Harley first time at our home

Harley has grass all over her face because it was the first time she has seen or been on grass. She kept digging and pulling it out.

Harley just relaxing in the back yard


I put this picture up to say that Harley climbed this pen and threw herself over it when she was in it. We put her in the the garage in the pen now plan B where to keep her at night!



We ran her and ran her and she is tuckered out... She is so sweet and we are all so happy to have her in our life. I can't wait to see what kind of dog she turns into. Hopefully she is a lot like her mom Sheba!



Our new addition Ms Harley

Harley soaking up Arizona sun for the last time, before she came home with us to enjoy some California sun.


Harley giving some love to my ear. Love puppy kisses but the puppy breath, I forgot how bad puppy breath smells but still loved it because Harley is sooo sweet.


Sheba the best dog, she is a great mom and such a wonderful dog. She enjoys water and just jumps into the pool. I hope Harley enjoys the water.


I love this picture I put it up twice!



This is what anna looked like all weekend she spent the whole weekend in the pool swimming with Sheba. The rest of the weekend she was hold Harley, talking to her is a sweet soft voice. Harley is Anna's new baby, and she is doing a great job taking care of Harley.

Flat Stanley

The poster I made for Flat Stanley to show Anna's class all of Stanley's adventures with Brandon

Stanley was hard to wake up he was not use to waking up like an Airman


Stanley and Brandon my nephew hanging out in Saudia Arabia


Brandon said Stanley was resting in Brandon's lounge area before they had to go to work.



This is Brandon my nephew he is stationed in Saudia Arabia and will be returning this year in July. We can't wait for him to return we miss him and love him so much.




Brandon cruising around base





Brandon is a Staff Sergant in the Air Force and he is an electician, great to have an electrician in the family.







Brody's Day at the Park

"BRODY DOG" On the way to dog park, he loves car rides. We even took him once all the way up to Napa with us and with 7 people in the car. Still saying sorry to my sister for that because he was on her most of the trip!!


Brody walking up to the gate for the dog park, I swear he is smiling


Saying "Hello" to all his new friends at the dog park.

I freaked out the first time I saw this picture because Mike took the kids and Brody to the dog park. But they were just playing, thank god that is a pit bull but Mike said he was a puppy!



My babies at the dog park





Near the Red Rocks in Nevada

On the way to the Red Rocks Nick got a hold of the camera I love this picture

Old town near the Red Rocks pretty cute old town. The even had a hanging on the day we were there, some one stoled a horse. (it was fake)




This guy greeted us when when walked into the old town. He became our new family friend he wanted to get out of the town, he asked if he could go home with us but he looked a little scarry so we said NO



Near the red rocks




A petting zoo inside the old town.





I am not sure but I think Nick was trying to eat the animal






Anna was a little nervous to feed this little horse but she did finally with daddy's help








Viva Las Vegas

Our new family car, well not really but Nick loved this car.

Nick and Anna hanging in the pool at Red Rock Casino



My big boy Nick helping Anna not drown she could almost touch but needs to grow just a little more. No pictures of Mike and I in the pool it was a little too cool when we went but the kids were fine. Mike and I stayed in the jacuzzi the whole time.



Anna loved the bathtub because of the t.v. on the wall. She spent most of her time in the bathroom in the bathtub with a pillow. If only we had this at home, then I could get her to watch t.v. She never watches t.v. so I can get stuff done. She even wanted to sleep in the bathtub I thought about it but I finally got her out of the tub.




Nick and Anna taking a bath after swimming they haven't done that since Anna was a baby. As you can see by the picture they watched t.v. the whole time. (they had their bathing suits on)
Anna washed Nicks hair and then Nick washed Anna hair it was so sweet.

More Mother's Day Fun

The many faces of Anna


I like the casual look on her face more relaxed




No light in room just flash with diffuser


She wanted the Easter egg's in the picture


Finally got the light up enough. Playing with the flash is hard than I thought but I am getting use to it and Anna is a great model for me.

Mothers Day


Because it was Mother's Day, they all did what I wanted well sort of, I was looking for a nice picture of Mike with the kids,but this is what I got.

I like this but Mike is holding Nick down, because he kept trying to leave.



My baby's they make all the work I do worth it because they are so loving.


This is my first picture taken with the new diffuser I made.


Anna's first picture taken with my new diffuser. I love how there are no harsh spots of light. Well this mother's day is starting out great. I got to take pictures of my family and then breakfast. And then later today get to go out to dinner with my family and get to see family members I haven't seen in a long time.
