A Look Back In Time. My favorites 2010-2011

Kasey in the backyard at 32 weeks pregnant.

Roland Roman Thomas   November 24th, 2010 11:59 PM   8lbs 8oz    22 inches long.   He is 10 days old in this photo.

Roland and Uncle Roman Dec 2010. 

Grandma Claudia (right) comes to meet Roland and get to know our zany family.  Pictured: Claudia, dad Jake, Kasey holding Roland, Bryce, Uncle Roman, cousins Diana and Emily, Aunt Terri and Greg.  Xmas 2010.   In the studio wearing our Xmas finery.  Grandma Claudia lives in Colorado.

I loved these John Deere boots that were a gift from his Great Grandmother Joan who lives in Texas.  The flannel blanket was made made by Bryce and Uncle Roman.  All he needs now is a tractor.  He will grow to love the outdoors.  

Grandpa singing and strumming.  Roland loves the sounds of Farmer's Market Material. That's the family band.  We all play some instrument.  He will grow up listening to his mom play the Uke, his dad rockin his bass with Valkyrie Rodeo, Grandpa playing the guitar, Uncle Roman picking the banjo or his Grandma hammering the dulcimer.  Oh and his mom has a beautiful voice. We also love the Boppy pillow.  Laying around won't last long.

Ready for his closeup.  

We took a lot of studio photos of Roland in his formal pin stripe pants, red velvet vest and white shirt, but this candid shot of Roland and Kasey spoke the loudest.   Grandpa Jak was behind the camera.

Its all about the stripes.  Grandma loves to dress me in stripes.  Roland also loves to look out the big picture window watching the trucks, squirrels and dogs stroll by when he visits. He has great hair!

Halloween, 2011 in the studio.  I love the Hannah Andersson pumpkin outfit.   11 months old and steady on his feet.   (He will be walking in 2 weeks). 

Roland's first birthday and Thanksgiving 2011.  Roland's birthday will fall on Thanksgiving every 6 years.  Visiting is Grandma Claudia and Great Grandma Marie.
