In an effort to distract myself from the mass exodus of our friends here in Iowa (and promote further personal talent development, learning and growth) I gave myself a Picture of the Day challenge on Facebook. Sadly I only made it half way through the month and then got distracted with travels, sickness, life, etc. I plan on attempting this challenge again someday in the near future. Since I annually turn this blog into a book and highly doubt facebook will be around for my children's viewing pleasure 10 years from now, I still wanted to share my favorite gems here.
May 9, 2011--Spending the afternoon under the blossom tree.
May 10, 2011--Sultry 99 degree weather calls for wading pool parties and swimsuits all day long.
May 11, 2011 --Watching thunder and lightening for the first time.
May 12, 2010-- Hard to believe this was the only picture taken all day... on my cell phone! Yikes on the quality, but it does sum up our day very well.
May 13, 2011-- Another day of only cell phone pictures. Yikes! After a preschool Mothers Day Tea and a successful trip to the ENT, Alec was practically beaming from all the one on one attention.
May 14, 2011 -- That boy has moooooves! He grooves to the music just like his mama.
May 15th-- Falling asleep while reading stories on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Nick makes up the most random stories when he's falling asleep. :-)
May 16, 2011-- Learning how to clap is fun to do! She's sitting so pretty these days.
May 17, 2011-- Trampoline jumping Captain Jack pirates. It's so fun to have friends who play pretend with you.
May 18, 2011-- The little mans last day of school.
May 19, 2011-- I'm cheating. This is actually from the 16th, but yesterday was a project editing day so no new pictures were taken. Still this is one of my favorite spontaneous moments I captured during my visit. The little lady was singing to her baby sister and the parents were soooo happy. Heaven seemed so close and I left feeling spiritually uplifted. Thank you, Laura, for the opportunity to photograph your beautiful family.
May 20, 2011-- Another day of no significant picture taking, but some fun editing. These twin boys are a hoot!
May 21, 2011-- Like father, like son. Optimus Prime shirts and plaid shorts. I LOVE IT!
May 22, 2011-- A preschool reunion.... The Fabulous Five! Each with their own unique lovable personality. I think it's safe to say we are really REALLY going to miss these boys when they move this summer.
May 23, 2011-- Another photo editing day. I love this family. I have photographed them more than anyone else and it has been so fun to watch them all grow and change over the years.
May 24, 2011-- Lyssa in deep thought. Notice her thinking tongue. :-)
