Around the house at Christmas time..



Gavin sporting some lovely frames..

Their Gingerbread train.. this was fun.. interesting..



I love this shot! Can't decide if I like it in color or B/W better? Is she not the sweetest?





I really love Christmas time and the decorations and the lights.. it's just plain fun! The kids have had fun playing with the train set, making cookies, opening their advent calender every morning and singing Christmas music! Here a few shots around the house... Enjoy!

Photo Fun...











If you have young kids, you know getting a good shot with all of them smiling is really difficult.. no scratch that.. impossible!! So me and my bright ideas decide to do this today when Hugh is at work (1st mistake) and it's just me.. well, as you can see.. it was quite interesting.. Morgan who is normally very camera friendly, decided she wanted nothing to do with it.. Ugh... Brayden was waving half the time, and Gavin , well, Gavin who knows! I did use one for our Christmas card, because I needed to get them ordered and in the mail! Anyway.. enjoy my crazy, adorable kids!

Busy, fun weekend...

We had a busy, but fun weekend. We celebrated our niece's dedication lunch today and while exhausting were excited to be there. We had a lot of fun with the kids this weekend, playing hide and seek and hiding certain items and having them go on a "hunt" for them! Tonight, while praying Brayden's prayer was: "Dear Jesus, I love you a lot, thank you that I made me obedient, and I"m the bestest" At this point Hugh chuckled, Brayden turned around (he was on his lap) and said "No daddy, we don't laugh when someone is praying! Hugh got busted! Too cute! The things that come out of his mouth are a riot! We were doing a big floor puzzle, not something we do too often, because of a certain little girl who walks all over them and picks up the pieces.. but nonetheless we were doing one.. and we got on a roll and out of a 4 year old mouth comes: "Now we're cooking with gas!" I guess I've said that before and he picked up on it! Too funny! Yes, kids can be quite amusing.

Our Zoo Trip










We went to the zoo a few weekends ago with Grandma Dwyer and Aunt Noreen. We had a great time and it was a beautiful day! Here are some shots of the day...

Miss Smiles... So cute hah?

November is here...

Halloween shots...



November is here. The kids have had fun making big piles of leaves and jumping into them! I am looking forward to a weekend away - heading to North Carolina to see a good friend and her family! I can't wait! While I will miss my kids and hubby it will be much needed break for me!
