Say Cheese!

Santa was good to me (see above) I got a new lens... a 50mm! So pumped as this lens although tricky takes unbelievable pics! So I decided to try it out on my kids...of course!

Oh blue eyes...actually some what blue/gray these days!

Can you tell where we are yet?? What room of the house rather?

So cute, Ollie got a kids Camelpak from Aunt Sarah for Christmas, needless to say he has been well hydrated lately!

Not sure what was so funny, they are all about entertaining each other these days!

So very...

hydrated! Thanks Aunt Sarah, what a fun gift! Thanks Santa Matt for a great new lens to capture moments like this...in the bathroom!

looking forward...

...to spending some quality time with these two guys this week and next week. We just have to make it until Wednesday afternoon, I think I can!

Hoping your days are being filled with all things MERRY!

this little guy...

...made his entrance into the world just 4 short days ago.

Welcome Sweet Baby Ben!

So excited that I got to snap a few pictures of my friend Jacki's new baby yesterday. Oh my look at those cheeks!

Ollie's first school program...

Ollie has his first school program this past week at school. The kids in his class were so cute! Most of them (although Lainey doesn't look like it) had a great time. They sang Jingle bells with musical instruments!

Here is Ollie's pal, Jordan, rocking it out, so cute!

Then they sang "I'm getting nothin' for Christmas!" Started the song with much pouting, so funny!

More pouting!

It was a fun evening, hard to believe he's old enough to have a "performance!" We are enjoying the holiday time and are looking forward to our big Christmas break real soon!

pictures??

Sorry, technical difficulties!

Christmas parade collage...

It's been a while since I've put up a collage! We went to the GSO Christmas parade this past Saturday with our neighbors. Ollie and Molly had a blast, ate more candy than should have been allowed and even got to see Santa. SC wasn't real sure about all the loud noise but she was glad to keep an eye on her favorite babies, Ben and Jack, who were wearing Christmas matching outfits! It was a fun day!

Christmas card outtakes...

Merry, Merry!!! I took the kids over to Bicentennial Gardens the other day for a "photo session." Here are a few of the pics that did not make the cut. Note to self, although the candy canes where cute and Christmasy, they made a giant sticky mess! Wow, can Ollie make some funny faces!
