Inspiration!

Okay. . . I have been a total slacker with this blog buisness. . . A friend has inspired me to at least add pictures so people can keep up with our famous family at least in some way! She is doing a 365 picture blog (taking pictures of her cute kiddo every day and posting). . .I may try to do that soon . . .but for now (since the kids are all sleeping and probably wouldn't appreciate a flash bulb going off in their faces) I am going to start adding old pictures from my archives. So hold onto your seats and take a journey back in time with me. . . um. . . that is if I can remember how to upload pictures. . . !


To begin. . . .here are some pictures from the summer of 2006! Yikes they look like babies!!!

Kamryn and Anyssa riding

Corben and Anyssa riding

Kamryn and Eva hanging out on the fence

Kamryn shaving Joe (I think every father/ daughter should have one of these pics)

Joe and the kiddos in Albequerque

Joe and Corben checking out the butterflies in Albequerque

And now on to the summer of 2008 in New Mexico

My beautiful sister, Tawny

Corben, deep in thought. . .errr. . . more likely deeply engrossed in a video game

Kam

Gramma Autry

Chloe, up close and personal!

And now we jump in the time machine and zip back to San Antonio. . .Januaryish 2008

Pawpaw, Kamryn and Chloe

Pawpaw, Kamryn and Chloe. . .I think Chloe is giving them what for. . .wagging her finger and all!




Um. ..ok so obviously my blog is way too complicated for me . . . hang in there and don't get too dizzy with all the time jumping, but here we are at Christmas 2007!   Errrrrr.  .  . Make that 2008 . . . otherwise Chloe was making an early apperance!

Corben and Chloe . . .opening and apparently eating the gifts!

OK and now rewind again to April/ Easter 2007. . . we took a camping trip to Almost Heaven in Manvel, TX and Nana and Pawpaw came to join us. . . I think Tawny was there for a bit too but managed to avoid my camera!

Corben was a fishing fool!

. . . and this was the catch of the day!

Corben snuggling with Chloe by the campfire

Bathtime for Chloe in the camper sink!

We teach them the fundamentals of camping at an early age. . .marshmellows (or smashmellows as she calls them now) are a MUST!

Chloe hanging out poolside

Movie star!  Look at that pout!

Joe working diligently to do something with some fishing type thing. . .

Kam's catch of the day!

The gorgeous Nana and Chloe

And now some random photos from circa April 2007

Corben ready for his baseball game. . .yeah that is not a look of pleasure on his face. . .he got a bum coach and we didn't even make him finish the season :(   When the coach is yelling at 9 and 10 year old boys and using language that is inappropriate, the principle of "sticking it out" is thrown out the window!

Chloe bright eyed and bushy tailed.  .  . or maybe just startled by the flash???

Chloe hanging out happily in the stroller at a ball game

Well, with a baby this cute you can't just take one pose!

Chloe sleeping peacefully

Chloe sleeping, sucking her thumb. . .a rare occurence (now the pacifier (yaya as she later named it) was a whole 'nother bag of beans!!!). . . Might I add she is covered in a blanket my Gramma made for me? Tawny?  Gotta love sturdy baby gear that survives the years, especially when it is made with love. .. awww!

Whimsical Kammi-Belle

Corben's name on the sign outside of his elementary school. .. 100 reading points!  Woohoo!

Grandpa Martin and Chloe hanging out at the house between softball games

OK.  I should stop now. . . everyone's alarms are going off and I have to make sure they get up and ready for the day!  Plus I just tried to add some more pictures and had about 20 selected and hit the wrong button and didn't feel like going back to select pictures again ;) 

Please stay tuned!  More pictures to come in the near future! But for now, that's all folks!  Peas and carrots!
