School Pictures

I love school pictures. I didn't always love MY school pictures, but I wait in anticipation every school year to see how the boys' pictures have turned out. I wonder if they smiled...(is it a real smile or a fake smile) or if their hair looks combed. Thankfully this year I have no complaints with their pictures (---Except maybe for the prices. For Tubbs I think I paid $25 for a class picture and one 3x5. Is that highway robbery or am I just cheap?)
Anyways, in last year's class picture Tubbs had his hand down the front of his pants like Al Bundy. I was mortified---kind of. I bet all the parents in class were telling their kids to stay away from the kid with his hands down his pants! :)

I think Bubba looks more like you than ever. How fun to have a child actually look like you. I can only dream . . .

Its so funny you say that because I don't think he looks anything like me! People always tell me Tubbs looks like me!

The boys look good. I especially love the hands down the pants. Great picture to use for his wedding montage one day. I think I am going to just purchase a class pic from now on and get my kids pictures done professionally so I can choose the pose. It gets expensive the more kids you have.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
