Freezing!

Oscar and I are pretty wimpy when it comes to the cold. Good thing we have each other and warm blankets to cuddle with during these brisk fall mornings!

Blaze

Blaze is Brandon's dog. They have a special bond. Whenever we come to visit Blaze is so happy and walks around like this:

Family Reunion at Grandma Hiner's

         On our anniversary we had a family reunion at Brandon's Grandma Hiner's house.

We had lots of good food, but the best part were these pies!!

                                                    Here is Grandma Hiner!

                         Brandon's Uncle and Family drove all the way up from Vico, Kentucky!

                                       Brandon and his cousin's baby.. so tiny at only 7 lbs!
                                               Brandon Michael and Braden Michael

                                It was such a hot day, the swimming pool was very well used that day!

Here is baby Xander. He is getting so big!

                                    How Andrew spent most of the day... a typical teenage boy.

                                                     Xander and his Mama

                                           Cute Carson! He is so good with little babies!

                                                 After all that food, swimming and fun.. this is how we all felt!

Happy One Year!

Here we were a year ago.

                                   Here we are today. Even Happier and even more in Love!

New Camera!

Brandon gave me an awesome new camera for my birthday! We had fun taking pictures all weekend long! This is the first picture I took with my new camera.... Isn't Brandon so cute?

Pretty soon Oscar became my model.

He was scared of the flash at first....

"Are we done taking pictures yet..."

"I'll just go to sleep!"

Oscar was glad when Riley's family came over so that I had new people to take pictures of! Here's Easton with his Star Wars toy!

Brady and his awesome hair!

Then Dax and Baby Brother came to play!...

This picture of Brady was just too funny not to share!

Sweet Jaylee! I think I need to work on focusing...

                                              Dax and Jay playing together so sweet!

My camera is a Nikon D80. Brandon also gave me a tripod with a flash trigger, a new camera bag, and a program for the computer to edit pictures. I am excited to learn more about photography and to blog more with better pictures! :)

Happy Birthday!

I had a great birthday this year! We woke up early and opened presents from Brandon( a sweet new camera) I met my mom dad and sister for lunch. Then my mom and I got pedicures. Then we met everyone at my mom's house for a birthday dinner and cake. Mom, Jess, Shayla and I stayed up late and went to the late night showing of The Help. We laughed, We cried, We hurled... ask Jess!


Here I am with the traditional "Green Stuff"

I had two birthday parties this year, one with my family and one with Brandon's family Yummy chocolate cake with Brandon's family!

Opening presents with Brandon's little brother, Carson!

They gave me a reading lamp to read after Brandon's gone to bed...I love it!
