Little Gems

I have to say that I love the new picture I put up in my bio. That's my husband, everyone. Lovely picture, isn't it? I don't normally share pictures, but I love how our family photo shoot turned out, so here's a few pictures.

Me and Mark. Being goofy.

Me and my baby!


My little men!


Yes--the baby really is a stinker like that. Throwing fits when we're taking pictures.

Didn't those turn out wonderfully? Big thanks to Nicole! If you live in Arkansas, check out her website. She's fantastic.

On another note. I read another really great book last week. This book is called Offworld, by Robin Parrish. It's speculative fiction, kind of a sci-fi feel to it. I read the first chapter on a blog, and I was hooked after that. I had to have the book.

I was not disappointed! The premise of the book is four astronauts return to Earth after 18 months in space, only to discover that the planet is empty. Of all living creatures. No humans or animals roam the earth anymore, and the four of them set out to find out what happened.

But of course, their search can't be that simple. Turns out there's something left behind, and that something's determined not to let them find out what happened. It literally feels like the end of the world.

Except the menace after them is not natural.

I am very impressed with Robin Parrish. I've added his other published books to my 'to read' list. He implements an underlying theme of hope and belief in God in this thriller. Very well done. And his terminology--wow, he could've been an astronaut. Check out my blog on Friday, because if all goes well, I'll be interviewing Robin.

Really like the new picture. I can't see the family photo shoot though. I may have to add OFFWORLD to my very long list of books to read.

Tamara Hart Heiner said...

Can't see the pics, huh? Hmm. Maybe only I can...

Unknown said...

I can't see them either, even through internet explorer. I'm sure I'll get a lovely Christmas card, though...

oh, we found out yesterday while Eric was on call that he for sure will get a few days off for Thanksgiving. That means we'll be flying out to Idaho, since it is their turn. Sorry we'll miss you guys. But I can't wait til December!

Okay, I couldn't see the pictures at first but now I can, and so I can say your two boys are adorable, too! What a fun display!
