Josiah and Victoria's Birthday Party - Swim!

Josiah had a joint birthday party with our good friends' little girl, Victoria.  They went swimming (which never gets old for kids) and had lunch and cake at our house.  I hope you enjoy the pictures!

HAPPY FALL!

Just a few pictures of our kiddos in the fall.  Some are from Devine's Cornmaze.  Micah and Sammy had a blast, but Jo was sick and couldn't go.  Kyle, the Super Dad that he is, took them all the next week with a neighbor friend and I stayed home working.  They had fun, but we forgot the camera!  So there's a pic of Jo blowing out some 6 year old birthday candles!
HAPPY FALL!
Where's Sammy? 

He liked this pumpkin!


Micah liked his "little pumpkin"


On the hayride...


He's how old!!! 6!


So this is a funny one, Kyle did a great job carving pumpkins with the boys.  I took this on the timer with the boys.  I was entering a contest to win a really cool Kelly Moore Bag (best camera bags on earth:) 
So I didn't win, but I LOVE this picture:)

Gatlingurg, TN trip - Part 1

We felt very blessed to be able to get away on our first
"Claunch Family Vacation"  Our parents and church family made
this trip possible and we are so grateful to them!  Here's the first part of
the family fun we had...

On the way to Gatlingburg!

We had to take a pit stop at Build-A-Bear...
The boys had never been and we surprized them!  They were so excited when we walked up
to the store and told them they would get to make a stuffed animal.
Micah picked a horse that barks (above is the "barking" mechanism that he picked to put
inside his horse)...love that kid!
Jo and Sam picked a dog that barks.

Getting the loveables stuffed.

Giving them a bath.

 Jo picking out clothes for his dog.
Yes, they actually have underwear for the things!
He went for the camo shorts.

All of us outside of Build-A-Bear with their new friends.
Coming next...outdoor fun!

Favorite picture of January 2011


I shot this picture of Sammy last month when we had a good snow. I expected him to turn from the snow falling on his face, but instead, he made this adorable expression.

I entered this picture into a photo contest called " i heart faces ".
It's called Flower Wonder and the theme was "innocent wonder".
I took this of Jo at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens and the kids
really were in wonder over the gardens, they were beautiful!
