Funny Pics of Addi and John and Andi!

I just had a few funny pictures that I wanted to post from the last couple of weeks. Of course, they are not in a good order, but are just of random things. You'll see Andi teaching John a little colorguard flag action, Addi in her dress up "diva" shoes, and me trying to teach Landon and Addi how to pop the bubbles in packing wrap. They loved that and their faces were soo funny as they tried to squeeze them! Our week is not too busy, Andi has her end of the year band performance tomorrow night and then she tries out for colorguard this Thursday. This Saturday is Landon's party, so I'll be getting ready for that and working on some Three Pine Design products for the little boutique here that is carrying some of our items. I am looking forward to Landon's party. His actual birthday was the 23rd, so he has been four years old for almost a week, but does not know it yet. I thought it would be too confusing. He is ready to turn four this Saturday!!! Yeah! I am sure I have a big post coming up!! Have a great week!

Addi showing off her pretty shoes!!!!


Some bubble wrap action!! Funny faces as they were concentrating!



Andi being silly with my camera!



Maybe John should try out for colorguard!!! ha, ha!!




Addi was trying to walk all around in these shoes and they are a little big. I thought it looked so funny with her little legs! I love her "cheezin it" smile!

Three Pine Design and Mamamade Biz in Franklin, TN

Today Three Pine Design had their first craft festival and we had so much fun! The location was very good and we had pretty steady people traffic throughout the day. It was a lot of fun meeting all the other moms who also enjoy having a "creative outlet"! There was some really special and unique items there and if anyone is interested in supporting "mamas" I would definately check out their website link on my blog page. Also, if you are a mama who might like to be involved with Mamamade they do another show in the fall. We hope to do that one as well.

We had many people look at our products and pick up our cards. We even sold a few things as well!! Overall it was a great experience and one I hope to do again! I put a few pictures of our booth and products. It was our first time setting everything up in a booth so we learned a lot! Remember, if you ever need anything "baby or toddler" check us out as we are always adding inventory. Soon, we will be coming out with some new designs too! We love custom designs for particular themes, colors, etc for any of our items including blankets, party hats, bows, stationary, ribbon bow hangers, etc. I can also do coordinating sets of bibs, burp cloths, and blankets. Feel free to click on our Etsy link on our page and if you don't see what you want just e-mail me.

Anyway, just wanted to share our fun and exciting day with our friends!!!!

Griner Family Picture Time!!!!

On Saturday, we went and had family pictures made. Having family pictures made is always an adventure with little ones. Everything went very well and we were able to get a lot of good pictures before "meltdown" time ensued!!! Of course, it helped having jelly beans on hand for a little "encouragement" (much nicer word than bribery!) I was very happy with how they turned out. So, this post is a "Mom's brag time" about her beautiful kids, so bear with all the pictures.

By the way, we went to Portrait Innovations. It was my first time going there, but I was pleased with the result. It is not a very fancy place, but it was very reasonably priced and the photographer was very good with the kids. Also, by purchasing a certain amount of pictures, you get all the pictures (for us 120) on CD to do with as you please. That is great for any reprints or additional pictures on your own. Hope everybody has a great week!!

My oldest handsome son!



My four awesome kids!!



Our pretty and grown up Andi!




This is actually one of the poses I bought of John.



Addi was so silly with her pictures and you can tell was totally relaxed!! By the way, she was supposed to be sitting like a lady with her ankles crossed!





This is the pose I bought of Andi.


Landon posing with a goofy grin.


Addi back to being silly. I know I posted a lot of her, but she was entertaining everyone!





Landon's eyes looked so cute here, I thought.


This is definately Landon's "what'z up" look!


I loved this pose of Landon!


Landon took a little bit longer to relax and was really glad when we were done.



I love to get pictures of the boys and girls together. Here are my boys!



Here are the girls. Once again Addi was a little wild and you can see Andi trying not to get wacked by Addi's crazy head in the last picture.
