Quick Trip to VA

Wayne and I were able to take a quick trip to Virginia the weekend before thanksgiving to visit my Aunt on the Eastern Shore and catch a 49ers/Redskins football game.  Wayne has been a 49ers fan since he was a kid and has always wanted to see them play.  Grandma Amy and Grandpa Clark were so brave and took on watching the three little girls while we were gone.  They had a great time playing with Grandma and Grandpa. 

My Aunt works for NASA on one of the bases there so we got a VIP tour of the facilities.  It was so fun to spend time with her and enjoy the beauty back East.  It is one of our favorite places to visit.






My Russian hat came in handy for our walk along the beach.

See what I mean about the girls having lots of fun with Grandma and Grandpa while we were gone.
The girls were pretty excited to see us when we got home.  They thought their souvenirs were pretty cool too.

Fall Family Picture

We had some beautiful family pictures taken this Fall as part of a program to help educate about families and children with special needs.  We are so excited to be a part of this program and as soon as the website launches I will direct you there.  We just can't believe how amazing the pictures turned out.  Especially of our little Kaelyn.  She is a hard one to photograph, but wow, these turned out well.  The photographer/program head is Season Atwater.  We will be sure to have her do our pictures from here on out, she is so sweet and understanding as she has a daughter with special needs.
