Camera Crazy






So as most of you know, I don't have a camera. Chris bought me one years ago for my birthday and then he broke it in 2005 at a Seahawks playoff game with Christian. I used to be really great about taking and organizing pictures. Now, I SUCK! I am so thankful that I have amazing friends who do everything from helping me with my kids, saving us during floods, helping take tablesaws that have fallen on me off, bringing me flowers, making me cookies, helping out when one of my various family members ends up in the ER, and often times taking pictures of my children. Sarah has taken pictures of my kids on the first day of school for years, halloween, pre-k graduation. You name it she takes the pics. Nan took all of the kids first communion pics and Jeremy (Peggy's husband) has taken most of the sport photo's and a few others. I will often get a c.d. of a compilation of pictures from different points in my childrens life that I had almost forgotten. The perspective of other peoples picture taking is cool and they often capture their personalities better than I could. Jeremy sent a c.d. home with Christian (after watching the kids for Jury Duty. THANKS FURSMANS!!) The result were some fun pictures that I hadn't seen. The pictures of Jonah are from a Harry Potter party. Peggy bought Jonah book seven for his birthday and invited us to a midnight release party. She gave Jonah the first book of the night, which he will never forget. THANK YOU AGAIN! Then there are some pics of Christian playing ball in his full length cast. Chris let him play in a couple of games and he was so happy (not my favorite choice but better than when he had him on the roof in his cast). Also, there are a few pics from the boys at Ian birthday. Peggy and I took them to the Mariners and it was a lot of fun. Christian, Ian and Cooper were also bat boys for a Huskie USC game and I will be posting a couple of those as well. I often times forget why I love where we live so much. I keep talking about what a hard year it has been for my family but I would never had made it through without my "BEST FRIENDS" You know who you are.......Stop making fun of me!!!! God gave me this fantastic "collection" of friends because he knew I needed all the help I could get. If I haven't told you thanks lately sorry, but I do appreciate you!
