Shooting through glass / November Monthly Challenge (Blog Circle)

I am pretty far behind with lots of things in my life but I have been neglecting this blog for months. NO MORE! Let me kick things off with my blog circle. The topic this month was "shooting through glass". The first one is the glass that is in my front door. The other two are of the kids sleeping, and I am outside looking. Everyone in our circle should have already posted their November postings. I think I am the very last one! Next up is Mary. You should check out Mary's blog and keep clicking till you make it all the way around!

MOvember

Dancing with the kids

Notice how they don't talk during the dancing...just like the show.

Mattress Shopping

We are on, what seems like, a never ending search for a new mattress. The kids seem to find a sleep number mattress and made themselves right at home. Here they are pretending they were asleep. Millie was singing him "Annie" tunes. I was just giggling until the mattress lady forced me to take a picture of them. Pretty sunset over the Pink Pig.

Leaving NJ

She sure knows how to accessorizes! Who said luggage propped up in the back of a car doesn't make a good tripod? Sometimes one shot is all you need! Headed home

School Pictures

It sometimes tough being a photographer. Especially around school picture time. The school hired a photographer to come in and take pictures of all the children and I am sure she is a wonderful photographer. However when we got Millie's picture back, it was totally outta focus and really didn't show her personality. There is one other professional photographer/mom in Millie's class so we decided we would take it upon ourselves and get a pic that captured our kids. This is my girl that I know and love. After the deed was done, we had a great time at the park. Thank you Kelly and Karla for her adorable outfit :-) I love this little man more than words.... Millie's friend Amelia. Amelia's sister Mirium I'm so proud of Millie. She is having a great time at school and is doing so well. I can't believe how much she has learned in such a short time! Can't wait to see what the rest of the years brings!

Thanksgiving 2013

It's a good day when your day starts with a "SWOOSH"! Hanukkah They weight the same amount...it still amazed me that she can pick him up...notice his feet are off the ground. It was BITTERLY cold...but the fact that I can get 14 adults and 4 kids to look at the camera...thankful Thanksgiving is going to be a little different for these two next year! We can't wait!!! Painting Turkey Cookies Let the Turkey Bowling begin!! My favorite picture of the night! I have so much to be Thankful for...this wonderful family is a big part of it.
