Kids

I'm a little sentimental right now about the sound of little feet. These little boys are at such a perfect age. J turning into a 4 year with little to no tantrums anymore (unless he's hungry, which shows he's growing into the testosterone filled guy that God made him) and C a curious 18 month old, pre-terrible 2's. Lots of laughter between the 2 of them when they are playing. This mamarazzi **wink, wink** tries to spy around corners to capture these adorable sounds on the video camera.

I started listening to Christmas music yesterday and heard one of my favs from the Statler Brothers (I'm old school with music). I decided to use the lyrics as inspiration for the picture roll......my boys, being well, boys!

trying to hide from The Mamarazzi...a true star ;-)

Hunting buddies at Cabela's

We spent one day last month bumping around on 4-wheelers on a ranch of a friend's out in the Hill Country.

Helping dad rotate the tires

I love his style, even while doing man's work :-)

sitting on it turned boring the other day. He gets this thing going so high when he stands on it, scares me to death sometimes

trying to climb it while "doing a trick". not quite sure what the trick was, but he scaled this 1/2 way up all while hanging off the side

C's favorite way to swing. you can hear him say "weeee" all the way from inside the house.
he will do this for a good 45 mins.

One of my favorite pictures of them. 

stomping through the soaked flower bed

Is there anything better than getting soaked and muddy?

My little savages

If it weren't for kids have you ever thought
There wouldn't be no Santa Clause
Look what the stork just brought
Thank God for Kids

We'd all live in a quiet house
Without Big Bird or a Mickey Mouse
And Kool-aid on the couch
Thank God for Kids

Thank God for kids there's magic for a while
A special kind of sunshine in a smile
Do you ever stop to think? or wonder why?
The nearest thing to Heaven is a child

Daddy how does this thing fly?
A hundred other where's and why's
You really don't know but we try
Thank God for Kids

When you look down in those trustin eyes
That look to you, you realize
Its love that you can't buy
Thank God for Kids

Thank God for there's magic for a while
A special kind of sunshine in a smile
Do you ever stop to think? or wonder why?
The nearest thing to Heaven is a child

When you get down on your knees tonight
To thank the Lord for his guiding light
And pray they turn out right
Thank God for Kids

And thank God for surprise gifts that you don't plan for, but He directs you to anyway............
