Hi No!

As we were finishing gift opening tonight with my parents, it started to snow. Ally and Dylan were having the best time standing in the glass doorway watching the snow fall (and getting their grubby little hands all of over memaw and papaw's front door) together. Ally would yell, "Hi No!" and Dylan would just grin and clap his hands. So cute!!

Cutest 1 Year Old in Town!

In addition to Christmas, we have something else to celebrate around these parts...today is our nephew and Godson, Dylan's, 1st birthday!! I cannot believe a year has gone by already. Seems like just yesterday that my mom called to say Laura's water broke early Christmas morning and she was in labor (Dylan wasn't due to arrive for another month). Dylan is an absolute joy to be around and one of the cutest kids I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I am so proud to be his aunt and Godmomma. Happy Birthday D! We love you and look forward to celebrating with you tomorrow!

Pigeon Roost Farm

Today we went to a WONDERFUL place called Pigeon Roost Farm. It was a lot of fun for the kids and adults and a great day to spend with family. I have never seen so many pumpkins! We had excellent weather. The skies were beautiful and the air was crisp. Perfect fall day. I highly recommend this place, if you have never been. It is a bout 30 minutes east of Columbus and a nice little roadtrip. It is the perfect fall fun!

Caution: Crazy mom (aka: Me) yielding camera took a TON of pictures, so don't be alarmed by the length of this post! I love fall pictures...the colors are amazing. Enjoy!

Picture Perfect Cousins

A few weeks ago, we took Ally and Dylan to get pictures taken together at JC Penny. Sure, we have a GAZILLION of them that I take on my camera, but we had not done the "professional" ones yet and since they are both growing so fast, we thought this would be the perfect time to do it.

It can be pretty challenging to get a 14 month old and a 7 month old to both cooperate at the same time and although these are not my all time favorite pictures of Ally, I still think they turned out cute and I am glad we had them done. Dylan's OSU pictures are classics...boy knows what's important in life! :-)

Here are some of my favorites of the bunch (okay, so there are a lot of favorites...I guess I like them better than I thought :-))...

And, here are some that just made us chuckle a little (and a couple that made me wonder if my child has a little bit of a devilish side to her)...:-)
