New Driver!

There's a new driver in the house! And.. no.. its not me :-D. This morning Ty and I took "Joe the Jet Jeep" out for a spin, Ty's first official time in the drivers seat. I had an interesting time explaining "reverse" and "turn left" and "turn right." But it made for some good laughs on my part! The funniest thing would have to be that Ty calls "Joe", "The Jet Beep" not the "Jet JEEP!" Cramming myself into a space created for a four year old also proved interesting, requiring me to pull my knees up to my chest and lean over Ty... He didn't seem to mind. He managed the "gas" pedal and I steered some of the time, going up and down our alley, and all around the Knights Of Columbus parking lot. Ty also has an annoying habit of stopping suddenly about 20 feet away form something (weather it be a parked car or grass or a bush) and exclaiming "We can't hit the truck!" I have no idea how many times I assured him that we would NOT hit the truck and that I wouldn't let him. And that's how I spent this morning.... teaching a two year old to drive a Power Wheels vehicle. :-D

Just Another Thursday

Some of these following pictures represent me practicing my photography skills. This plant that we were given lifts my spirits every time I see it. Its just so bright and cheerful, and large and healthy, I have so many things to thank God for, especially flowers, pumpkins, and little brothers.

I'm really going to have to learn how to adjust the flash on my camera.
Ben is one if a kind.

Don't ask, because I don't know :)

Our Mae-Belle~ Yes, she is taking a nap in my 17 year old brother's pants that he threw on the floor.

Ty + A Lazer pointer

Needles to say, for some reason Ty didnt like the lazer pointer this morning. And to account for all the odd behavior, lets just say I wasnt awake yet. :D

A while back...

Every one who knows me is aware that I sometimes have a tendency to be extremely lazy. Now is one of those times, and I dont feel like hunting down my almost battery dead camera and its out of the picture cord, to upload some more recent pictures. So while looking for something I found this picture from a while back when we went to Beaver Creek State park with the Clarkes, in the fall when all th leaves were falling off the trees. It was tons of fun, even the part where I slipped on the stupidest rock ever (it was the rocks fult not mine) and got my jeans soaked to my rear end. It was cold.



Benjamin Adin, this picture reflects his personality so perfectly...



And Ty was just happy to be there.
