It was a beautiful day for the sailboats.

A nice hike with my son.

getting ready to hike


Here is the birthday boy. Checking out the "flowers". Wasn't going to burst his bubble and tell him they were weeds.

water running over logs


sitting on a tree stump on the way out


Ah the wonder in a Child's eyes, laying on the ground at Grammy's. That is dirt on his face and nose. Stuck to it from a popsicle.


on his tummy saying hi to mom, all boy. SO dirty!

Three years ago today God gave us the MOST AMAZING gift. As of 6:40 this morning my special little boy "officially" turned 3!

wow how time has flown....

seconds after being born


all cozy


this morning opening presents:


"do I have to take a picture?"


half smile


blowing out his candle


the birthday pancake. Which he promptly freaked out at because it wasn't normal. He normally doesn't like sweets. Oops...

"Usyluss"

The baby with no name. It is a joke now. I took many pics but only a few turned out.

Which belly is actually carrying the baby?


absolutely glowing


relaxing


love....


almost time...


sisters


grandma talking to baby


looking at and thinking about baby


wondering what the future holds.

Dorothy

The ever popular saying rings SO true. I would capitalize the H though....


And here she is. Dorothy. Kidding. But man is she beautiful. My friend Lindsay.

Spider Web

I absolutely can't STAND spiders. They freak me out. Not sure why. Creepy crawly. But my son was outside playing and I saw this web. I got a water bottle and put some mist to it. Then played around in Gimp. This is the outcome....
I like how the water stood out.



how about purple?

50th Wedding Anniversary

Just a few shots of family. Celebrating my grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary.

The happy couple. I just love how in love they still are!

He and his beautiful fiancé


my cousin and Aunt

This is what shock looks like!
