kids say


Another edition of “kids say.” But first, an impromptu photo session of Kingston playing in the leaves at family camp…

Kai–“Daddy, your voice sounds weird…..you sound like Han Solo.”

Kingston–“Chewbacca is in the house of The Lord.”
 
Me–“Kingston, are you stinky?”
Kingston–“Yeah….sometimes. Sometimes I’m a robot.”
 
Kai–“A fly just flied into my eye so I said ‘fly, there’s no food in there,’ and then he flied back out.”
 
Kingston–“I need medicine…cause I’m crabby.”
 
Liam–“I don’t like pigs…because I don’t like ham.”
Kai–“Pigs don’t eat ham.”
Liam–“No, pigs are made out of ham.”
 
Liam–“Friday is my favorite day of the week because you get to eat fries!” (Friday=fry-day) 
*note: sadly we rarely ever have fries. But this should be a new tradition for Fridays.

apple picking (part two)


As I promised in my previous post, apple picking (part one), I’m back to share some of the pictures from Rachel’s camera. Let me just say how hard it was to narrow down which pictures to post. She took so many beautiful pictures that it was hard to not post all of them!
 
Also, you may notice that there is only one picture of our whole family together. We weren’t actually there for family pictures but she snapped a quick picture of all of us before we got started. When you have 4 kids, you stop expecting a perfect, smiley picture with everyone looking at the camera and you call it a success when everyone ends up in the same shot with no one crying!

Liam refused to eat any apples–he hasn’t liked them for years. But today he has changed his mind and decided he loves them.

I’m very thankful for a beautiful friend who has an amazing talent! I can honestly say that this was the least stressful photo session I’ve ever experienced with my children. We had such a fun day and (thanks to Rachel) we have some beautiful pictures to remember this season of life!
