My little model

Anna and I went out a little early before her Girl Scouts meeting to the mall.  She picked out this cute dress and hat.  Then we went down to this cute spot I found with an old "walking tree" (a tree that growns across the ground so you can sit on it, or walk on it).

She is so easy to photograph and is always so beautiful, but I'm biased!!

Anna's turkey day treat!

Watch out!  There's another turkey who's gonna try to steal it.  Swiper no swiping, Swiper no swiping...

Jaden's turn

 A rare occasion - Jaden let me take his picture for practice ;)

He's rockin the batman attire with a little Superman figure thrown in!

(Sometimes I think my boys would get along great with Hugh Hefner - they are always in their pajamas!)

A snapshot

This is definitely not "portrait" quality but I think its sweet.  It's very "Luke" and also documents a terrible little accident he had so we can remember to make sure it NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN!

I needed him to stand there and let me take some pictures so I could practice with my new lights - that's why the step up doesn't really match :)
I love that he's wearing his "muscle" spider man and his buzz light year shoes - huge favs!  and the best part is the pudding!  That boy can eat his weight in junk food - poor thing, takes after his mom and dad :(
Unfortunately, that's not just pudding on his face.  He's got a little burn on his chin and neck from an accident he got from goofing off with his brother.  Those two are so ornery when  they get together sometimes.  They are giving me grey hairs!!

At least he's supporting the Steelers...

Even if he's got his jersey on backwards...

The funny thing is that his pants are on backwards too!  Guess the rest of us didn't get the memo that it was "backwards day".  Or maybe Jaden is just a trendsetter :)

Lukey just being cute in his buzz lightyear costume (always some costume) playing with Jaden's leapster.

Anna's 8th Birthday

Yeah - I know, I am waaaaaayyyy behind!  Her birthday was over two months ago!!   We did celebrate though :)
Nana came to Texas for the holidays and extended her stay a few days so that she could be here for Anna's birthday.  She was so excited!  We are always very happy to have our family with us but especially on special occasions like this.  It was a real treat!
As per our tradition, we all went out to eat at the "fire" restaurant (aka - hibachi).  We have been lucky to get a hibachi restaurant here in Lake Jackson so we don't have to go too far.

The boys

The birthday girl at 6:43 pm - the time she was born :)

There we go!  hahahaha!

Make a wish :)

More celebrating back at home.  Have to have birthday cake!!!
