a few pictures...

from the past few days....

the kids enjoying the nice evening tonight....

three things I notice from this picture:
1. how tall and skinny my kiddos are
2. love the rubber boots with the swimming shorts
2. can't believe how big my kids are




















part of summer is having a dirty face...
a little chocolate from the cookies he helped me make
some sand from the sandbox
and dirt from playing

























daddy helping Lucy learn to ride a tricycle tonight...

























isn't she getting so big???
a little chocolate on her face too.

















they are playing together more and more.
Alden was being Lucy's puppy.
Lucy was a princess (of course)

























and little Lucy looking so cute with her beloved puppy.
liked both the color and the black and white































As of lately my momma has been teaching me how to sew things. I can quilt. But clothes with patterns. It's like they are a different language to me. And so these are my two creations from today. (The dress was started a week or so ago.) Not the best pictures as I used the web cam to take them :)

How awesome for you to be learning how to make clothes now! It's so much fun but slow going for a perfectionist like me. Maybe you can give me some tips on speeding the process up! Have fun!

Oh, how I wish I was there to rub that belly you're trying to hide under that apron ;)
Miss you!

Great photos!!! Isn't it nice to finally have some warm weather so we can go and do things outside?!?! YAY for daddy being home too!
And I love that little dress - SO sweet! Great job! And the apron is awesome too!
Happy Long Weekend!

Look at you branching out your talents! Way to go!! And my kids too are super tall and super skinny... Hey, I am sure they will be able to use their height in high school and win big scholarships! BYU Hawaii for two is going to be quite costly!! hee hee
