Our trip to Dausett Trails with the Royals

Spud!!

Hit me!! I'm wide open! (you only have one more shot Lisabeth!!)


Should I hit you Laura? It's COLD out here!!

We never knew he was so dramatic....

Erik

Erik and "his" bareback pad. :) He had absolutely no problem with me cinching it up or anything!!! Sure he walked forward the first couple of times, but when he stopped, I released the cinch, so after about 3 more times he just stood still and let me cinch it up!! He was fine walking around with it on his back too, so....Pretty soon now, we might introdue a saddle.

Pics of Sierra

Some pictures of Sierra.....

My beautiful boy. :)

Erik and I after playing the "Catching Game"

"Put your nose on something" version of the driving game#3. *Says Erik "But Mom, the camera is SO much more interesting than a plastic bag!!!"*

"Say What?"

"A little to the left please....ahhh..."

A pretty good head shot of Erik, if you leave me out of it, that would be great. :)

Friendly game#1....he loves to have his head scratched! :)

Some more pics taken week before last.....
The 3 musketeers...soon Tori will join their ranks and it will become 4. :)

The Little Girls.

The 4 youngest...Tori isn't quite smiling, but was before. She was saying "chweeeseeee!!!" Twas deafening, having 4 little kids yelling "chesse" as loud as they could. :) They have very good lungs, I must say.

Tori is adorible, I think. :) She wouldn't look at the camera. *rolls eyes*

Everybodys "rear ends" as Mama put it. :)- I kinda like it. L-R: Jesse, Daddy and Victoria, Lisabeth, Eriel (the dog), Christopher, and Rebekah.

Daddy and Tori.

My turn. Unfourtunantly for y'all, or it might be remanants of YCTAPOMS in myself, there ARE no pictures of just me, so you'll have to settle with group pictures. :)

Victoria and myself. This picture was taken by Luke, so I had to crop out a headless Lisabeth, and a pouting Bekka.

The girls, Bekka, Tori, Lisabeth, and myself. (taken by Jesse)

Christopher is going to kill me, but what's the fun in life if you don't pester your younger brother once in a while?

Like Grandfather, like Grandson. I can't believe Grandpa let Christopher spike his hair but he did, and this is the result.

A benidiction? No. He's illustrating a point for Mama. With his eyes closed. Really and truly he was.

Last one. He didn't know I had taken these pictures, or he would have deleted them by now. :) Again, it is YCTPOMS.

I think this is the best picture I have of Jesse. He is as tall as me now. :( Actually I'm glad. I hope he gets at least an inch taller than Christopher (Who is about 6'2"-4") just to take Chris's ego down a peg. >:) *bad Rachel* :)

This is a suprise pic I got of Jesse. As you can see, he was not too enthused with the fact that I got a picture of him, and threatned to delete it. *Rolls Eyes* *Down with YCTAPOMS!!!* But Jesse, don't you know candid shots are the best??? :)-


Now he's hiding from me, and Luke's trying to help me out. Luke succeded in pulling the fake coon-skin hat away BUT.....

Jess grabbed something else to hide his face before I could take another picture. >:/ :)-

Hannah pictures..... most of the pictures I have of Hannah are from her b-day, the only time of the year when no one but my parents can say NO to picture taking. Hannah has been infected with the disease called "YCTAPOMS" (You Can't Take A Picture Of Me Syndrome) and I attribute my Mother as the carrier (Sorry Mama, you can't delete this. >:) ) Ashley had/has it, I had it, Christopher has it, and Jesse has it. Hannah has decided that any time I take a picture of her I have some evil intention of posting it on the internet. >:) I personally believe this disease does not manifest itself until the 9th year as all my sibs under this age LOVE to have their pics. taken.


See what I mean? I was in the process of taking her picture when she purposefuly turned away, and all I got was the back of her head. Incidentally, the sun turned her hair bright red in this pic. :)
