Some of This, and a Little of That...

At the beginning of September, my family had Family Pictures taken.
Details:
*Photos taken because, well, it's awesome to get everyone in a photo together to see how fantastic we look...or don't look. Whatever. But mainly they were taken because my brother Devan left for the MTC a few days after the shoot. All members of my family will not be together again for 4 years. (Allen will leave on his mission before Devan returns.) Oh the sweetness of it all. I love missionaries.
*Photos taken at 7:00 a.m. - wow. Not to worry - we had a large bag of candy that kept SOME of the children and ALL of the adults happy. However, that bag of candy did nothing for our frozen toes/fingers/ears/noses/cheeks.
That's okay. Family pictures are totally worth it all!

Here are SOME of the photos...

Our family:


EVERYBODY (except for two unborn babies...one in November, one in April - and no, neither are mine):


My parents and siblings:


Dad, Mom, and my Grandpa Fowles:


Grandkids...(Oooohh the cuteness):


And finally, Mr. Studly and myself:



There you have it...well SOME of it.


Now...
Also in September, Cam and I went on a cruise. WHAT?!?! Yes, we did. And it was AMAZING...most of it. We especially loved getting OFF the gigantic titanic-like ship.
We were gung-ho and picture-happy. We were NEVER going to forget this trip. Never, Ever. Picture-HAPPY I tell you.
Well, you will not get to view the plethora of pictures we took....we have them NO MORE. Sad story. We lost our camera while on one of the islands - the LAST island of the trip to be exact.
Therefore, we will not be viewing those pictures either. Ever. I hope somebody in the Grand Turk is enjoying them. No - actually, I hope nobody is enjoying them. I hope they are erased and forever gone. Instead, I hope somebody is enjoying our camera and it's picture-taking abilities.
aaahh.
On a happier note, we do have exactly 27 photos from our under-water camera that are not yet developed. Once it is developed, you will get to see an itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny part of our cruise. And I'll tell the Cruise story then.

So, there's a LITTLE of that.

And, finally....

Aydrie is potty trained. It took about 5-6 days. Awesome.
Now, if we could only get her to understand that no diaper does NOT mean bare bottom...all day long...
