Week 4 Texture Photo

This is my grandson!  He is trying desperately to get his mom's attention.  The background is actually a 'keep the deer out of the garden' fence, but I like the 'texture' it created.  Obviously, he is teething, too! 

Family Sports Day!

This is our family cheering on the Vikings.  Yes, they won on Sunday, the 17th, but this was actually a close Vikings/Green Bay game that the Vikings won.  My husband is on the left. Then it is our 2 sons, our future son-in-law, one of our daughters and my husband's brother.  My mother-in-law was there, too - that's who my brother-in-law is looking at.  The boys' faces you see are twins and I love their excitement!  Can you just imagine the noise they are making!  I don't even have to watch the game  - they all let me know what is happening by their reactions!  For more family fun, go to I Heart Faces!

Anticipation...Snowball Ready!

This is my sister's grandson - taken December 26, 2009.  The family all met at her lake place in Bemidji, Minnesota for Christmas and then got snowed in! We had 3 great days of snow and family! It was beautiful and warm enough for great snowballs! Brody wasn't very good at making snowballs - he had his big brother's mittens on - but he did try catching them!

"Best Photo Face" Which one is the best???

I Heart Faces is celebrating their 1 year anniversary with a 'Best Face Photo' challenge. First, I wasn't sure if they meant only one face for the photo or not. Then, it had to be in Dec or Jan, so that narrowed it, but I still had so many to pick from - with the holidays, and all. I had such a hard time picking one, so I listed some of mine that I did find interesting in this post. A couple of them have glare on the glasses that I haven't fixed, yet. Feel free to comment on any of them.


December 26, 2009 - Lots of snow and fairly warm, great for snowballs - ready to catch one?

January 1, 2010 - My grandson and his 'Digital Camera Smile'. My daughter says he is so used to people asking him to smile that this is the face he gives you! Then he wants to immediately see the picture in the camera - then he laughs, but you don't have the camera to capture it! 

December 29, 2009 - Kids being crazy! The one on the left just got a new 'St. Louis Cardinals' hat in honor of the one on the right finally making it to the 'Major League Team' for the St. Louis Cardinals and the one in the middle just got engaged to our daughter!

December 26, 2009 - Has he 'gone to the dogs'? This is what happens when you are snowed in for 3 days - you go a little crazy!
December 29, 2009 - 'I got a Viking Hat for Christmas! I'm so proud of it!'


December 25, 2009 - son and Father


'Happy' - Daughter and Mother


December 25, 2009 - Little Brothers!


December 29, 2009 - Big Brothers!

December 27, 2009 - I was taking a photo of my mother, but look what I captured in the background - didn't even see it until looking at the photo later. Some kids just never grow up!
