Great Days Like this!

So, we took a chance this am and headed out.. Rain coming down. We (okay Emma and I) checked out new camera lenses I am drooling for and a new flash, and then off we headed. I promised them apple pie after lunch if they were patient. So they watched their movie, and we headed off.

It really wasn't that bad of a drive minus the rain. Then we got there.. DOWN POUR!! The kids were great sports, and thought it was a hoot. I had seen this place that had "famous" sandwiches on their web site. Yeah, like I remembered to grab it this am on the way out the door. When we tried to eat lunch in one place and the waitress was so rude we left, we stumbled on the restaurant with the famous sandwich. I was so excited. So we ate like pigs, then had hot apple pie and hot chocolate and watched the down pour. On the way out, kids covered in garbage bags thanks to our great new waitress :) they begged me to do this. They laughed, giggled and had a blast. The guy was really cool. His camera was 1/2 of mine and he had to soft flashes set up. His printer and software are what made this photo. (not a bad enterprise). They giggled, and laughed.

So this may not be appropriate, but the kids were like mom, look.... it was so hard to get them to not laugh in this photo we just went with it. Also, trying to get 4 kids look at one spot at the same time.. Yeah, good luck with that. 3/4 isn't bad.
Emma laughed the whole time and kept saying, my gun is bigger than the boys!! It was hard to get them to make mean faces.. they were giggling so much. My only regret.. no photos with the garbage bags.. No way was I taking my 5th baby out in that down pour.. plus, I was soaked (no garbage bag) and didn't even want to grab my handy phone!
