What we do when daddy's on the road

This and that

ILLINI!!!

G is not in a picture taking mood lately. Hope that changes by next Saturday we have a family photo booked. Her giraffe pants are cute though.

Jack is not digging on his lion Halloween costume. So we have been putting the mane on him and then throwing him in the air in the hopes he will grow fond enough of the thing to wear it on Halloween.

G also then wants to be thrown into the air, poor daddy.

Birthday photos!

When Nathan asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday I said get a nice family photo. I think we got a couple. I really wish I had remembered to take off my sunglasses in this shot, but oh well!

I love how the kids are smiling at one another in this shot.

The many faces of G!

Just a quick shot of my new bird house.

Jack's 1st hair cut. I actually held him while he got the hair cut. He was not to sure about the woman cutting his hair. This was just a photo op after he was done.

Some pretty flowers from the farmers market.

Well I got one of them to look at the camera.
