Karlie

Karlie's turn!
Karlie's school had a winter formal last night. 
Earlier in the week we took a lot of photos in her dress. 
Karlie likes sparkles.
 And this dress definitely had the sparkle and glitz.

 Karlie is beautiful
 inside and out.
Quiet, with a touch of
Sass!
She's a great big sister...very patient, and loyal.
Karlie, we are so thankful that GOD blessed us with you.
 Karlie rode to the dance with our carpool friend and classmate, Isabella and some of her friends that attended the dance as well. Isabella's  brother wanted to photobomb so bad, so I let him on one picture, but not the other..
Here they are ready for the winter formal, on probably one of the coldest nights in over 20 years.

Jolie

It's Jolie's turn.
Jolie loves the camera. I've been taking her photos almost daily for almost three years. 
 I can't believe that  she has been in our family for almost three years already. Seems like yesterday that she entered our lives, but yet it seems as if she has been here forever.
 She's spunky, full of personality, and loves singing and talking about JEsus.

 Got to love a pose.

 smiles, giggles, a tender heart... facial expressions, and eye flutters she saves just for daddy...
 Sweet girl
 JOLIE
 loves
 life
 and family, and the ipad  and Cinderella, and Jesus...
 we are so blessed to have this Chinese-American Southern-talking princess in our lives.

God blessed us indeed with you, sweet girl.

Shek

I am updating the blog, one kid at a time. Today is Shek's turn. He is our family comedian, athlete, and all around fun guy. I told him that I wanted him to come outside so I could take his photos for a blog update. He asked what to wear, I told him to put on his favorite athletic wear and come on. He said that was easy, because he was wearing it...he proceeded to walk like a run way model until I threatened to capture that on camera.

 He is wearing his Tim Tebow Jersey, A Mississippi State Cap and let's don't forget the nike socks. You can't see the nike socks in the photo, but if you were here, he'd be happy to tell you about the socks. I do believe that his socks were his favorite Christmas gift of all time.
 Did I mention he is a comedian? 

 This is his GQ look, or JC Penney Catalog look.
 Big Smiles...and a Deep Voice

 There he is....and he would say the favorite...I would say the favorite 3rd born.
 The Shekster a fan of many sports and teams...
 Auburn is probably his #1 favorite college team. Because you know, Dad went to school there. 

 He said get some action shots...so I tried to get a few. 
 He likes basketball, and football, but he loves Tennis.
 This year, he decided he wanted a MS State cap. I think because they actually had a good season, he decided he would support his momma's almamater. I pointed out to him that he had on both Auburn and MS State attire, He says," House divided Mom." 
We are not really divided. We say, War Eagle and Hail State.
But on the days that Auburn plays State
It gets loud in this house.
Shek was a good sport about having a little photo shoot for his mom. All I have to say is I need to do a post about you on the blog...and I usually get willing participants.

Zach

Over these holidays, Zach said, "I really need some updated photos for my website and facebook fan page etc. So what's a mom to do. It was the day after Christmas, I could not call a 'professional'...so we just went in to action. Karlie helped him with his outfit, 
we moosed his hair...etc
We rushed over to Billy's old yard and
I took my camera 
and took lots of photos.
When I grow up I want to take photos like Daniel Stancil, Lisa from Long road to China and CAM photography, and Doyle Wallace.
But in the meantime, enjoy
these  pictures. Now,  he has some new ones to update his website and facebook page.

 Maybe, I'll get one of those fancy cameras soon...
 and maybe a photography class when I get the camera...
 and then maybe photoshop
 Then maybe, I will have arrived. laugh out loud.
Hope you have enjoyed  these photos of my oldest baby. I will be snapping some of all my kiddos today.
