Fall 2010

Here's one of Brinlie's best "smiles" for the camera!

This one's not too bad, if only someone was there to get Grayson's attention

This one melts my mommy heart! Scott teaches Brinlie how to skip rocks across the pond.

Every fall we enjoy traveling up to Mueller State Park to see the changing leaves and of course take some family photos. This was Grayson's first trip and he really seemed to like the atmosphere and being outdoors. They have a short little hike around a pond with informational centers for the kids. Brinlie liked lifting the flaps and learning all about the pond life. This trip the leaves where we normally take our family photos were all gone, so we found a new favorite spot. This one is down by a pond with great rocks nearby. We ate our picnic and proceeded to attempt a family photo with only a tripod in hand. The wind was blowing like crazy and the kids were just not cooperating. Brinlie was being a typical 3 year old and giving her cheesiest smile for the camera. Seriously, what does it take to get two kids and two adults to all smile and look at the camera at the same time? A miracle, I guess. That or a professional photographer to take your picture instead of a tripod and self-timer!
