So, apparently, since I got my new point and shoot camera (Thanks, Nancy, for making me love yours so much!), I have gone a little picture/video happy. Usually, Reeves is a pretty good sport about donning his required "Cheese!" pose and indulging me in my habit. Unfortunately, somewhere in the past week or so, I exceeded even his quota. And now that I have a camera with video on it, he finds the blasted thing pointed at him for long periods of time. So, here we were, just Reeves and me, enjoying a quiet morning in The Back. It was beautiful, and the weather was just cool enough to really enjoy a little heat from a fire. I must point out that by the time I took this video, I had already had him explain to me twice, on video, how to build and start a fire, and I had sprinkled in a few (dozen) still photos.
Anyway, it's hard to blame him for his frustration with me, and it does make for some pretty entertaining stuff. I guess once his dad got back there, he was DONE with the camera. I'm sure we'll try to get this one on the rehearsal dinner video.
Still, I was able to snap a few still shots after this. It was a special day because Reeves got to spend it with both of his grandfathers and his aunt Lolly. 
Days like this seem to be few and far between given everyone's busy schedules. I'm glad I had the camera. Sorry, Son, you've got three choices. Learn to live with it. Move to a place with absolutely no beauty near it at all. Or quit being so cute. It's up to you.
Keep smiling, Monk!

Too funny! Betsy has been used to the star treatment since she has had a flash in her face all her life, but she boycotted a long time ago. Not even a "cheese" anymore!
