Ain't he cute. He is such a sweet thing.









Cam, Jerusah and baby boy bump

Michael's oldest son Cam and his wife Jerusha. Baby boy is due in March 2009. Yeh I am going to be a grandmom. Crazy. We are all excited.


Aidan's fall during Family Pictures

Aidan was being a ham during pictures. Well he was running and fell on some rocks. In these pictures he is holding his arm. Later he said it was his ankle. I cannot remember what he said that got us laughing. He was tough and was able to keep posing for the camera.

our only trick or treater

Yep this is our doggie. He was a horse with a cowboy on his back. As you can see he hates having anything on his head. Michael and I did not have the kids this Halloween. So we went out to avoid passing out candy. We went to see Rocky Horror Picture show. Wow kind of crazy. Michael has been a fan of the movie for over 15 years now. It was fun to see people dress up and get so into it.
