We'll Plan Our Escape

I was prompted to use a few of our outtakes from our weekend photo shoot.
Back story: We live near the American Gothic house, and thought it would be fun(ny?) to use this famous landmark as a backdrop to our photocard this year.

Here are few* of the pictures we won't be using in our holiday card:

The eyes closed:


The Baby trying to make a break:

The using a pitchfork as a weapon while the Baby actually Escapes:



*as it turns out we spent an afternoon basically chasing** the boys around and wielded not a salvageable photo from this location.

**it was also decided that the afternoon as a whole would have been much more enjoyable for the adults if there had been wine. Mass quantities of wine.

Happy 1st Birthday, Baby

What a great year we've had with & because of this little guy.


He's added something to our family that I didn't even know was missing. Isn't that a great feeling? To know that you found something that was very much needed?




Happy Birthday, Little Dude.
