Congratulations, Amy! What a great caption. This is actually not the first time that Jeff Foxworthy has made an appearance on my blog. Interestingly enough, I was inspired by Jeff's you might be a redneck if jokes to write this post almost exactly a year ago.
Well done, my friend. You have won a camera strap slip cover of your choice, created just for you by Shealynn! (Shoot me an email, Amy, so I can hook you up with your loot!)

What was I photographing while reclining in the snow with MckMuffin yesterday?
Why, our sledding adventure with my friend Carrie and her family, of course!!!

Fabulous pics!! Looks like fun!
I've never commented, am I going to be lucky enough to be the first on this post? Your kids are soooo adorable!
What fun and great pictures!
HILARIOUS enteries...FABULOUS photos!
~Elyse~
Wow...your readers sure are witty!! Excellent snow pics...love the angles that babywearing in the snow can provide in a photograph!!
Great pictures, they look like they had a blast!
Man...those are some GREAT captions!!! Good work, one and all! These pictures prove I need to get outdoors with my new camera...I'm getting sick of photographing my low-light living room at night...ha!
So glad things are back to "normal" in your life. My mom always said, "Normal is good. Normal is soooo good." :)

Great caption for Small Fry. Looks like you all had a great time sledding!
Great pics! I am hoping to get my camera for my birthday...then I can take all your tips and put them to use!
Your fresh snow is lovely! Ours is rock hard... We got rain last weekend when you were getting snow. Sounds like a repeat tomorrow night. Our snow is not of the sledding kind right now sadly.
Looks like a great time!
I want snow!!!! We've had days and days of rain. The temp is dropping, so we might get just a little of the white stuff.
Your pictures are awesome. Wish we lived closer to one another. Our youngest son's senior pics were horrible. We had the formal ones retaken and got a refund for the casual pics! We've got another studio taking pics tomorrow. I'd love some outside pics of him shot by MckMama, though...*sigh*
Could you PLEASE send us some of that snow? My kids would love to go sledding! Do you ever get tired of all the snow? Just curious! Looks like so much fun and also like it would burn a ton of calories! That's what would interest me!
Happy New Year!

Ohh that photo of Nuggey melts my heart.
Look at Big Mac's smile!
Wowser.
You might be a redneck if you say "wowser"...
Love the winner...People are so creative.
Love the new photos also, especially the last one of McNugget. So sweet, looks like they had a great time.
beautiful pictures, as always :)
I LOVE those pictures!!!
Beautiful pictures.
you take the best pics!! Love those rosy cheecks!!!
Could you send a little bit of THAT our way!???
My kids are looking at these pics with GREAT envy....which is a sin, ya know!
lol too funny! I love I'm raisin you ten. Some pretty creative people read this blog :0)
what do you think about letting your readers vote (via a poll or something i don't know how to do) on the favorite captions you have it narrowed down to? (most grammatically incorrect sentence ever, sorry). i've never written one, but like seeing what people write and always tend to find a favorite.
Funny stuff! The pictures are great--looks like you guys had a great time!
wow...the pic of Nuggey is AMAZING! The cheeks, the pose, the expression...that had to be the one you shot while on the ground with your babe?!
Loving your selections for top title pics...my fav is I'm raisin you ten...so clever!
I just panicked a bit when I remembered I forgot to look at your counter. Do you realize that you had a million views from October to Nov?! That is crazy girl! (I was trying to calculate when it may happen...we'll see how close I get)
Nuggey looks like SUCH a big boy! :) He's grown up so much recently.
great pics! looks like fun! we don't get snow down here, so i'm kinda jealous
Congrats to Amy and looks like ya'll had fun in the snow!
Hugs and prayers,
Amanda
We don't get any of that here in GA! It would be fun to take my daughter out to play in the snow(for a week and then it would need to disappear) :-)
That was a great choice! Can not wait for the next!
Beauty may be in the "eye of the beholder", but we are surely "Beholding Beauty"!
Love you photos...as always..
My sledding pics pale in comparison...but you do have THE lens, and a decent camera! I have a dropped six times, six year old cannon digital.
Check them out if you like...

MckMama,
One more ?'
I was just watching the video on the Miracle Blanket, reminds me of the Indian Papoos boards! Looks like the same bundling, but what I am wondering do the little ones bundled in these grow up to be more disciplined/controlled kids???
Not sure if that is the exact wording for the thought process, but hopefully you understand :)
Ooh, looks like you guys had a blast!
Rich took Isaac sledding the other day too, and then today all the kids went sledding at pre-school!
I love Nuggie's over-sized mittens :)
Hope to talk to you soon!
Hilary
Hahaha LOVE. IT. The picture is just adorable!
Looks like the fam was having fun in the snow, too. =)
I have been reading your blog since you were in the hospital on bed rest. I sobbed when I read about Stellan's bout with RSV. I used a similar blanket to the miracle blanket. I clicked on the banner for the blanket and watched the video. I looks like torture when the babies arms are strapped down. But both of my babies were arms out, hands on face sleepers so I would swaddle them in a swaddler blanket and then pull their arms out. I would even do this in the hospital after the nurses would burrito wrap my baby and walk out I would go over and untuck their arms. But those blankets are so awesome. My daughter used her until she was 6 months old. I love your blog.
You don't know nuthin' 'bout no rednex, honey. That looks WAY out in the country - but not rednex country.
My family use their feet as another hand. We pick things up of the floor with our feet, etc.. Our friends think it is hilarious.
And it looks like a great time was had by all while sledding. We took the boys for the first time last winter and had a ball.

Hope you get a great nights sleep tonight!
I noticed neither of us picked the cat picture for our posts. :) I'm saving that one for Monday cuz really, who goes sledding with their cat!? Not me!
I forgot to include the one of SisterBear and MckNugget drinking hot chocolate. Darn!
p.s. I found Nuggey's pair of mittens in the library this morning. Do you have others or should we try to hook up soon?
what is MOPS?
That caption is hilarious!
Perfect winner for the picture!! I love it. You did an amazing job shooting your pics too. They are absolutely stunning pictures.
Great pictures!! Our snow is gone, but boy, the rain has come!!!
SO... I'm now going to be one of those people... who ask you a question you've probably answered a million times. I've looked through your "What kind of camera/lens do you have" and "Photography lessons," and I even looked up a review on your 50mm f/1.8 II lens to find the answer. But alas, I am lost. My question is: when you snap such great pictures as the sledding shots, or of Small Fry's adorable redneck foot, are you using manual or autofocus? I'm in the Nikon breed and have a GREAT lens... but it's manual focus only. I spend forever trying to get my son in enough natural lighting that if he moves, it won't be blurry as heck. I realize the boys were sledding outside, so I guess that's enough natural lighting. And I don't want to insult you, being a professional and all, if you ONLY use manual focus and how dare I consider you using anything less! : )
Hope this answer isn't in too many posts already... I feel bad when you have to repeat yourself so often!!
By the way, my friend Brooke wrote me, excited that SHE was sending you her Miracle blanket!! : ) Oh, how I wish I had had that a few months ago. My son was always sneaking his arms out.
Thanks MckMama!
Gorgeous pics! And I loved the slogan you chose...although the one about raisins and toejam is hilarious!!
xoxo, Veronica in CA
p.s. I went and ordered some miracle blankets after checking them out today. I am so excited!!
Stunning photographs! I love the way you capture "feeling" if that makes sense!? My favourite was by Beth, "I'm raising you ten." I had a good laugh at that!
Love the pictures.. looks like a wonderful day of fun!
i love that last pic, of mcnugget on the sled!
I have to admitt, I do not get the redneck thing and this photo at all...?????!!!!!!
I love your pictures! And totally off the subject, I had no idea what a miracle blanket was until you put that link up. Now I want one! But my daughter is four and my son is 19 months, so I don't think that they would care for it too much!Hmmm, maybe if we had a new baby...lol
So Cute!!!!!! Looks like where we are! We are in the middle of a lake effect blizzard as we speak!
Love it :)
what a fun day.

Very valuable for all!!
Great pictures-- gotta run now. Off to make my crown for Honorable Mention!!

imthankfullyhis@gmail.com
aawww...beatiful pictures! The bottom one is my favorite!
BTW - I come over from where you won #1 blogger!!!
Oh the bottem is my fav as well!
Hey Jennifer, this is Steph. Not sure if this is completely true or not, but thought you might want to bring attention to it if it is:
http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/264507
So glad Stellan is doing well!! I just got another new dog, so I may have to have you go another photo shoot for me this spring! :)
your pictures encourage me to take back out my nice cannon camera and put my click and shoot in my pocket for a while. But I just can't manage to talk myself into using film again and don't have the money (nor do I want to budget for it) to buy a digital one. Ahh, I can dream can't I?
...maybe you're near enough to me that you can make a few bucks by taking pics of my family :)
we got snow the last two days, but it's so light...but i can't hold them back anymore. snow play time is this afternoon. yeah! u have great shots! funno!
your blog is a gift. although it makes me long for the days that i was raisin (ha ha, get it?) my youngins. they are now 17 and 19 and i found myself tearing up last nite in youth group, just enjoying the afterglow of that kind of motherhood. wish blogs had been invented then.
so thanks for the tears and the laughs.
I love the snow photos!
as usual...darling darling darling! it's probably 65-70 degrees here in ole alabama! i can live w/o the snow...but we need it to at least be cold once in a while! fabulous pictures. i love big macs smile! so genuinely happy!
I know that you have four children, and they are all beautiful,
And I know that you do not like to place an emphasis on your children's looks,
And I know it's not the most important thing,
but that child is absolutely gorgeous (MckNugget that is). And that is just an awesome, awesome picture of him. You have a beautiful family, thank you for sharing them with us.
looks like loads of fun. i can't wait to take our kiddos sledding down our barn hill SOMETIME hopefully soon...
I think Nuggey looks soooo much like his MckMama in that picture...WOW!
Love, Angela
Hi Jennifer, Steph again, ignore that link I just sent you a few hours ago. Found out it IS an exaggeration. All is good. :) Sorry to add to your number of posts to read. :)
You did a great job with those pictures. :)

That's what I get for picking my son up from school and going to the grocery store (I'm on the west coast)!! I missed it by only 256 people! They were dedicated people, I tell ya.
Oh I had been missing that Nuggey... cute one on the sled :) I am from Michigan and have fond memories of my sisters and I playing in the snow.

So I've been following your blog for quite a while now and have totally fallen in love with your family and your A-mazing love for our Lord and Savior! At 6:15p the counter was at 2,990,999. Now it's over 3,000,000. It took less then 2 hrs to have more than 9,000 hits! can that be real!?

Didn't know how to email a pic that I took of your counter. It wasn't on the mark but close :)
Farrah
It's probably just got that many hits so fast because everyone sat around all day today hitting refresh.
Great pictures of your beautiful children.
I LOVE your blog. Just found it the other day. I am a mom of two miracle babies, who LOVES the miracle blanket too. How long did you use it for, how long do you plan to use it? Also have you ever heard of MobyWrap? It is also for babywearing, and very versatile. It is so comfortable and made to carry your kids until 35pounds if you would like. I also couldn't figure out how to upload the counter, it is at 3003082 now. WOW YOU have a lot of readers:-)
Love the new header!!! Can't believe over 3 Million hits!!!!
I love the new shirts!!! Too cute :)
I love the pics in the new header! The shirts are perfect :)
Well dang! Forgot to check your counter cus I'm too busy baking a cake for my son that turned a year yesterday. Finally checked and was 3 mil plus a few. Have been keeping up w you on my blackberry cus home coputer crashed! Tried to take apic but #s were too small and the glare was awful! Well, anyway, congrats on hitting 3mill and I'm so glad little stellan is feeling better, my son is getting over RSV also but was not near as sick as your little man. There were lots of prayers from this end during those days.
LOVE the new header....wow! Those shirts are fantastic!!!! Of course, they will never get to wear them in public without you blowing your cover! Did you get matching a matching MckMama shirt?, and a Prince Charming...oh, and Queen Mum! and don't forget Uncle Duke tooo!
cute header! the shirts are adorable! what a cute idea!
I love the new look! Second surprise of the day....the count and then new style! You are so good at keepig it fresh!
