Hi, Mom! :)

Jordan took this picture ;) Ever since I can remember, mom has always tried to hide from the camera - whether it's a video camera or a snapshot camera. One of Dad's favorite things to do when he was taping our home videos, was to try to get mom on the camera when she wasn't paying attention and didn't know. So we have lots of cute videos of mom, and then all the sudden she sees the camera is on her, and she holds an afghan up over her head, or puts her hand in front of her face like she is in this picture. Behind her hand is usually a big smile and smuggled laughter, and every so often she'll peak out and give you an attempted "mad" face. (that must be where jenn got her "i really am trying to be mad" face) hee, hee! Jordan tried to take a picture of her for a long time while we were all around the table talking, but she wouldn't quit - so neither would he and he finally just took a picture :) To see her beautiful face, refer to my previous blog update about Julia's surprise birthday party. I have a picture of her there with Jason, Julia, and Grandma. Isn't she perty? I love you, Mom! ;) You're the best - even when you don't let us take pictures of you ;) hee, hee!
