New family pictures

My friend Tiffany just took some family pictures for us and I think they turned out really great. We went to my family's old farm land and Tiffany was loving all the run down buildings. My great grandparents used to live in this little old farm house so that makes the pics even more special. This is a super long post because I wanted to post a lot of them for my sisters to see so here goes...

Andrea said...: Jeanette, those really did turn out so great. Thanks for posting so many so we could get to see them. I love them all..i especially dig the one of your fam in front of the milk barn, although I am with Jalinda, it is sad to see the giant gaping hole in it! Weird. But still the nostalgic value of those pics make them all the cooler. Nice work. And good work having such cute kids and such a cute family! Love you!; October 18, 2009 at 12:56 PM
wendy said...: Ugh! See I knew I should have bought that crazy 8 sweater jumper. I love it, and everyone else looks great too. Crazy how fast time goes by though. I was trying to teach my kids "Annie I over" the other day. They didn't get it.; October 18, 2009 at 3:20 PM

Some of my favorite things. . .

Vacations! Relaxing on any warm, sunny beach is my ideal spot.
A clean house that stays clean longer than 2 minutes. Is that really possible?
Trying a new recipe that actually turns out, tastes good, and that the whole family will eat. MIRACLE!
The Changing of the seasons. The first spring picnic in the park. The first summer day at the pool. The first drive to look at the leaves in the fall. And the first winter snowball fight.
The sound of my girls laughing and playing together and the sound of "Mommy I love you."
Finding a really good book that I can't put down for days or nights. (Twilight series anyone?)
Date nights with my hot hubbie. Especially if he plans it and arranges the babysitter.
Girls nights out. Catching up with girlfriends or sisters is a treasured experience.
Sleeping in on the weekends while Brandon gets up with the kids. What a great guy?
Feeling energized (more like sore) after a tough workout.
Finding a new cute outfit for a great price. Can you say bargain shopper?
Freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and any other baked goods.
