Beach Pictures

Two beach trips means two evenings of beach pictures for me! The first trip my goal was to get pictures of Rowe. I have two large canvases of Brennan on the beach at the same age, so I wanted to capture some of Rowe also. I haven't actually printed them yet (no surprise there :), but I think they will coordinate well.














The second trip we were able to have my mom and the three grandchildren. My photography skills definitely lack when it comes to getting everyone smiling and looking at the camera. I actually love photographs where the people are doing something and a little more natural. I was able to try a little of both, and we came away with a few special moments.

Every Day is a Great Day at the Circus!

We went to the circus this weekend! For four of the six of us, it was our first time to see the Greatest Show On Earth. For two of the six of us it might not have lived up to it's hype. They still thought the hotel pool was the most fun part of the weekend. We made some great memories though!

We got there early for the interactive time. It was pretty crowded,  but these two had fun dressing up.




We saw the "Built to Amaze" tour. It was a great show! The performers were pretty amazing. Of the first timers: I most enjoyed the elephants, Brennan liked the human cannon ball, Maeleigh liked the poodles and horses, and Rowe just slept through most of it. They also enjoyed cotton candy, popcorn, and a new toy. The grand ending of confetti falling was pretty spectacular as well! Brennan and Rowe were both asleep by then, but Maeleigh thought it was pretty cool.











Traveling with three littles was a whole new experience. You would think with three adults and three kids it wouldn't be that big of a deal, but we pretty much felt like a traveling circus the whole time. Ha! Ha! Overall, the kiddos were good and I learned a few things:
1. Always over pack (which isn't a problem for me). Brennan and Mike had to make a clothes change in Buca de beppo's parking lot (carsickness strikes again).
2. Indoor pools are great for energetic preschoolers.
3. I'm not ready to tackle Disney. I probably need a few years of rigorous training before we do that!
