Madison Camille Housley

I went to Jen's house one day and Maddi was outside playing and she was climbing in the tree looking all cute and I had my camera in the car (shocking I know!!) and she was being her usual poser self. Jenny and I were laughing our heads off because she was so serious about posing and some of her poses were hilarious!

Doug and Wendie

I was going through some photos and I came across these pictures of Doug and
Wendie and I had forgotten about them and I really liked them so I decided to post them. These were taken at a baby blessing at Monte's house and I remember how hot it was and we were all dying but how would it be to look so good in 100 degree weather?

Maddi and Elli

Once again here are the two girls that never miss an opportunity to get their mugs on the blog. I swear they are a mess!!

Sweet Jenny

I love this shot of Jenny. She doesn't like her picture taken and I am always trying to bamboozle her. We were at one of Cody's games and she was just sitting there so I sneeked (is that a word??) up on her and got a great shot. I love you baby!!

Coco and Luke

I love this picture of Coco and Luke. It was the 4th of July and we were all out on the lawn at my mom's house and it just turned out to be a right place , right time kind of photo.

Scab boy

Poor little Bodee took a dive a few days before the swim party so he has some battle wounds on his face. Susie and I tried several times to set up a time to take pictures of Bodee and every time we set a time and day Bodee would take another face plant and we would have to reschedule. We did that almost all summer!

Little Ashley

Ashley loved the slide in the water and I think she went down it a hundred times. She has the sweetest smile and cutest dimples ever. I think out of all the grandkids she might just have my little bit of mean streak and hopefully I can train her up to be a great prankster.

Mermaids

Christal and Taylor both loved the party and the water. They are both very good little swimmers and seemed to really have a great time with each other. We had to drag them out of the water when the party ended. Way fun day!

Brutha's

We had a free swim party at the Roy Aquatic Center for my work and the whole family came and we had a blast! Cody swims like a fish (I think he has gills?) and Ty was so cute in his "flippies" it was fun to show them off to the people that I work with.

Elli's first day of school

As you can see Elli's first day of school didn't go so well. She started all day kindergarten this year so it was a big change for her. Luckily things changed and she LOVES school and her teacher Mrs. Woods. She has a friend named Kadee and she likes a boy named John Henry because he let a fart in school.

Bodee-licious

These kinds of photos always turn out the best. The ones where no one expects a picture to be taken and you are able to catch the right shot of a child playing and you get the real expression and not a pose. Ryan was at the house putting in my new pathway and Bodee was with him and I was playing "trucks" on the lawn while Dave and Ryan worked. Hey by the way you two the job still needs to be finished!!! You're fired.

Maddi's first day of school

Maddi started preschool this year and she was so excited. She is so smart and loves to be with other kids. Jenny and Eric had to go to school with her the first day and I went over to take pictures and it was so funny to see them in the tiny preschool chairs (photos soon to be released) and covered in finger paints.

Splash Pad

The boys were gone hunting so the girls took the kids to the new splash pad to play in the water. The splash pad was a blast and the kids loved it! I even stood under the bucket o' water and let it fall right on my head. This is definitely a fun place to hang out.

I know, I know...it's been a while

I know that it has been a while since I have updated my blog but I have been a little busy AND I am another year older you know! This picture doesn't have one single thing to do with my blog other than it is a cool picture. Summer is gone and fall is on it's way out and that can only mean that winter is right around the corner and as bad as I hate July, I hate January worse! Why can't it stay October all year? Anyway I will try and stay on task with my updates....sheesh!
