our new addition

Here is our new furry friend! Charlie came to our home May 25. He is a 4 years old golden retriever that is very gently and loving. He is a great family dog and loves the children. We are working on a few manors and obedience issues but he has made great progress already.

Charlie has been shave for the summer but as his hair grows we will put pictures of him later in the year.

So you may stop by for a visit and me our new very cuddly friend.

new bicycle

After finishing his school year like a champ and being promoted to first grade, Julien got a new bicycle, was needed as well since his knees where almost up to the handle bar on his old one! He is so excited and proud of his hotrock 24 and the fact that it is blue.

fun at the park

Took the children to the park this week to play and have fun. And I brought with me my camera and a prop and a few changes of clothes. I have been so bad lately at taking pictures that I thought I would take advantage of this nice weather to catch up on pictures. I have not done any session for Xavier's 18 months or 20 months so here it is at 21 months. Then miss Olivia in a lovely Matilda Jane outfit and none the less master Julien no special outfit but a few pictures to make his first black eye memorable!

They are growing up so fast I have a difficult time keeping up with them!

mother's day

This year for mother's day I got spoiled as I got a whole weekend away with a few girlfriends. We stayed local and scrapbook for hours and hours, Friday through Sunday. It was so much fun, so here are a few of my favorite pages.

I thought that I had to post something before I get out of the habit, but besides I have not taken many pictures either which I think I will regret that later. So maybe this is the kick start for me to get going again!
