We went and ran some errands tonight after dinner, something we rarely do. The kids are even more entertaining when your grocery shopping past their bed time. Lots of giggles. I think Jon is asleep in the boys room right now with Bubba and Zekie, and I'm on the laptop snuggled up in our bed with little man Conrad. I realized I had not upload the pictures on my camera in weeks, okay actually over a month... I had 619 pictures, which for me (the daughter of a photographer) isn't that bad, however I haven't really been up for taking pictures over the last few weeks. I promise not post all 619 but I'm sure there will be a great deal of pictures.
I wasn't sure about posting some of these pictures... the ones from Andrea's birthday, but the kids worked really hard to make the day special. I love their kind generous hearts and these pictures remind me of their love.

oh bust! Grae dropped my phone off the banister of the stairs. It even split the battery! |
 |
haha silly boy - dinner is always entertaining I've learned to keep the camera close |
Okay - so a good deal of pictures but pictures are always better than another long post. Who can resist these cute little faces and attitudes?!
