Picture This

Because I can’t figure out how to make my own customizable blog header for wordpress, I don’t have a bunch of cute pictures of my family on my blog page like some of my friends do. And in looking through the old blog, I realized that I don’t post that many pictures of the family. Eek! Not that I want to overload you with pictures or anything, but I thought I would just throw up a few–just for good measure. Ok, that sounds bad. I’m not “throwing up” anything. I’m “posting” a few pictures.

Here’s some pictures from our last vacation, as that seems to be the only time we take any pictures of all seven of us together.

Notice how my teenage son is not really smiling, but just trying to have a pleasant look? That’s about his standard now. I don’t know if it’s just not cool to smile anymore, or if he doesn’t like having his picture taken.

Here’s Ryan with the kids. This was at the Venetian in Las Vegas, right before the camera died. Notice my cute Natalie who ended up carrying my purse for me? That’s how she chose to carry it, so who am I to complain?

Ryan and Paige outside the Belagio. We aren’t the spring chickens we once were, but thankfully we still love each other.

Here’s another picture from our SanDiego trip. You know, the kind where mom makes the kids like up against some boring backdrop and pretend that they are having fun?

So there you have it. Some pictures of the kids, the hubby, and even of me. Not that I’m trying to brag or anything–oh, who am I kidding? This is my blog, and I can brag if I want to–but I think they are pretty amazing.
