Christmas Pictures~ Beach Pictures~ Our Family Pictures

Well, as many of you know, I LOVE to include a family photo in our Christmas cards each year. And, even though we have moved and things are just a tad crazy right now, I want this year to be no different!!! So, I decided to ask my friend if she and her husband would go to the beach with us and take our pictures. So, today was the day!!!



And, here are my two ~ they are cute, funny, caring, uncontrollable at times, sassy, smart and absolutely 100% wonderful!!!! They keep my life extremely interesting~let's just leave it at that. :)


The kids found a huge sand pile, so of course they had to have their fun on it before we left. They slid, rolled and jumped down it so many times that I'm sure they had sand in their underwear!!!

I really like this picture~ Cole is such a loving little guy. I am so proud of his sweet nature. He is all boy too.....so, I get shot with the fake guns in the rear end, get told how to spell "poop", can't help but laugh at his precious belly laugh when he says the word "poot" or "fart", am taught daily all about every Star Wars character that has ever existed and have to fight him to brush his teeth.....but, I love him! And, he's mine!

And, this is my sweet little Taylor. She is....well, let's see~ she is the prettiest little thing in the world, independent, outspoken, sassy, loving, she loves to sing & dance, and she is so full of energy! I tell people all the time..."if I could bottle up 1% of her energy, I would be great!!!" And, that is the truth. And one other truth is that she is the most wonderful daughter that I could have ever wished for. We have a relationship that I would have never ever imagined. It is awesome, funny and sometimes hysterical to most. It's great!!!!

And, here is me and my sweetie of over 10 years now. We have been married almost 8 years now. Yeah, just typing that makes me feel old!!


Ok, so by now, have you caught on to the fact that there is no family photo???? Well, there isn't!!! There was so much commotion surrounding the picture taking "event" that apparently we FORGOT to take a picture of all 4 of us!!! Can you believe it???? Well, I can...that's the story of my life!!! But, that's ok~ I'm proud of the ones that we have. So, now~ I have to decide~ find a way to take another picture of us all? Or, put one of just Cole & Taylor in the Christmas card. I don't know! So, I guess we will have to see.


Take care~ Love, Laugh & Love!

Your pictures are ALL beautiful! I've never been able to get a good family photo of us either. This year, I had cards made at Wal-Mart -- you can use 3-4 different pictures scrapbook style. It was the only way I could get pics of all the kids smiling! Good luck!
