a place to call their own

a much anticipated, and much played in gift from greg's parents to our children! they spend hours in here. I have neglected to post photos before 'cause I wanted to landscape and get the lights up on the front of the house. but those are priorities for me not for greg or the kids so here you go...cute isn't it?

nerd alert

p.s. I love the dollar store!

canola photo shoot

we caught the end of the blooms this year but these children are always glad to post in front of the camera lens...more when the leaves turn!

freckle power

I can never believe how many freckles crowd Jack's tiny face. He has the most. And is proud of it. In a competitive family such as our's is to have the most of anything is fabulous!! He has the most and his are the biggest!

teaching her young

moll loves to sit up on the counter when I am making bread. ran to get my camera 'cause she had her chin resting right on the lid but she wouldn't do it again...!

2 versus 8 at Loon Lake

we did a bit of a roadtrip to loon lake and the kids and I met up with candice and her four! five nites. chaos, campfires (though not enough of those) and kids! no one got lost, no one sank to the bottom of the lake and no one really wanted to leave...think we might make it a yearly event (if the stewarts will let us go back...) all eight - eight and under. grady, drew, keithan, annie, jack, samara, rhett and miss moll

excited to try skiing (not so exciting when they got in the water and got scared, perhaps next year?)

my boys enjoying a boat ride

phil with one ski! he knew what he was doing...could have been the fancy jacket?

trouble - our three big boys!

five boys - ages 6, 5, 4, 3, and 2! yikes...might be lots of trouble in a few years!

no comment!

Woods Reunion 2010

We had a wonderful, successful Woods reunion. I have hundreds of photos to go through and post and that is just overwhelming right now. I am so far behind on my blog it is unbelievable. So bear with me! I still need to post from JUNE if you can believe it! I kind of feel like Annie and Kayla look in this photo from the reunion!! CRAZY. Give me a few weeks or even a rainy day and I will post some. Those of you on Facebook, I posted quite a few on there so check those out! later...ms
