Kayla and I had grand plans for Adalyn’s first Halloween costume picture. We (Mommy and Daddy) were super excited about the prospect of driving our little girl to Smyrna Square while the sun sets to catch some golden back-light, creating the PERFECT atmosphere for our baby’s first costumed cameo. Adalyn would be looking oh so cute all dressed up in her owl costume and we’d capture some great looking images of her while mommy made her laugh by dancing, singing, and just acting goofy. But, as Mommy and Daddy tend to forget, WE are not in charge. Adalyn is. 🙂 Unfortunately she didn’t find her costume as cute and amusing as we did. Kayla was able to get Addy in the suit part of the outfit ok but the owl hood was a different story. We thought that since she doesn’t seem to mind hats that she wouldn’t have a problem. Boy were we wrong. After placing the hood on Addy’s head I had about 1-2 seconds to capture an image of Adalyn before she would protest in a very un-ladylike fashion. Oh well, I’m glad we did a test run before we actually packed up and rolled out across town. Well played Adalyn… You win…This time…
Hi Ted, Kayla, and Addy, it has been awhile since I visited the crew. WOW I was so surprised how Addy has grown and what a beautiful little girl she is. But, how could she not be beautiful with you and Kayla as her parents. I am praising God that everyone is so happy and filled with laughter. Even though you don’t hear from me very often, I pray for all of you every day. I am using my walker more and more, but still deal with a lot of pain, particularly in the cooler or wet weather. I love you and your family; keep updating the crew — it is such a blessing!
Thanks Juanita! We’re all so glad to hear from you. Thanks for keeping us in your prayers. Know that you are in ours as well! Please don’t be a stranger here on the blog. We love you too and hope to hear from you soon.
