Joy Joy Joy...down in my heart...where?

Natalie learned a new song in little lambs today. It was hilarious to hear her say "where?" so I thought I would share. I love her little motions too...who knew she really listens to people that are teaching her things.

Dylan's Birthday!

Here is the invitation to Dylan's birthday party. It was a spider man themed party so I thought it would be appropriate for him to wear his halloween costume for the pictures! 

Those little action poses were all his doing. I just took the pictures while he was posing for them. 

It has really been a month?!!

Ok, so I can explain why it has been a whole month since the last post. We moved about 2 or 3 weeks ago and we just got back from vacation yesterday. I would post pictures of our new house, but it still is not looking the way I would like it to. Give me another 2 weeks and it should be at a point where I can take pictures, right now it is not near there.

We go every year to Gulf Shores for a week along with my family. Despite the LONG drive we always have a good time rain or shine. This year no rain, just a lot of wind. That still didnt keep us from being outside almost the entire time. Natalie LOVED the "mud" she called it, or the sand and was usually head to toe sand at the end of the day. Dylan was sick for the first part of the trip, his asthma is usually really bad at this time of year and being outside wasnt his idea of fun.  The picture below was on the last day when he was feeling better and wanted to be outside throwing things into the water the whole day. 
we went on a dolphin cruise one day with the kids. The last time we went it was crazy how many dolphins we saw. This year was a little disappointing, there was about 3 of them and we only saw them for about 2 minutes total! Not that great for a hour and a half boat ride.this was the best picture that I got. I took a ton, but of course there was a lovely pole in my view and they were always on the other side of the boat. Just a precious picture of Natalie kissing Tim's nose. So CUTE!

The next few pictures are pretty funny once you hear the story that goes behind it. For one of Dylan's surprises we got him a kite. Here is Tim trying to fly it after we put it together.

It really didnt fly, it more just stayed at Tim's level while he ran back and forth on the beach.All the kids were chasing it...or they were chasing Tim.Then my dad said that he would fly it with Dylan and come to find out it was put together wrong. After my dad fixed it it was flying really high. 

Trying to get a good picture of the two of them together is always one of my goals. They never are looking at me at the same time or one of them is pulling a funny face and soon they lose all patience with me and just stop looking period. This trip was no different...

Natalie giving hugs, Dylan just going along with it but not very excited about it.

So do the tatoos add to the cuteness of the picture or not?

Best picture of the two of them.
