the past few days

On Wednesday, Dad and Mom took off for a conference that Dad was speaking at down in Effingham, leaving the five of us kids at home to fend for ourselves...methinks we handled it pretty well. Just as long as we didn't eat all the sugar, everything was fine...

Unfortunately, pictures weren't taken during the day, but in the evening we all headed off to get our haircuts...


Naomi's really enjoys CoN



Ruth enjoys waving her hands



I enjoy not having to shave



Emil enjoys the ample leg room compared to the backseat



while Grace enjoys taking all these pictures



except for this one...



slowly the mane is depleted



I played with these toys when I was younger than their age...yes indeed...we've gone to the same person for over 15 years



the layers are proven



what can I say...even gas stations have their moments



Thursday the Barnhart's and Evans' came down for the evening...you'd be surprised how loud we became with the Last Word



the ladies discuss details



then the center of attention zooms to Jonas



Taylor is the epitome of guitar



the gathering for Scripture-reading and hymn-singing


Next up...the 2009 Rifle Match...

Last week some photographers of central IL had the pleasure of getting together to do what they do best...and a big ol' thank ye to David Price for organizing this event!

a few of the results...









then some behind-the-scene shots...









and there you have it...here's to once again having grand time at the next experimental shoot!

Blessings to y'all, dear readers of mine blog!
