Hill Pic

Ok, just one more cousin and hubby pic.  They are so precious.

It's not just the "gag me with a spoon" sweetness oozing from them, that makes me smile, but the gorgeous white horse booty going No. 2 that I had to crop out just to the left.

Oh, yes It's childish, but .... BBBUUUU-WWWAA-HHAAA-HHAA!!!

Visit with Hill

I was given the great honor of hanging out with, and snapping a few pics of my gorgeous cousin, hubby and "baby" Lucy this afternoon.  The warm hugs and (local vino) were an added BONUS!

I couldn't wait to share this pic.  Note the muddy toes .... tromping through the mud for a Christmas card photo?  No problem!

I'd also like to point out that this is what Hill looks like after participating in a 5K earlier, today.  I don't look this amazing with a full 8 hours of sleep, a hearty breakfast and professional styling!

What do You Mean You Have a Roller Coaster in Your Yard?

A little more about our Thanksgiving at Poki Acres ... oh yes, there were cows!

There was not 1 ....

Not 2 ...

Not even 5 ....

BUT 7 little boys at Thanksgiving this year .....

And 1 very special baby girl named Lucy ...

And after the roller coaster rides, T-ball, hayride, "pony" rides and tons of food, all 7 little boys were T-I-R-E-D.  I think Lucy was wiped out, too.

Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving 2010 from Coop

Tortured the kids trying to get a Christmas-card-worthy picture this weekend while visiting my folks for our non-traditional Thanksgiving (hay ride, s'mores, queso and wiener roast.)

This isn't the winner, but thought it was so darn cute, and Coop was an angel through the ordeal.

Holden? Not so much.  Had to resort to .... I hate to say ... "toot" jokes to get smiles out of him, or the front side of him for that matter.

We hope everyone has a wonderful and THANKFUL week!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Mr. Beckett

I feel like B was left out of Halloween pics.  Hopefully this will make up for it.  Bee - U - Ti - ful boy!

Happy Halloween 2010!

Here are the last of the "kids in costume" pictures this year .....

Holden is super ticked about the cheesy inflatable wings.  Who can blame him?  They kept sliding up on the back of his head .....

No wings, all better .....

My sweet little bear...

And my sweet not-so-little anymore nephew....
