Just 2 more..

Emily took these 2. Love them both!

Um...is that Max eating on the couch and on the good china?!? Hey..it was Thanksgiving!

Update on the Folks

It's hard to believe they live in Korea. Here are a few pics from their ongoing adventures. Dad~I'm so glad you take good care of mom...she has a "I'm happy" glow!

The Birds

The Birds. How to start about this fabulous family?! Diane has quickly become one of my favorite people. From starting her family in Japan to making amazing jewelry in her basement studio, this women has Rock Star status with me! They're missing their youngest son, Jared (Peter's pal as well!), who is on his mission in Japan. So thank you Cami, Kyle, Ali & Husband (Matt?!? I know! How awful I can't remember his name!), and wonderful Diane & Alan for spending a fall evening with me!

*This is my favorite*

Joseph Noah Southerland

Welcome Nephew...

Long night...

Worth the wait.

The Southerlands

Just as the sun begins to set, you get a 30 min time frame of perfect, sweet, beautiful light. We missed it by 10 min! But what resulted was these almost moody, fall evening shots, that capture Joe & Emily's last moments of evening quiet.

More to come with the finished editing!

Oh, hey, you can still put your bets down for Noah's arrival date!
See the last entry.

The Count Down Begins!

Put your bets down Ladies and Gentleman!

Time to predict the arrival time & date of

Joseph Noah Southerland!

The game is easy: Each day from November 3 to December 1st has been divided into 3 shifts.

12:01am-8:00am (shift 1), 8:01am-4:00pm (shift 2), 4:01pm-12:00am (shift 3).

Simply choose 2 shifts from any day, or 1 shift from 2 different days. Make sence!?! Example: if I thought the big day was in the morning of November 17, I would bet number 43 & 44 in the comments section. OR, if the evening of November 20th and the morning of November 21st was my guess, I would enter 54 & 55 in the comments section. Got it? Don’t worry if you’re not a Blogger, just put you name along with your bets in the comment box. Questions? Leave those in the comment block as well. Emily & Joe will be monitoring the comments, and be able to answer any medical-ish questions you believe relevant to your bet. Noah's official due date is November 22nd...Thanksgiving Day!
