My little photographer...

It's only a matter of time before Maeryn knows more
about how to work my iphone than I do... 
she has definitely mastered how to use the camera.
(well, at least Johnny's face is centered)
This is one of my favorites of the two of us so far,
great picture Maer! 
I managed to steal my phone back for a few seconds,
so I could catch one of the two of them together too. 
BFF's!


Sleeping Angels



Apple Picking @ Eckert's Farm

We recently spent an awesome fall afternoon at Eckert's Farm.
There were so many fun things to see and do!
Maeryn's favorite was the pony rides! 
and of course, feeding the goats. 
Johnny's favorite was... oh wait, he slept the whole time! :-)
It's so nice to be able to spend this time together. 
Who knew... this girl loves apples! 

They were a perfect apple picking team! 
He'd point one out and she'd reach in and get it for us. 

The wagon ride was fun too! 
We ended the day with corndogs and a barnyard comedy show.
So much fun and we can't wait to do it again next year!



Clanton United

This Fall Maeryn has been practicing soccer with the Clantons.
Clearly, she takes it very seriously!
Coach Justin, giving some pointers. 
GO Team! 
I must say, it's kind of nice to sit back and just watch.  :-)

1 Month Old!

Actually, it will be one month tomorrow, but we will be out of town, so here he is!

Does it get any better?

Although there are moments (too many to count) when Maeryn clearly wants
nothing to do with this kid and probably wishes he would go back
where he came from... there are also moments like this one.
Perfect, amazing, breathtaking moments.
This little boy has totally stolen our hearts.
I wish I would have gotten a picture of them in the car a couple of days ago...
They were both passed out in their car seats - holding hands!  Melt my heart.
And then yesterday, I overheard Maeryn say the cutest thing ever to her little brother.
I was doing laundry and left the two of them in the family room together,
when I walked back down the hallway to check on them,
Maeryn was hovering over him in his swing and she said, 
"Johnny, someday we are going to be married!".  Adorable!
She is BIG in to princesses right now and happily ever after and all that...
Usually she tells me that Daddy is Prince Charming and she is going to marry him someday!
So... does that make me the evil step-mother?
