We saw the same place in Branson when we were there for Thanksgiving. I thought we had one here and I was missing out. Maybe we should open one!!

Carrie, we went to the one in Branson…there isn’t one in Oklahoma. It could be a fun date night, if you like building cars. They begin at $12.00 for a basic car and you can spend probably over $200.00 on customizations.

How fun! Where is ridemakerz? Would it be a fun date night place or is it geared towards kids only?

You guys look like you had a great time, I think we stay at that same place in Branson when we go. I never knew that you were such a young mother .

I got a Canon dslr for Christmas! I got it a few days early so I was able to use it during the holidays and although I’m just figuring it out as I go, the ones I took look so much nicer than Cmases past. Granted, I was in automatic mode the whole time, but I got an extra lens that makes the backgrounds blurry, and my pics look so much better. Nowadays, I’m all about the blur! Thanks for the excellent recommendations on your blog post about cameras

Hey the pictures are all great and yes you look 15 and I look like 90, just realized that family picture I had not ever combed my hair that day, oh well, love them all and love all my children, their spouses and grandchildren. Thanks so much for doing such a great job as you always do.

Jeanette, the yellow light is from the lights in your house. Look in your manual for how to change the white balance. It should have some options like tungsten, florescent, shade, outside, etc. You can set it to match whatever lighting you are using…

I’m so jealous of the great pictures, why can’t we carry you around in our pocket and you take ALL our family pictures!! I do have to say that the new camera made a big difference in my ability to get good pictures (yes, I took a lot in manual mode!) But, I still have a lot to learn, I feel like it’s just chance if I get a good one! I can’t seem to get the color right – most of my pictures seem to have a yellow tint. Happy New Year to your great family!!
