Family Pictures

Have I mentioned that I LOVE getting family pictures taken? LOVE LOVE LOVE it! My super talented friend Ruth (ruthmechamphotography.blogspot.com) did our pictures this year and I am so happy with the results!

 

Happy Halloween From Chandler

Careful... it's pretty spooky.  :)

 

A True Fan

Dora? No. Miley? Nope. When this girl gets to pick out a poster for her room, she wanted the Cougars.

Pumpkin Patch!

Jessica's preschool class took a field trip this week to a pumpkin patch.  Chandler and I tagged along for the fun. 

We started with a fun stroll through the hay maze:

Chandler loved the little pumpkins...

and the rocks.

Yeah, mostly the rocks.

While Chan was busy throwing rocks, Jessica went off in search of the perfect pumpkin.

Perfect.

Next the kids piled on a mini train for a ride around the patch.  Chandler is only there for the photo op. I know him well enough to know he wouldn't last two seconds on there w/o me.

While the preschoolers were off on their ride, Chandler stayed busy jumping off of a mini-ledge.  This kid could be happy for hours just jumping off of street curb size ledges.

See, I was there too. It always amazes me how few pictures there are of me in existence. I guess that's what it is to be Mom.

This little photo shoot was too funny. We couldn't come close to having all the kids look at us, much less smile.  Goofs. Oh, and see the little boy in the red striped shirt?  That is Luke.  He's the boy who's has captured Jessica's heart. Her first crush at 4 years old. Oh dear.

Jessica and Chan (and there's Luke again) :)

Even though he didn't want to ride on the train, Chandler wanted a picture with it. This is the face he makes whenever we tell him to smile.  I love that boy.

Speaking of Chandler, this is him today, with Sprite and Saltines.  Poor guy was up all night throwing up. He's been content today just to lie on the couch and chill.

That's my boy

Yep, he's a cutie.

Family pictures next week, so be excited for that... I am.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE getting family pictures taken.  Pray for good weather next week.  Pictures were supposed to be today, but this darn wind and rain.  Ugh.  Anyway, I'll post some cute ones in the coming weeks once they're all taken and edited and all.  SOOO excited!
