Family Pics

In August, my whole family spent the weekend together to celebrate my parents' 40th anniversary.  My sister, brother, and my gift to my parents was getting family pictures taken.  It's nice to update our family picture on our wall, which was taken when Jaymes was only three months old.  He's grown just a little since then!

 

I had the photographer take some pictures of just Jaymes since he had just had his second (!) birthday that week.

My whole family!  Four little boys UNDER the age of three!  Honestly, it was a disaster, and I am amazed we got a good picture!  The almost three year old refused to be in the majority of the pictures, another little nephew was just SO not happy the whole time, and Jaymes was scared to sit on Grandpa's lap during the grandparents/grandkids photo!

 The three granddaughters, all the same age!  They are the best of friends!

 I love this picture of all the grandkids!

Last night Isabella and I were talking about how God gives everyone different talents.  She told me that she thought God made me a "good cook, good cookie baker, good singer, good at playing piano, good at teaching piano, and good at taking care of people."  I asked her what she thought God made Daddy good at, her response - "Um (long pause), he's good at backing the vehicles out of the garage."

I couldn't help but laugh, but then I helped her come up with some more, because Daddy's good at lots of other things, too!
