A couple of throwback photos that bring back some wonderful memories for me...

Me (far right) and my siblings on Halloween 45 years ago...1970.  I was 13 years old.

Do these two bright-eyed, handsome boys look like money moochers?

Oh, but they are...and Gramaw and Papaw don't mind a bit!

I had the privilege of doing engagement photos for one of the cutest couples I know, Kelli and Brett. I've known Kelli since she was a baby...she's the little sister of my daughter-in-law Kara and the daughter of my dear friend Peggy.

Guess you could say she's part of my family...

Here we are...in the final days of October.  And what a spectacular October it has been!

Piles of gold...that's what it looks like.  

But it's really corn, millions of bushels of corn at a local elevator.

My man turned 60 last weekend.

6 0 !!!  That's a BIG number!

Brenda was one of my very first friends when we moved out here 33 years ago.

In fact, Kim and I often joked that our two families were the only young ones on the entire road.

I just had to share these handful of photos from Juni's photo shoot.

No, this is not Juni...but her sweet 20-month-old brother Krew, who happens to love it when Gramaw's got her big camera out.

Our precious little Juniper is 2 months old already!

My 18-month-old grandson Abram is the busiest little boy I've been around in a very long time. Like since his daddy Kyler was this age...

Trying to do a photo shoot with this active fella is, well...TRYING!  I got lots of pics like this one, of the back or top of his sweet curly head. But we did make an attempt to capture some photos of Abram and his 6-month-old cousin Theo (cousins on the Morton side of the family) one recent beautiful October afternoon.
