THESE are my kinda kids

And they are, they are my niece's and nephew and oh man do I love these 4 smart, kind, loving, beautiful, thoughtful and funny nut jobs!

The last time they had a family photo of the 4 of them was waaaayyy to long ago so this past 2019 Canada day long weekend Bailey (big brother) asked if we could take an updated photo of them...

Mm? Pardon? BAILEY asked!!?? What??? lol

He sure did!! xo

And we couldn't think of any place better to take the photos than the back yard of their dads house. So we did just that!

Of course we were having so much fun taking photos as Auntie La (me!) is a nut job just like them so we giggled and laughed the whole time!

But then this little series of photos happened...baaaahahah I love these SO much! If I HAD to choose favorite photos..it might be these..oh but the last one of the three girls is pretty magical too...good thing I don't have to really decide!!

I got them to each grab 2 flowers, and put them up to their eyes. Why? I don't know...why not! lol

Then they just started goofing around and dear dear brother B got all gussied up by the girls hahaha He for sure loved every minute of it!
