Budding Photographer!

So Zander got a hold of my camera yesterday and here are a few of the 24 pictures he took! He thought he was pretty funny!


My mom came and stayed with us for the weekend...it was so nice to have her here, I cried when she had to leave. Zander had fun with her too! He is such a ladies man! PS...isn't his new haircut soooooooo cute!?!?!?

Count your many blessings!

Today my little family was in a pretty bad car accident. We are all ok, but a bit shaken. I have been pretty emotional today...but in a good way! How thankful I am that we all walked away with nothing more that a few bruises and sore muscles! We were headed south on Middleton road when a large black truck went through a stop sign without seeing us. We hit him going the speed limit which is 50mph. Normally collisions at that speed do not end with all the passengers walking away. Our car is pretty trashed, but we are all safe. Today I am thankful for the kindness of strangers...for the family who invited us in from the cold and gave Zander a doughnut to help him calm down. I am thankful for the man who stayed till the scene was clear and then offered us a ride even though he had been headed home to his family. I am thankful most of all for a loving Heavenly Father who spared us from any real tragedy today. I can't stop kissing and hugging my two men today! How thankful I am for them. I am thankful for all of you, and once again, I am being reminded how precious life is! Mitch's dad said it pretty well today. " You can always buy new cars, you can't buy new people!"

Fun Day With Zander

Zander and me hugging! He is saying CHHHHHEEEEEESE! Man my son needs a hair cut!
We will call this the leaning tower of Zander!
Zander loves to put the little blocks on one...at....a...time!
Once again...CHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESE!
I am not sure what this one was all about, but I thought it was funny! I especially love the left over lunch on his face!
