November Pictures

I took this pics back in November. Wyatt and Ellayna's pics were taken quickly as we were on our way to eat at a Mexican Restaurant and were just waiting for Matt to get home from work. Matt's mom and dad were watching the little ones. A few days later I tried to get Eastin and KeKe's pictures. By then, as you can see, it had snowed some and was quite cold. KeKe was NOT interested in picture taking, and gave me that look as if to say you-have-to-be-half-crazed-for-making-me-sit-in-this-cold-for-a-picture-mmmoooommmm!

Matt made this stone bench a few years ago from scrap materials from an old school that was torn down a few miles from our house. Our house sits on a hill at the edge of a woods. If you look out the bank of windows in our living room which is at the back of the house the hill drops off. You can see this is where I took the pictures.

If you look past the woods in the picture of Wyatt and Ellayna, you'll see green and a bit of white. This is my grandma's field and barns. My kids call her "Great" because she's great and she actually is their great grandma. Anway, when I was a kid we would walk through the field to grandma and grandpa's house anytime we'd like. (The house I live in now is the one I grew up in.) How lucky was I?! Now my kids get to live right next to their Mamaw and Papaw, plus just a field away from their Great, too. What a blessing for them.....and me!
