Sedona

Every year Christian and Caleb go on a brother-in-law hike (it started 3 years ago when Christian had to get Caleb away to tell him to talk to Laura and not leave her hanging in regards to discussing their relationship :) ). This year Andy and Cooper joined the trip hiking Soldier's Pass (I think) in Sedona.

Too Cute!

I just had to post this adorable picture I took with Peter's camera today...

And the cool rainbow in our backyard. Wish I had time to grab C's wide-angle!

More Family Pictures

 Tirzah says, "I'm TRYing to be happy, but I think I just want to cry instead!"

 Tirzah is the dolly-lover. Not babies. She thinks babies are creepy- they actually move and cry and stuff. If this were Berea, the doll would be slung over her shoulder, being held by a foot. Oddly, Berea is more nurturing- she's the first to give a pat on the back if someone's crying. Tirzah just joins in the tears. :)

 Yes, they had been wearing matching pink shirts. Then T. got into my amazing Eden Salve medicine. Very green. Very oily. Pretty expensive. She's managed to get into it probably 5 times. Grr.

 Almost smiling...

Creepy.

At least everyone's smiling... :)

Outside and such

Just playing around with the old camera. Pardon the lack of focus in some of the pictures- I don't have the energy to sort pictures!

 Did I already post this? I can't remember. But I enjoyed the kids' creativity with these stickers!

 A couple of wild things!

 Elijah took this picture

A couple of snowflakes, taken by Anne

 Tirzah doesn't like sharing Mama first thing in the morning. :)

 A very Christmas-y looking Daddy, practicing taking portrait shots with 5 kids running around....
