Quickie family photos - the WHOLE crew

I have been so bad at my family blog lately and I'm feelin' the guilt everyday. I have bunches of pics to post and am finding procrastination to be so easy - shame on me!

In the meantime we have been having such a blast these past few days with my brother and his awesome family in town. Granted, it's a bit hotter than we promised them it would be, but their kiddos are lovin' the pool so we can't complain to much.

Per my mom's strict orders it was mandatory that family photos be done while they were here, so I played both photographer and photo subject. It was actually quite hystercial...I could only imagine what I looked like running back and forth from the camera/tripod to the family group. There were some kind people that stopped and offered to just click the shutter button for us, but as the crazed control freak person that I am I promptly shooed them away and said 'no thanks, I got it covered'.

Here's your sneak peek mom!

Well, in doing that, I always end up with the most random of photos... ENJOY! [taken December 2011]

Brody stories...

Here’s another Brody story for ya... A few weeks ago the kids put in a Wii game to play. Shortly after the game began Samantha calmly walked over to me at my desk and in a super low voice said, ‘umm Mom, Brody just said a bad word’. Mind you we have taught our kids that words like stupid, jerk and shut up are all bad words so I wasn’t sure what to believe or expect. I then said ‘are you sure it was a REAL bad word’...to which she enthusiastically said, ‘oh, I’m definitely SURE this is a bad word’. Well, not wanting to spoil the plot I told her not to tell me and that I will just have him tell me. I called Brody over and with an oh-so-cool-matter-of-fact-tone I just asked Brody what he said while playing the Wii game? In his equally oh-so-cool-matter-of-fact-tone he said [referring to the Wii game] ‘oh, I just told Sam let’s get in there and kick their ass’! I know the boy should have had a bar of soap shoved in his mouth, but really??!! How can you not chuckle...or in my ca...
