cowboy up

So remember how I said I was not a writer?  Let's just add "not a photographer" to that list.

I love to take pics of the boys, and getting the perfect shot isn't on my mind.  I don't have time for that because they are boys.  They Move Constantly!  I do focus on capturing whatever hilarity is going on so it can be laughed about later.  Or in this case shared with you!


This is my snuggleboy cowboy.  After seeing three other boys get all geared up for a battle of good and evil, this is what he chose.  I think he did pretty well!  Who says you can't shoot a bad guy with a water gun straight in his eye then kick him while he can't see!  The hat definitely makes him look like he means business.


What a serious look!  Get out of my way Mom!  There are bad guys behind you!

I know, I know.  You all want to see adventureboy's choice too.  He went kinda piratey.


Water Guns a Blazin'!

Psalm 127: 3-5 NIV
"Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward.  Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth.  Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them!  He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate."

a little more on Blessings

Let's just start with the fact that I am not a writer.  Please pretty please don't forget that as you read.

However, I AM one blessed mama who receives said blessings from the one true Lord God Almighty. 

I am blessed in so many ways with my family and friends who always seem to show up when I am in need. 
That would be a God thing.


                                                                              
I am blessed with a Mr. HotGuy Husband.  Oh yea, ladies, jealous is the word.  He IS other things than hot, but you'll have to continue to read my blog for more on that.


I am blessed with one adventuresome three year old boy who never grows tired of learning.  May he be blessed with this well into his adult years when he can ask countless questions of his wife and friends.  Maybe then I'll get a break?
  Maybe not.


I am blessed with my sweet snuggle bear boy who is one.  If you've ever seen this boy in person, then you know about the pouty lip.  May it never fade.  Well, maybe just for job interviews and his wedding day.
Can you tell I already have high hopes for my kids?
