Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas from our home to yours.  May you ponder the true meaning of Christmas this year and live all year with the knowledge that Christ came to forgive our sins.  There is no greater gift than that!

For to us a child is born,

to us a son is given;and the government shall be upon his shoulder,and his name shall be calledWonderful Counselor, Mighty God,Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

Until next time...

All Grown Up!

So, as we spend our first day of Christmas vacation just hanging around at home, I thought I'd finally post those photos of Alexander's 9 year photo shoot that I had promised.  Since it was such a nice fall/early winter, I was hoping for a nice day so that we could do some of them outside.  It was not to be.  This was one of the few bits of cold weather we've had.  However, I did discover that the winter sun shines nicely into our master bedroom and I really think that these worked out great there.  The wall colour even accented his shirt nicely!  Anyway, here they are...

I think this is my favourite one...

And, of course, he wanted one by the Christmas tree (the lighting wasn't as good there!)

Until next time...

My Dashing Boy

So, as is my tradition with my boys, it was time for Evan's birthday photos.  I'm still trying to figure out the best way and place to do these and so we did a little more experimenting.  It was a beautiful day so we just went out in the yard.  Evan is just so photogenic that I can't help but get good photos.  He does have a little trouble with squinting when it's so bright out but these really turned out wonderfully.  Here are my faves.

Stay tuned for a post of Alexander's.  They are done and waiting their turn, too!

Until next time...
