**candid shots**

A few candid shots from our Thanksgiving weekend together! Emma and Marissa absolutely love Brandon! Missa is playing hand games with him while he is letting Emma climb onto his shoulders! i love this photo...i wonder how he can see with Emma's little hands covering his eyes as she tries to climb onto his shoulders?? Doesn't look like it is bother him though...he loves the two little girls and likes to play with them! So if we ever need a babysitter, i guess we know who to call!

Brandon and i thought perhaps we could lay down on the floor next to each other and finish watching the movie everyone else was viewing...we soon had company! Emma maneuvered her way between us and rested her chin on Brandon's back and finished the movie! And Marissa came over with a mind game she wanted to play with Brandon! i was *just* a sister that day and since they see me every day i must get boring because they didn't pay me too much attention...they had eyes for Brandon! But he didn't mind at all!
Shasta's fiancee, Jon, was here for Thanksgiving as well. Well, both Shasta and Jon went to his mom's house for Thanksgiving dinner, but then came to our house for "socializing" time and dessert! Colter really likes Jon...they can talk about heavy equipment and pickup trucks and that just thrills Colter! i think in these pictures Shasta was trying to bug Jon with sitting on lap...she usually doesn't just go up and sit on his lap...unless it is to try to bug him! They are always playfully harrassing each other...they know just what to do or say that will get the other one going!! You know you are at our house when you look closely at the photo and see the stray foot sticking up just in the frame of the camera in the right hand corner! There is always someone who is trying to "get-in-the-way" of the camera to bug mom!
Dad and Lisa...sitting on the couch together! i liked the photo so i thought i would include it!
