EVERY MORNING ERIN PUT OUT QUITE A BREAKFAST SPREAD

KIDS WERE BACK PLAYING IN THE FOREST WHEN I TOOK THIS SHOT. THEY WERE WAY INTO THE THICK OF IT.

FIVE ACRES IS A LOT OF PROPERTY - AND LOOK AT THE FOREST THEY HAVE (THIS IS JUST A PART OF IT

I was standing pretty far away and zoomed up to these and then even closer.

Luckily cameras have zooms on them.  I couldn't even begin to walk out there like they did - to get to this big tree branch.  I tried and even though Holly kept asking me to come farther I couldn't - I have no desire to trip or break a bone again.

WATER FUN

SO FUNNY!

LOVE THIS ONE

KIDS ASKING ABOUT JOHN'S TATTOOS.

CAYDEN AND HOLDEN AKA HAYDEN AND COLDEN

I was so tongue-tied when naming these two all week - ..I finally gave in and called them by their new names which they didn't necessarily like.  These are some shots on the day Mike and I took the two of them down to Al's Market so they could throw rocks into the sound.

I have so many (of course) of the two of them so I'll split them up between C's blog and H's blog.

The first time we went there with Holly, HOlden and Cayden - the tide was high so there wasn't much beach.  This time we timed it right.
