A Few More S&S!

Here are a few more that I had done and/or have changed :o)

Shanny & Steve: Engaged!

So here I am, actually posting some of my photography on this blog!  I don't do this often, so give me some feedback and perhaps I'll continue.  :o)

These two fun people are Shanny & Steve!  We spent a beautiful Saturday together exploring, breaking the law, laughing, experiencing hovering waiters, and talking about their big day coming up in June.  I had a great time, and I am so excited about being able to photograph these for them and their wedding!  Thank you Shanny & Steve!!!!!!

Star of the Week!

As most of you may have noticed, I really haven't been keeping up with the blog.  I have decided to try a little bit harder, especially for those of you that aren't close by.  Sorry about the last 6 months :o)  

So this week Adyson will be the Star of the Week in Kindergarten.  She had to answer some questions and bring some pictures in for her SOTW poster.  I wanted to share the pictures that she chose with you!

Adyson's Birthday Party!  8/8/08 

All the crazy children that we nanny for!

This is a picture from the state fair 8/08!  

It was such a fun time!  Adyson's first visit there!

This is Kristy, Adyson, Great Grandma, and Robyn!

We went to IL for Thanksgiving to see Great Grandma! 11/08

Seriously!!!  Fall is the absolutely best time here!  There are so many fun things to do!  We have made many of them into tradition, such as taking all of the children to the corn maze!  This is a a huge pit of corn kernals, and the children can not get enough of it.  They can "swim" in this thing for hours!

9/08

We went to NYC in August, and Adyson loved it.  She wants to move there!  This picture and the next one are from Dylan's Candy Bar.  It's a famous candy store.  The tables, stairs, wallpaper, it all incorporated candy in them in some ways.  It also had all of the classic candy of our childhood.  On the top floor was a ice cream shop, and as you can see Adyson liked our ice cream better than the bubble gum flavor that she chose.

Robyn and Adyson in Times Square 8/08

This is Robyn and Adyson in San Diego.  Yes, 2008 was the year of travel for Adyson.  She saw both coasts in the matter of 3 months.  She had fun plane rides out west, and awesome road trips out east.  She's very blessed to have a cool aunt and mommy!  

Adyson and Ariel

DisneyLand 6/08

The three of us, Kristy Robyn and Adyson, took Camryn home to AZ in June after her wonderful stay with us!  When we arrived we jumped in Camille's car and we were off to Cali.  We all went to Disneyland!!!  The girls, and the grown ups, had a great time!!!

I will post more photos from each of these events later... I promise!

Keegan's Princess Birthday Party!

This Saturday was our friend Keegan's birthday party and she turned 6!  Keegan is the little girl that Suzie nannies for, so the three of us went decked out in our princess dresses too! (aka old bridesmaid dresses... put to great use!)  We organized it (mostly Suzie) and did the different activities at it.  There was hair (Keegan's mom and gma), manicures and pedicures (Suzie and Robyn), face painting (me), and crafts... making crowns and gluing jewels on flip flops.  It was an exciting time!!!  I'm pretty sure that I will be posting more of these later also!  Needless to say, the girls had a GREAT time, and they both would like to do it for their birthday's.  You should have seen their faces when Keegan opened her Mariposa barbie... Camryn's jaw dropped.  "She's sooo beautiful!!!"  I call dibs on getting both girls one for their birthday's :o)

Snow White

Fun times!

Tinkerbell

Towards the end we all got a little crazy with the face paints and turned them into body paints.  Suzie was just the first of the many victims!

Camp Finale - Fiesta Friday

They had a fiesta at camp today, to celebrate the last day.  It was also a snake themed day.  There are plenty of snakes at the outdoor center, and the kids had a fun time investigating them closer.  They also got to play with the bunnies again... popular demand! 

There are special snacks in the bags to share with our friends at camp!

 Running up to the outdoor center, where all the magic happens.

Camryn at snack time.

Ms. F and the snake!

Mrs. M and Sunny Bunny!

That night the girls were playing in Adyson's room.  Camryn came out and behold... a beautiful princess... lipstick and all.  She applies it just like her mommy! :o)

Camp - Day 3

The theme in camp today was bunnies and turtles.  The kids had a chance to play with the two bunnies that live inside of the nature center, and investigate the ones that live outside too.  They learned what a painted turtle and a snapping turtle look like, and they went on a little walk to find some.  Unfortunately it was sprinkling, chilly, and cloudy, so the turtles didn't feel like coming out of the lake today.  It was all very fun though.

The usual before camp starts picture.  

All the bunnies at home after camp.

You may be wondering what she is doing... she is pretending to lick a pine cone.  Why?  To help us remember that about 3 minutes before this picture she actually did lick one.  Yes, there is a story behind it.  She said that it tasted sweet.  She laughed for a long time after she did it, especially because she was on the phone with mommy when it happened.

Rewind once more

 Here are a couple more from when Camille was here.  These are definitely not done, but I know Camille wanted to see some... so here you go!  :o)
