Merry Christmas

Last night we ventured out and had the kids Christmas pictures taken.  Seems early, but next week Larry will be in Baltimore and before you know it, Thanksgiving will be here.  So I used the kids day off from school to torture them with family photos.


Thankfully this was the first of many pictures our photographer took.
Ruby was actually real cooperative until that flash went off.

Here is Ruby leaving the scene.  She just would not sit
for pictures after that flash scared her in the first few.

What did I tell you?  No Ruby in sight.
Can you see the blank spot where she should be.


Here are some fun shots of the boys.
Xander has grown quite a bit taller than Larry
so he had to be on the bottom for everything.
Poor Larry in the photo below.  He was beet red
because Ethan jumped right on top of him.
That is why we settled on a different tone.


My girls were trying to do the same pose.
Ruby actually loved this, but she would not
let Savannah look up.  She was such an
evil child last night.

Once we got rid of the other children, Ruby 
enjoyed her pictures quite a bit.  She loved seeing
herself on the screen and sitting alone on the
back drop.

Here is my little Ethan.  He fell and skinned his
nose last friday after trick or treating.
No family photo would be perfect without a 
facial blemish or two.

Here is the beautiful Bella.
Hard to believe this child would
not pose with the group!
She is such a prima-donna.



This is my favorite picture of her.
Don't you just love my $12 find.
I got it at Ross.

I hope everyone else has much more successful attempts at the family Christmas photos.

It's funny, but almost always the first picture ends up being the best. You're making me feel panicked about not being ready for Christmas. So much to do!!

So cute! I love how Larry and Xander often have similar facial expressions going on.

I dread taking holiday photos. Neither of my boys will sit still. It's torture.
Great pictures...I like your new website. Here are my favorite pictures: the first and the black and white of all three boys. Those were definite keepers! I would like to say that I am not stressed at all over Christmas pictures this year but really, what a lie. I always do this to myself, Brian and the kids every year. First snow...the kids are rushed out for the Christmas card shot. Sigh....I can't help it. Also, funny enough I am sitting here listening to Barney's Christmas special. I thought I avoided that purple dinasour but then I had Kaya and she LOVES him.

Girls Camp

 This year, Savannah got to attend her very first girls camp. Here she is with Morgan, another first timer.  Not sure how Savannah would have done without Sister Skroski. She showed Savannah the ropes and really took care of her in my absence.  Savannah all excited to leave. I can only guess what these last few pictures are. Savannah had a great time and Larry was there as a priesthood chaperone so she was not completely alone. This summer was a summer of firsts for my girl. She had her first girls camp, her first youth Temple trip and her first talk in sacrament. Wow!

Tennessee Adventures with the Hurts

 This summer, Ethan was able to go to Denzil's for 2 weeks. Of course he had a blast, and came back a new boy. He learned to ride a bike, and came home darker if that s at all possible. To drop Ethan off, we met Jason & Sheba , in Knoxville. Sheba's GPS found this neat park in rather a shady area of Knoxville. Emalene is a good model, always willing to pose when I say smile.  Here is my little Ruby in deep concentration.  Ethan did not even look back when he left me.  Gator with the big boys.  Emalene in her favorite color, and Ruby in hers. How cute are they?  A group shot at the drop off.  These monkey bars, kept the kids entertained for a while. Each one tried to make it across. Not sure any succeeded.  Here is Gator trying to reach.  Finally he found a sucker.  Look at him hang by himself.  Denzil looks very unsure about this. We thought we could get a group shot, but the wheel kept spinning and little arms got tired.  The two amigos.  A group shot at t
