Random Pictures

So, since I haven't blogged in a while there are so many pictures and things happening that you don't know about. So let me catch you up.

Cordell came home from Iraq and we were all really excited. Above is a picture of him and and his girlfriend Misty after he got off the plane. To say it was an emotional experience is putting it lightly. As the soldiers were getting off the plane the band started to play. Bobby Jindal was there to greet them and then they got to come over and see their families. Some of them had young children there ready to greet them. What got me though was as soon as Rene saw Cordell he ran up to him and wrapped his arms around his waste and just started crying. That just about broke me. I was crying like a baby and it wasn't pretty. Cordell we are so glad you are back home with us and so proud of what you did over there!

These are the first cherry tomatoes out of my garden. Aren't they beautiful?

How can you say no to this face?

Ben and Rene giving us their best crazy faces.

Rene holding the toy we got him for his birthday. Isn't he just handsome?

Noah with his birthday cake all over his face.

Jackson looking all happy because he just loves to sing Happy Birthday. Anytime he sees a candle or a fire he starts singing it.

Rene the day of his baptism. We are so very proud he made the decision to get baptised.

Ben made this hat at school and what is really going on in this picture is Jackson wanting it really bad so Ben is trying to hold him still while his daddy takes the picture.

Jackson cracks me up with his faces. The ones above are some of my favorites. He is so animated!

Jackson loves to play with his blocks in the bathtub and everytime puts them in a row.

This is one of the beautiful Alaskan Huskies that live next door. Jesse took such a beautiful picture of it.
