Default My self portrait and my kids too!

With all of the self portraits going up......I figured it was time to go get it. I went down to the town center to a place called Triangle Park to play with the kids and then returned that evening with the older kids. Mom was napping.....

The man behind pjflan7.....for those of you who remember.....I have healed up

Hi Patrick. I have seen your avatar but these are much more you. Nice to see who it is that gives all the nice comments on mine and everyone elses posts. You have a lovely family. Be sure to say Hi to them all for me. Yes, the self portraits are coming thick and fast, and it is nice to see. Thanks for sharing yourself and your family.

Jake.

Patrick, great to see you beyond the avatar! Howdy, friend. You have a very nice family. Tell them all I said hello, and good to meet you. I'm sure you're proud of all of them. Thanks for sharing!

Hey Pat, glad to see your healed up. I really like the second shot with the 2 little ones. Color, exposure, it turned out real nice.

Nice to meet ya Patrick and it's quite a family you have there. The two little ones are quite precious. And the older girls lovely. And a strong young man, much like his dad. So do any of them have the photo bug yet? I promised my daughter that when I get my D60 she can use my cool pix and she is so excited. She wants to take real pics like mommy. Nice family portraits!

Very busy....too busy...that's why practically all my pictures are done during my lunch hour at work! That does put a crimp into doing other creative styles of shots.

Yes, we are close relationally and getting ready to start the process of pushing the oldest out there to get started in life and Brianna will not be far behind!
