Picnic with the Kiddos...

A few weeks ago, Ryan and Ashlyn wanted me to come with them on a picnic and have a photo-shoot.  Even though I have many pictures of Ryan and Ashlyn, I had never actually designated an actual "time" for them (for some reason, they think I am some kind of professional photographer, so they are always asking if I will "photograph" them. :-)) 

So we drove to the back and brought a blanket, the teacups, a few books, and just spent a few hours reading, having fun, and taking pictures.

Here are a few photos from that afternoon. :-)

I may be a little biased, but I think that I have some pretty adorable siblings.  Not to mention photogenic. :-)  Aren't they cute?

Have a blessed day!

All the Kids :)

Yesterday, I was reading some photography tips, and decided to try them out.   Ryan and Ashlyn had dressed up in their "country" clothes earlier that day.  So we decided to do a little photo-shoot.  We ended up taking pictures of all of us.  So therefore, here are all the Alexander kids. :)

Here is a picture of Ryan, it took about twelve shots to get this one.  The adorable wiggle-worm!

Here is Ashlyn.  The girls in the Alexander family all have green eyes, so when Ashlyn was born we were happy that the tradition would continue (A fun fact, all the girls have green eyes,and all the boys have blues eyes:)).

At the beginning it was just Ashlyn and myself taking pictures, after the boys saw what fun we were having they decided to join in. :)

Nathan. with his sky-blue eyes.

Trey,  at first he didn't want his picture taken.  I got him though!  Afterwords he is like "Hmm, not bad." :)

Trey even snapped one of me, I think it turned out well.  I hardly ever have pictures of myself.  I am always behind the camera not in front of it. ;)  Also, can't you tell that all of us have been blessed with freckles? :) Definitely a family trait. :)

Have a nice day!

Brr! It's Cold!

The Grasshopper Story

"We was ketching grasshoppers, and we was missing some. Ashlyn ketched one and it was good. Then we ketched one, but it had a baby on top. And the last one we ketched, we ketched it. It was perfect...but it cut in half. That it... Wait! And we going fishing. See ya! Ashlyn ketched one."-Ryan

This made me laugh so much, Ryan is so funny. These are his exact words, I love it! As I type this they are running around trying to "ketch" some more grasshoppers and crickets.

"Fee-fie-foo-fum! I smell the blood of an English...

...Cricket!!"-Ashlyn :)

"We katched one!! Oh Yeah!" -Ryan :)

Have a nice Sunday!
