This and That

Back in July we took some more marketing pictures for Pristine grapes for Scott's company.  The talented Kate Burris took some great pictures in a very short period of time (you can find her at Kate Burris Photography on Facebook).  Kids were losing their attention span quickly, the weather was gloomy out and we were heading to the airport right after [pictures for our month long Europe adventure......it was just a little chaotic, but the pictures turned out great.

I love seeing these two together.  They have known each other since Preschool, but kinda lost touch until a few years ago when they were in the same class again.

 These two will be trouble one day :).  Just look at those smiles.

 This is the best :"natural smile" we can get from Evan

And here is one of the winners for the Billboard

Scott sent me a few pictures of our weekend trip to Branson back in August.  We spent the weekend with Grandma and Grandpa, went out on the lake and spent a day at White Water. The Lilipad is so much fun and a great work out.

Since Scott had never stopped for the giant ice cream cone at the Short Stop we decided to show him what it is all about.  It is definitely an experience.  All 5 of us could not eat the entire cone.

I have gone on a few bike rides with some fun ladies.  

Robin brought over Eve's old dance bag and Nora is quite proud of it.

We have spent another fabulous evening out on the lake.  The late afternoon/early evening time is my favorite.  It's been so hot and the water feels great.  It seems like everybody else has given up on boating season after Labor Day.  There is nobody else out there and the water is like glass....I hope we can squeeze in a few more evenings like this before boating season is over for us.

Hannah gets to walk down to the square with a friend every once in a while and she loves it.  She feels so big.  Yesterday she sent me this picture from Oberlee's phone.  They made a pit stop at the Five and Dime.

Hannah watched a friends baby for a little bit last week.  She was so excited and did a great job.  She really wants to start babysitting, but she is still a little bit too young.  She told me that I could come with her and she would give me 20% of the money she earned :)

So, for now we are working on getting some experience by watching friends kids for an hour or so at our house.
