Up the road from my parents house is a cute little country store called the Store & Moore. They used to sell gas when I was a teenager. I remember because my parents had a charge account there, and all I had to do was pump my gas and wave at the person inside before I drove off. I'd be in jail if I tried to do that at a gas station now days ;-). Well, now they have a little restaurant inside that makes the best burgers and has other specials through out the week. They always draw a big lunch crowd for such a little place. So all that to tell you that the store was the location for the kids photo shoot. It was fun and relaxed and the kids had a blast just being kids there!
On another note, it's been 4 months without Simon now. Somehow time has flown by, and I am so thankful for that. The kids seem like they have changed so much in the time that he's been gone. It's not fair that he's missing so much, but all this time away is really putting things in our lives into perspective. I'm thankful for the littlest things that I used to take for granted with him. It absolutely makes my day to get a 10 minute phone call from him, and to be able to Skype for just a little while makes my heart smile! Half way done with this deployment, and I can't wait for Hannah's welcome home surprise party that she's planning. I can tell you about the party because she doesn't exactly understand the concept of a surprise party - she told Simon she was planning it :).
