Family Pics





Well what do I say about these. I just want to explain first of all that I was the one who set up the camera and and hit the "timer" button so I had a whopping 6 seconds to trek through rocky terrain to get in to the pose. Keep in mind it is very difficult in 4" boots. I recently twisted my ankle, so I have to baby it a little.
Just a side note about my ankle--it is fine, but once again, LUCKILY I have extremely sturdy ankles(some may refer to them as kankles) or the fact that I fell down 3 steps in the garage with a 12 pack of diet coke in my arms could have been devastating. I know you are all worried, but the diet coke survived, the box broke but not a single can was ruined. whew...I know, can you imagine me a diet coke short?
Back to the pictures...the kids actually had fun runnning up and down the trail, but I think next time I'll pack a good pair of hiking shoes. Do they make cute hiking shoes?

Nice pictures you guys! Gentry is starting to look Alanesque (that means looking like your brother Alan) his long flowing locks of hair. Your kids look darling and we love their facial expressions in all the photos.
Remember, don't be such a fiduciary!
PS- we also made a comment on your previous post.

Dude, Gentry, you look just like Ashton Kutcher did in that one movie with Cameron Diaz where they meet in Vegas after he lost his job and her boyfriend dumped her so they were both their on a pitty party but they met up and decided to kiss their worries goodbye and they ended up getting hitched and then realized they shouldn't have so they fight and fight and go to get divorced but right before they get divorced they hit the jackpot so then they fight over who gets the money and then they ended up working it out and it is really cute. Anyhow, I don't want to spoil the movie, but if you ever see it, Gentry looks just like Ashton in that movie. Cute Pics Guys.

Later,

Brock
