Oh boy oh boy it's almost Christmas!

This is evidence of Hollis's first big boy haircut. He had his first experience at my Rat Bite Salon. The dogs could have warned him about the special signature rat bites all my clients leave with. He's a trooper and no complaints, well no complaints I can understand.

Hi Everyone! He looks too old in this shot.

Boy in the bubble.

Hollis is working on his words. His favorite right now is "whoa" and when something is really exciting he yells "whoa-ie". He is enjoying stomping various items he finds in the yard, this is quite entertaining.

I broke another camera and got it replaced last week. So if anyone is keeping count, I have broke two and working on being very careful with the third. All in one year. I am back to Kodak and it is much quicker, so I can get those action shots.

Hollis has no idea of what is coming in the next 2 days. It should be fun watching him destroy wrapping paper, what bits he hasn't already. We leave for camping Friday and I am sure we will get some great shots.

We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas full of hugs and kisses.

getting a shot

So getting one decent picture of the family is harder than I first thought. Hollis is way too quick and Jeremy refused to change out of his pajamas. This is my best attempt.

Towards the end of the session, see the protest from the little one.

Hi I look like a kook in this shot. The boys look a little nervous, mom is near the edge. You cannot see the death grip I have on them. I had to add it to the other failed attempts.



Evidence of Hollis and his speed. He is usually just a blur, so this shot is true to his nature.

Me and Hollis trying to get the camera just right on the tripod.

As Christmas nears, I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays.

Oh the joy!

We hope everyone had a restful Thanksgiving. We went camping for the first time in Hollis's life. It was so much fun we are going back for Christmas. Anyone want to come?

We got a new camera and I am in the process of learning all about it. I still cannot figure the video. Soon hopefully.
