Look at those baby blues....

Rylee decided that she was going to make herself a PBJ sandwich for dinner ( I was changing laundry over). Avery was whining and crying at her so she gave her a spoonful of peanut butter. What a mess! By the way, I did not enhance the color. Her eyes are really that blue!

My flower girl

Rylee picked this from our flower bed. I snapped it while she was enjoying and playing with it.

Zoey loves alfredo!

And you thought KFC was the only place that was "fingerlicking good" Zoey throughly enjoyed the leftover alfredo that I cooked for dinner the other night.

A shout out to my teacher!

Here are a few photos that my teacher took ( I feel like I am back in elementary school) I think she does great work. I have learned so much from her so far and am looking to learn lots more! I can't say it enough...THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!

Photography Rocks!

Here are a few photos that I have taken with my new skills. I am loving it!

Memorial Day

We had a beautiful Memorial Day. The sun was shining brightly in the Last Frontier. Most of us are sun kissed even though we put on sunscreen. We went to a BBQ and had a great day...full of fun, sun, family, and friends. I spent most of the day working on my photography. I have to say that I am having a BLAST! Sure hope you don't get sick of pictures. I also have to add that Aubrey Rizzo is quite the amazing babysitter. She was so cute with ALL those kids. You have a keeper Paulene!

Daddy's Little Girl

Avery will only say Ma Ma when she is whinny or crying....no matter how hard I try...the little stinker is such a tease. Check it out!

Too cute!!!

So I am working with a photography group through church. I was taught how to let natural light in, instead of using a flash. I was practing that technique and snapped this picture of Avery. I really love it! Hope it brightens your day!

A little photo fun

I was just playing around with my photo program and changed my colored photos to infrared and then touched up the edges. I thought that they turned out nice. Thought I'd post for all to enjoy. Hope your day is fantastic!

Wonderful Warm Weather

Everyone says that milk does a body good...but I believe that sun does a body good all the way to the core. We have had some nice weather and we have thoroughly enjoyed it. The pictures from top left to right...Rylee riding her bike that she won last year at Family Fun in the Midnight Sun. She is finally tall enough to touch the pedals. Zoey and Avery playing outside. The middle ones are enjoying the fire pit that we built on Saturday. We roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. The bottom...Avery getting a little vitamin D(irt). She kept dunking her binkie in it and licking it off. Then Zoey and Rylee drawing on the sidewalk with chalk. They are a crack up trying to play hop scotch. I hope all of you cherish and enjoy the warmth of the sun as much as we do!

Hawaii

Here are more photos from our days in Hawaii...(top to bottom left to right) a beautiful sunset, at the Luau at the Polynesian Culture Center, a huge sea turtle that beached himself (his name is Brutus, he is 50 years old and weighs about 270) Ryan at the beach after snorkeling, Waimea Falls, a dolphin we saw while sailing on the ocean, at the temple, outside the Marriott, at the falls after the hike. We are sure having fun!

My beautiful girls

Here are some pictures of the girls that were on my camera when we got here. I kinda forgot about them. We took them one Sunday. I sure do miss them, but it is nice to be here. I have been able to spend good quality time with my husband. I know I will go home rested and relaxed. I will be able to be the wife and mom that Heavenly Father wants me to be.

Aloha!

This place is defiantly paradise. Here are a few pictures from our first few days here on Oahu. It has been great! Nice and warm, but it has sprinkled rain off and on, which is a nice break from the sun. It feels like a little air conditioner. We are enjoying ourselves. but I do have to admit that I feel a but naked without my kids and a diaper bag. We are sure blessed to be able to do this. Peggy is truly an angel on earth.
