Tons of New Pics from Pretty Pictures!!

The new header is our offical family picture. They had to switch Nate's eyes out from a different picture because they were closed but it was the best of all the family.

Gavin wasn't in this picture when they took it we had him imposed.

This was the real picture we got of all three of the kids and Livie was being a stinker.

I love this little boy. He was like "oh I need to smile, okay" and we were done with all of his pictures in like three mintues.

Doran, my nephew, has a picture like this and I love them.

I titled this one "I hope they call me on a mission"
PresLeigh is the most stubborn strong willed child taker pictures of her can be really frustrating, but I always love the pictures we end up with.

This was suppose to be a picture of the two girls but with Liv in her normal picture taking form she would not comply. So we threw Gavin in just to get a picture.




I think she looks so much like Nate in this picture.




Livie is the hardest child to get smiling in a picture so I end up with a lot of pictures of her looking at flowers or not at the camera at all. She is a beautiful little girl who hates picture taker. She must get that from her Dad. All I have to say is I am so glad that the pictures are over and that they turned out so well. Thanks to Pretty Pictures.

Even more BIG NEWS Lisa Angel will be coming from LEMEA SALON and GIFT SHOP. She is bringing the most amazing hair bows I have ever seen. The big flowers for like PresLeigh's age are only $5.50 and they have seven to eight different layers to them. I got two littler ones for Livie's piggy tails and they were $3.00 a peice but they are still like five to six layers. I have never seen this kind of quality or this price so together they are amazing. Lisa will take custom orders and match to outfits. I had her do it with my girls holiday dresses and they are beautiful. She will also be bringing some jewelry and home decor. Everything is really reasonable. I'm so excited she is coming.

Hee Haw Farms

Hee Haw farms is such a super fun place to go. I tried to be picky on the pictures that I posted and after you go through I'm sure you'll think this was picky but there are so many things to do and we went with so many people we had a total blast!!!
The kids loved the corn box.
The farm animal ride.
This is PresLeigh and Tyler on the hay ride. This is on the hay ride it was so fun.
The hay ride took us to the pumpkin patch where we got four pumpkins.
Once we left the pumpkin patch and got back on the hay ride Gavin had a two year old moment. He got over it pretty fast and was back to the fun very quickly.

I am so proud of this little guy he is terrified of falling like he starts shaking it really is sad. But he was detemined to do it and he went down this big side all by himself!!
This is the first time Gavin went down after this we probably went like 15 times more times which sounds like fun RIGHT? Of course it was fun but he is afraid of heights so I had to carry him and climb up the back with Livie, or Tyson, and I got Doran to go down once too.
Mommy and Gavin going down on our tummies.
This is Seth going down the side with Doran and Gavin.
Gavin seriously just loves Brock and since Brock is such a sweet little guy he lets Gavin love him.

All the kids watching the pigs.
Doran playing with the hay.
PresLeigh was tired and hungry by the time we left she just wanted to go home.
Seth was trying to help me with Livie and show her the animals but she doesn't really like anyone but her mom and dad.
This is a big group picture of everyone who went except Nicole (sarah's sister-in-law) and her four kids.

PresLeigh lost her first tooth

Can I just say I am sooo not ready for her to grow up. Losing teeth is like a huge deal to a five year old and I'm sorry but I'm not ready for this milestone. The bottom tooth right next to the one she lost is pretty loose too so it won't be to long before we lose another one.

I was hoping that she would have waited until we took her five year pictures but it is my fault for not doing them on time now every picture til she is at least twelve is going to be a snaggled smile. And then I'm sure we will have braces on the way. She is so excited so I am trying to act as excited as I can even though my baby girl is growing up.

Does Gavin have Narcolepsy?

Gavin fell asleep in his room while throwing a fit.He went outside last Sunday to play in what little snow there was and when he came back in I wrapped him up to get warm and before I knew it he was asleep. He has fallen asleep on our kitchen floor after church, on the cement outside watching Nate mow the lawn, and has managed to fall asleep when we have friends over right in the middle of the madness. I was so sad I couldn't find my camera for the kitchen floor or the outside madness. Anyways I'm sure he is just a growing little boy who doesn't want to be left out of anything so he insisted on staying awake as long as possible.

PresLeigh's Royal Party!!

PresLeigh wanted a princess party but she also wanted to invite boys so it was a ROYAL party.



I couldn't believe this Evans mom dropped him off and I said "wow that's crazy he is going to be a prince for Halloween" Oh no I just whipped that up this morning he didn't have anything else to wear. This is a mom with a lot of talent. Apparently we wipped out the kids because at the end of the party when the kids were waiting for there parents they were pretty exhausted.
This is James A. PresLeigh, James, and Evan have a little love triangle going on! It is so stinking cute.

PresLeigh's 5th B-Day family party

This is her present from mommy and daddy. She has her own vanity for her hairbows, jewelry, and pretend make up. It was so awesome during the party Tyson (Sarah's three year old) was havinga blast just playing with it. I love it when they are still to little to know that they "shouldn't" be playing with girl stuff. While we were putting it together Nate was like should I be concerned that Gavin is playing with make up? I'm thinking come on it just because it's something new.

PresLeigh had her family party today and she won't get to have her friend party until October 11th I feel bad but with our schedules is was the only time. So we are letting her have two partyies for that reason we normally just combine them. She made out like a bandit we will be spending the next couple days writing thank you notes.
