Making Winter Family Memories

Triston is posed next to his snowman, Fred.

 

 

 

Looks pretty cold out there! Those are some rosy cheeks! Fun mommy!

 

Jodi  took a beautiful photo of my favorite bird in their yard. The cardinal is one of my “God loves me” signs. I really believe God sends the cardinal my way to say, “I love you, Linda.”

 

Jodi and the kids making cookies together~Fun mommy strikes again!

 

Chandler takes his drawing time very seriously. Can’t you tell by his face?

 

Chandler laughs in the face of danger. Here he is testing whether or not he can survive a horse stampede. He made it out alive, thankfully.

 

Dune Buggy ride! Chandler and Triston

 

 

Cousin group photo organized by Bryant~ Maybe a leader in the making?

 

Jodi, the photographer: “I asked them to make serious faces.”

Funny comment from Austen (on the left) written by his Dad:

THOSE ORNERY PAJAMAS!

Recently, Austen was trying to put on one of those sets of pajamas that is a one piece set, with a zipper that runs from the bottom right foot all the way up to the neck. Well, after apparently struggling with it for a while, he finally fumbled into the room where we were, still fighting the PJ’s in spirit though ready for some help otherwise. Sure enough, the pajamas were inverted, twisted, and inside-out–all three at once! Austen (obviously deeply miffed) blurted out:

“Dese PJ’s don’t WANT me to put dem on!”

Kids + Air mattresses = Crazy fun

 

When is my mind ever going to adjust to my baby having babies? I can still remember when our first-born child, Kristen was born. Yes, I can remember every single detail of that day like it was yesterday. Kristen and Dwayne are expecting child #5. I am going to be a grandmother again in June 2013! Yay!

Aww~It was a fun family time making memories~

I thought this photo was cute of our twin grandsons, Sterling and Chandler giving each other a great big hug. Children are such a blessing from the LORD! Have we recently told them so?
