Accidents Happen for a Reason.....


Just about 4 weeks ago, My girlfriend Meredith, her son Garrett, and  Jackson and I were off to see Horton Hears A Who at the $1 Theater. Before we could go we had to go feed Meredith's 3 beautiful horses. As we were pulling out of their property there was this Magnificent golden wheat field. I told Meredith at that time that I was going to do someone's pictures there.  The following Saturday, I got up bright and early,
 loaded Jackson up and we were off. 
The idea I had in my head for the photo was not coming to pass. I really wanted Jax in the field with a pair of overalls bare foot and holding a flag but finding a pair of overalls in the 102 degree weather was a bit harder then anticipated. So I settled for a Camo jacket from the DI and Jackson and I headed out to "The Field". Jackson really wanted no part in taking pictures at all, (which I was kinda bummed about but couldn't blame him.) So we only got a few shots and this fantastic photo (if I do say so myself) happend to be one of them.  
I Love it when accidents happen and the result is fantastic. 
I love this picture...Of all the photos I have ever taken  
IT is my favorite and means the most to me.

Bowling for Fun!

Ben and I took Jackson bowling for the first time in his little 2.5 years of life. We had sooo much fun! He bowled a better game than I did! We had bumper lanes (of course) and we all proved to need them. (especially Ben, though he wouldn't admit it)  The bowling alley had a cute little bowling ball that was only 5 pounds. Jackson would just pick it right up bring it to the line and push it on down the lane. (Which by the way was sometimes a bit painful because it would roll sooo slowly.) All in all though we had nachos and a blast. 
We will definitely be doing it again.

This photo is hilarious! Jackson is waiting for the ball to roll down the lane and hit the pins. You can't see Ben but he is standing exactly the same way!


There were so many good photos from our night out. 
It was hard to just pick a few.

And last but not least. This one is my favorite. I loved the little bowling shoes. 
They were cracking me up!
