scarred for life

destry's swimming teachers convinced him to go down the water slide the last day of class...

he was less than impressed

can you tell how much he loved swim lessons? He'll be repeating this course again next year...

Did I mention this kid loved the sand?

By the end of our trip he was rolling in it...

Vaycay

We went to CA! It was fun, not at all warm, and a bit windy...but fun nonetheless.

We also got to meet the Los Osos police at midnight our first night. Suuuuuper fun. But it helped that we were buddy-buddy a few days later when we had to call and ask them to patrol our street that night for fear a crazy-man was going to come smash our windows in. No joke.

Good news, I don't want to move to CA now so yay!

day one. You can tell because my hair was sorta straight still.

this kid did NOT want to walk on the sand, but he was ok sitting on it.

This one wasn't too keen on picture taking. Right after this he got up and ran

Ooo, I'm too cool for school. Also, notice the surfer in the background. He's way cooler...

Kolt was there too.

we did a little of this

a lot of this

loved this

less happy about this

happy we finally got a good family pic. Also, notice my hair. We fully embraced the curl by now.

speaking of fully embracing...

I've got a four year old

holy moly times flies, eh? This cute redhead had a birthday last week and I finally bribed convinced him to get a haircut and let me take pictures. I tried sneaking in some 18-month shots of his brother (who is 19 months now...) but he was even harder to convince. dern kids.

I look super poopy but whatevs. I blew out the color enough to pass for acceptable. yeaaaaa!

how does this look for a business card?

well hey there

I'm having a bit of a rough time this morning so I'll leave you with some pictures I took (and destry took) the other day. It was an attempt to get some 18 month shots of Gray but he was feeling grumpy so it didn't pan out too well...

our morning activity

awa-awa-awa! lol
