What happens when siblings go camera happy?

Well I'm not sure you want to know. LOL.


First they take a nice, civilized picture,

then they decide that Bethany is in need of some love,

then, when you add a brother or 2 things can get just a little bit goofy.

AND THEN,when you discover the distortions, frames, filters and such all semblance of civility
seems to be completely lost................ buuuuuut..........I shan't burden you with such pictures instead I shall show you the ones that came out best.(in other words, the lesser of the weevils, if you know what I mean;))

Sisterly love

Thinking

My little sunbeam

Yours truly

Sister time
Soooo now you are forewarned of what can occur when you start taking pictures on your computer. Still, for the record, we had a blast.
I love you kiddos!!!

Too much love?

Is it possible to receive too much love? Hailey bug sure seems to think so.
Hope you all take time to show some love today.

Caleb's 5:30am breakfast

While we were in Indiana my poor, dear brother,

(who had to stay home due to school and work) sent me a text message to complain that he was slowly but surely dying of starvation and malnutrition. (Malnutrition being cereal and Ramen noodle soup for breakfast, lunch and dinner) So I, being the sweet, loving sister that I am, promised to make him his favorite breakfast when I got home. I should have known that Caleb is a person who will hold you to a promise, so this morning found me up at 5:30am making...


Cream Cheese Danishes!!!
Caleb's absolute favorite meal. It is also one that requires LOTS of prep. as I actually made the dough last night so that it could chill for 8 hours. Though it was very early it was nice to be able to work in a very quiet kitchen and see the day start, not to mention the sight of a very happy brother enjoying a delicious breakfast before heading out for school.

After Caleb had dug in

It was also nice to be able to use my new apron that I made a couple of weeks ago and which I LOVE!!!I didn't have a pattern so I made up my own and I am very happy with the result. Not to mention that the fabric is beautiful.

So here is a picture of me, resting after my labors. I haven't put a picture of myself since I got my braces, so know you know what I look like.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Note: These pictures aren't the best quality. I still don't have a camera so I took these on the computer with the webcam.

Please pray

Well we just got home yesterday from a weekend conference in Indiana and we were hoping to be able to rest and recuperate from the journey, but it would seem that God had other plans in mind. Almost my whole family is suffering from a stomach virus which Victoria picked up in Indiana, and since the children are NEVER selfish when it comes to giving their family the same illness, it has spread to my daddy, mother and Haviland. So if you could please pray for them to get better, and that the rest of us wouldn't catch it, I would greatly appreciate it.
