Almost Halloween....

Yeah. I couldn't get the kids to look at the camera at the same time. But we had fun carving pumpkins today! Notice Eliza's pink hair, leftover from the ward Halloween party the night before. They are excited for Halloween. On Friday they get to come to my work and trick or treat to all the patients. I dressed like a nun for the ward Halloween party and some one in the ward basically told me that it is an offensive costume so now I need to get a new costume for my work party. I might go with the Marathon runner idea that Jessica C gave to Mike on Facebook. Unless all you REAL marathon runners would be offended...

Family Photos


I try and utilize the skills I learned in a high school photography class to take our family photos. This saves money and provides us with quality time together. I can't pretend that I really remember anything from that class, but I try. These are some of my favorites.....

Here is Eliza telling Ian he can't say cheese, only she can.

Ian trying to shoot....

This lasted 2 seconds before Eliza wriggled free...

And Ian is wrestling with his sweater while we attempt to get the kids to look at the camera....

We did get some cute, usable ones, and I am getting them printed off at costco. Family photos in your hand in less than two hours! That's the way to do it. I was surprised at the afford-ability of printing your photos there. We are new to Costco membership but have liked it so far.

P.S. Eliza is sleeping through the night a few times a week! We went cold turkey with her "milky" at night and she is sleeping better every day.
