I have the same dilemma too - we took pictures on Saturday and one of my favorites has Mason sticking his tongue out. Not sure if I should stick with it or choose another. I love your candid shot though - you should at least display it in your house!
This photo is great, Isaac and all. You cut a pretty profile! And I cannot believe how big your oldest (Elliot?) is! Wow, he's a tween! And already so handsome and dapper!
I love how dapper Elliot and Aaron look. Issac makes a cute Quasimoto. About the the picture uploading...we had the same problem uploading pics from our old digital camera, and figured it was the USB connection from the cord. We just ended up getting a new camera, but I hope you can fix it.
I just read this scripture quoted in a blog comment thread, alluding to. . .me. 2 Nephi 9:28 28 O that cunning plan of the evil one! O the vainness, and the frailties, and the foolishness of men! When they are learned they think they are wise, and they hearken not unto the counsel of God, for they set it aside, supposing they know of themselves, wherefore, their wisdom is foolishness and it profiteth them not.

When we get a paycheck: 10% tithing right off the top Then, with the remainder (net minus tithing), I divy it up into percentages and put money into different "funds" -- that I keep track of in the back of my paycheck because I'm old school like that. Mortgage: I figure out the percentage it will take to cover my mortgage. Usually 29-30%. I think this percentage needs to stay under 35% of take-home after tithing. Baby steps: 20% goes to meeting financial goals a la Dave Ramsey's baby steps. This means that you focus on one thing at a time, leaving the rest so that your money is not so thinly spread and you can make visible progress. This presupposes that one has abandoned using credit, and i
