Black friday target commercial



I LOVE LOVE LOVE this commercial. I laugh everytime, even Corey laughed last night.

Lost Camera

Lost Camera.....Last seen Halloween night in the hands of a toddler with blond curly hair and bright blue eyes. If seen, please return to the Esquibel family who is in need of some updated pictures. Reward would be knowing that you are saving people from endless entries with no pictures.

Completed Family Pictures

I have been waiting patiently for our family pictures for a little over a week now. I am so used to the instant gratification from having a digital camera and looking right after. What did people do before digital? Oh yeah, they suffered like me not knowing what our pictures looked like. I am happy with how they turned out. I can't really control Hailey or her faces. Most pictures she just looks lost and has this blank look. But at least she wasn't crying. And then Gabe had to have his extra goober smile going, but if you know Gabe that is just him. I really didn't expect him to have a normal smile. Because for Gabe, this is normal. I can't wait to get some printed out and hung on my walls at home. I love the colors in the background.




This is my favorite one, besides Gabe pulling his extra cheese, and I will probably get this one printed out and framed.
What a happy and complete family we are.

Update

As I was reading my blog I realized that I forgot to update some news that I had blogged about before. Talk about leaving everyone hanging forever.

First item of business is that I got my ring back. It was a miracle in itself. The very next day Marshall's called and said a lady had found it in a shoe box as she was trying on a pair of shoes. I was so relieved. Corey made me take it in the next day to get it sized. It was a size 5 and we are getting it a size 4. It will be nice to have my ring snug and not have it wiggling all over the place.

The next thing was this whole medical episode that I went through. The ER visit the consecutive specialist visits and test. Blah blah blah, I was so sick of getting my blood drawn. They did another in depth ultrasound of my liver and it came back normal. So I am left with Gilbert's Syndrome which is what they thought it might have been before. You can read more here. So basically I just have a yellowish tint to my skin thanks to this and the fact that I can't over stress my body. Looks like I am stuck doing only half marathons, but I am ok with that.

And the last thing is that we are going down to Tulsa to my parents house for Christmas!!! I am so excited. I miss home and my parents and I can't wait to spend some quality time with them. My sister is also coming with her hubby and cute new baby as well. It should be a grand holiday season with lots of treats and memories. Now I just have to survive the 18 hour drive down. Should be easy enough right?

Cunningham Falls

This past weekend we decided to have family pictures taken. We haven't had any done since Hailey was born and I didn't want studio pictures again. So we enlisted a friend of a friend to come and do them. He does great work and we went up to a National Park here called Cunningham Falls. The leaves were so pretty and it was a crisp nice day for it. It turned out great and I am anxious to get the pictures. Corey took some great shots while we were just waiting around.

Before I get to the shots, on Sunday morning I did the girls hair in little buns all over. It looked so stinkin cute we had to get some shots in there. Isn't she just a doll? How can you not think that little face is cute? Even with no make-up smeared all over....

Check her out.....don't you just want to pinch those cheeks? Her hair has gotten so long and I can do so much more with it now.
Lexie was being a nice big sister and helping Hailey up the trails.
This is our friend Christy....you just gotta love her.
Brothers and best buds, I swear these two are always together.
Little poser, she knew exactly what to do.
Gabe was a little less enthusiastic, but we still got a decent shot.
Logan's squirrel smile, I swear he has such a handsome smile when he isn't trying so hard.
Daddy and daughters
mom and kids, we love this shot. (and yes I hiked up that trail with high heels boots on.)
Corey took this, reminds me of my high school senior shot...
The girls
What a great shot of Gabber....
Logan, now that is one handsome little boy.
This was Corey's idea, he loves those behind shots. You should have seen all the butt shots on his camera when I didn't know it.
She loved it outside. She played in everything.
We had such a great time and taking pictures imagine that. We will have to repeat this idea next time. It was well worth it. I will post the actual family pictures when I get them.
