ten things thursday is back!



i stopped these thursday posts during the holidays but have decided to bring them back!! and today's ten things thursday post is really a top ten list. i was looking through my photos from 2009 and decided to pull out ten of my favorites that i hadn't already shared here. now this was no easy task because i took and saved over 4000 pictures in 2009. so here they are in no particular order....enjoy!

this is a favorite for several reasons....i hardly ever get a photo of the two of them both looking at the camera at the same time....this photo reminds me of the horrible hair cuts we had to give them because one of them got lice and i couldn't handle the thought of little critters running around their heads and only being able to use the lice shampoo once a week....it reminds me of a time when they could both fit in a target cart....and it reminds me that i had just told them "raise your hand if you want to go to mcdonalds for dinner"....we always play that game....



sunflowers are my favorite flower and this one was grown in my aunt kathy's garden last summer. i love the details and the bright colors in this photo....



this is a favorite for obvious reasons.....i can't look at this photo and not laugh!



i took this photo in march 2009 when michael and i visited washington dc. we went to arlington national cemetary in virginia and watched the changing of the guard ceremony at the tomb of the unknown solider.



this photo was taken at the north carolina zoo in asheboro, nc last spring. michael, blake and their cousin kacey were watching the sea lions swim and play. i love the colors in this one too.



this is my hubby...sitting on the beach in south carolina during our summer vacation....



blake at the fair in october. he was so excited to be riding all the rides and i snapped this picture while we were riding one together. i love all the busy stuff in the background and his bright blue eyes shining with excitement.



another one of blake playing in the pool at our resort in myrtle beach. he loved the pool and could play for hours in the kiddie pool with his little cowboy horses.....



i snapped this photo of michael during one of our visits to the state capitol in downtown raleigh. he looks so grown up in this picture.....much older than five....



another photo i snapped during our trip to washington dc. i took this one as the sun was setting and we were starting out on a nightime bus tour of the city.....
