but still worth looking at.

next week: colorful

The BIG "4"

Holy Moly where has the
time gone?  I can't believe this
little man is the BIG "4"!

He keeps us on our toes!  
He's very busy!
He's spoiled rotten!
He loves his super hero's!
He is so stinking smart!
He thinks he's as big as his brothers!

LOVE him to the moon and back!

This boy turned 16 in June and he is finally going to 

go on his first date!
