Surprise!

Eric took my computer to look at something last night, and he noticed a little green light was on at the top of my screen.  I had noticed, but wasn't concerned.  At this point in life about the only thing that send me into a tailspin is if the internet shuts down.  I'm embarrassed to admit it, but it's true.  You'd think the world ended.  I've heard that several other Autism-spectrum moms are the same way.  We spend so much energy being patient with our kids that a little thing can make you want to throw something out the window.  Not that it's an excuse for behaving badly...

Moving on...

Eric said, "Honey, were you using Photo Booth?"  Well, of course not.  I'm not into pictures of myself, why do you ask?

He asked because it was on.  The camera was still on, and here's what we found:


He added all the special effects himself! I have not touched any of these.  


I think that's Richie's "Mater" over Ryan's forehead up there..


Ah, I love the ones of the boys together.  <3



Here's where we see Ryan's favorite effect... 


The most precious cheesy smile, isn't it?  Now for the studious look...


A nice profile shot...


Peek-a-boo!!!




Sinking...




Here comes little brother, back on the scene...


Mmm... Daddy brought me a cookie!


Ryan and Richie... BFF's.  :-)  


There were 250.  Yes.  I said two... hundred... fifty... of these shots.  Sadly, I had to go through and pick the best ones so I wouldn't overload your processor.  LOVE these shots.  I think they may be our best souvenirs.  What a lovely surprise!

And now I know what those shutter sounds were from that night.  FYI... there aren't THAT many shutter sounds in Cars 2!

Thanks be to God for sweet surprises on a cold, rainy, laundry-filled day!

  1. I love this! I have to admit that I've also spent quite a bit of time on Photo Booth...really it was just procrastinating during my last semester of college...and then laughing hysterically when my mom and grandmother decided to get in on the action. :) Such sweet pics!!

    Love, Tara
