Summertime fun - day 1

Day 1 of my challenge - these pictures were taken with my ipod while we were swimming.

Allie thinking we can blow up the raft - only she has enough hot air to do that!

I try to get at least one picture a month of the girls together. That is so hard to do these days because Allie likes to squeeze the daylights out of Samantha!

My little girl, where have you gone? Sam looks so grown up in this picture. I just want to bottle her up and keep her at 18 months!

Challenge

I have been thinking about challenging myself to actually learn my camera. So therefore, I am going to try and take a picture a day for the next year or 365 days. Now I don't always find time to pick my camera up and take pictures so I have decided it can be a picture with my camera, phone, ipod, etc as long as i take one! So here I go!

Kindergarten Graduation

Wow where did this year go? Seems like yesterday I was signing her up for kindergarten, taking her to her first day, and now she is a 1st grader! Instead of having a formal graduation program, each class wore their class t-shirt and did a program! It was great and then we went outside and had a picnic with all the kids and their families.



Jon wouldn't take a picture but I wanted a picture with my little girl on her last few days of kindergarten!

Kristen Graduates!

Can't believe Kristen has been here 2 years already! Time sure does fly by! We went to the Belmont hooding ceremony to see Kristen get her hood. Afterwards, Allie couldn't help but find her Kristen and give her a big hug!


Sam had a great time at lunch. She didn't make it to the ceremony but sure did show up for the food!


Maybe one day, Allie will be doing the same! The funny thing about this picture is that the hood is as big as she is!

Tooth #2

Allie has lost her teeth and don't know where to find them!


here is number #3 and #4 gone!



Here is number two that Elise worked really hard in getting but took almost another month to come out! The tooth grew in behind it which caused #3 and #4 to come out, so they wouldn't do the same thing!

My Big Girls

Allie - what can i say about this high energy girl? You don't have to tell her twice to pose for a picture!

Sam had a wonderful time playing with the Easter eggs and grass at Grandmom and Granddads!

Celebrating 60 years

This past weekend we celebrated my grandparents 60th wedding anniversary. What a wonderful thing to witness! Most of the family made it in and enjoyed a beautiful afternoon talking and visiting! I hope that Jon and I can enjoy 60+ years together!
