Ashlyn's swim lessons 2010

Visiting Aunt Kay

Here are a few pictures from when we visited my sister in Utah. Mike was out of town for work and so for the past two years we have planned to go and visit then. Thanks Kay for keeping us for just over a week. We love visiting you guys and miss you already!!

Quincy was in love with their cat Mushu. He would follow him everywhere. The poor cat couldn't eat without him in his face. He really is the best cat I ever know(and I don't like cats)!

We went to a couple of Chandler's baseball games(which by the way, was Ashlyn's favorite thing we did). He is getting to be a really good baseball player. I know that next year he will be hitting home runs and pitching no-hitters!! Way to go Chandler!

Favorite Beach pictures

Here are a few of my favorite beach pictures. There is something so peaceful about the ocean. We have loved living so close that we can go in the evening for a sunset or make a last minuet trip in the day with just the kids and I.

My favorite people!

Isn't that just the cutest cry face!

Those blue eyes match the ocean.

I love kisses from this baby!

Can you tell what she is? Yes, a sand mermaid!

Digging for China!

Loren & Vickie came for a visit. This was the end of the beach trip and Q was tired and cranky.

Life in Cali

Since moving to California we have been able to experience many new things and snails are one of them. Quincy is madly in love with snails! I can still remember the first time he found one and with no fear or hesitation he picked it up and examined it. It was cute at first but got old real fast(snail guts are so hard to get off)!

Look how excited he is about finding it.

Don't worry she wouldn't touch it even if you paid her!

Just egging her brother on!

Maybe I can get it with my foot!

The foot didn't work so I guess I'll use my fingers!

Got it! I didn't get anymore pictures cause I freaked and threw the snail in the bushes!
