Time

You cannot dwell on the speed of time.  You have to learn to take it one day at a time.  Time is your most valuable gift.

Puddles And Gloom

Oh how I love puddles!  I stopped at Norskadalen today to renew my yearly membership there while Riley was at a birthday party.  It was a gloomy day but to my delight I found a puddle to explore in.  

Also came across these photos from Uncle Justin's wedding 2 years ago ... at least I think it has been 2 years now.  Time is unfathomable.

Halloween 2017

This year Riley decided he wanted to dress up as a Vampire.  So naturally Austie also wanted to be a Vampire as he loves to do whatever his brother does.  It was an easy costume to do and Jason and I decided to join in on the Vampire theme too.  Truly Jason was the best looking of all of us, he went all out!  We had fun!

Treasured Photos

I have been super busy taking photos of other people's beautiful families and after a while I realized how much I wanted to have some beautiful photos with my kids of my own.  They are only little and cute for a short time and I want the comfort of those treasured pictures when the youthful years are gone.  I would love to get some with Jason included in the near future but he had to work so that will have to wait for another day. 

My mom was nice enough to take our photos and trust me it is not easy trying to take photos of two boys who would rather be doing anything else but getting there pictures taken!  Gone are the days of posing for photos, lucky candids are my best hope these days.  Still my mom was able to take a ton of wonderful shots and I am so happy with the results.  I made a photo book for myself through Shutterfly and I am wrapping it up as a present to myself to open at Christmas.  What a treasure for myself, I'm so happy to have the photos!
