Fall

Poor, sad neglected little blog, it's been over two months since I posted! In the craziness of me starting back at work full time, moving to a new house, setting up the new house, and generally just adjusting to our busy lives, my blog has been one of those things that has fallen by the way side. :(

But, here's to new beginnings and getting back to routine. Tonight friends of ours came over to visit and we went to a park to take their family pictures. I wanted to get a few of our kids at the same time. It was a bit of a gong show, eight kids running everywhere. By the time we finished up our friends' photos, my kids (Julie in particular) were kinda dirty since it had rained a couple of hours earlier. But I managed to get a few cute shots. The photo of Jack kind of amazes me, he looks so old and grown up. sniff sniff. I want my kids to get older, but I don't. I think they should all stay around 7. A little more independent, a little sassy, but generally still loving and cute and innocent. I definitely want to remember this stage of our family. Julie is getting a little less challenging and things are fun around here, for the most part. hehehe
