Good Idea!

I think having a comfy chair in the back of your car is an excellent idea. I mean, why not? What if you are stuck in ridiculous Atlanta traffic? Just scoot to the back, pull out a good book and relax!

Our First Christmas

Kids Christmas '09

Logan realized all the adults were consumed with the Steal-A-Gift game, he took it as his opportunity to sneak some cake.

This photo speaks for itself. :)

They have morphed and are willing to take the other's life for a stuffed, square-shaped object that protects the skull! Hurry, someone do something!

The ever growing family!

Painting Lessons

Couple of firsts, painting with a palette knife and with acrylic.

The above three photos involve my first painting, obviously a fruit bowl, using oils and learning about shadows, reflection, mixing colors and adding detail. The bananas made me want to cuss!

It's interesting...

...how much adults continue to act like children. For example, I have interacted with many children with behavioral problems as a result of their immediate surroundings. This sounds like something negative happened to the child, but that isn't always true, at least that is our perception. They could have a new baby sibling or an older brother or sister could have started school. Regardless, when a child is caught up in change, sometimes their little hearts and brains struggle with digesting all the new stimuli and it manifests itself in tantrums, defiance, disobedience, etc. You want to know the interesting thing? Adults act out this way too... I know I'm guilty. Oh, goodness, we never grow up.

Few pics from honeymoon travels...

This photo does not do justice to the beauty of the day we experienced in Greenville, SC on our way home from Asheville.
Downtown Asheville.

One of the many tunnels on the Blueridge Parkway.

An extended exposure shot of the front porch of the Hill House in Asheville. It was an enchanting spot.

A sidewalk view of the Hill House after dark, also an extended exposure.

Wedding Video!

Introducing...

...Mr. and Mrs. Anderson!

I hate hair products.

After experiencing the trial run for wedding day hair, this is what I was left with once I took out about 30 bobbypins. I love how the stylist exclaimed, "You have such healthy hair! I'm not use to that, so we are going to have to 'dirty' up your hair with products." Nice.
