Airport (back on August 1)

 

Every time we go to the airport with the train, Nick gets this shot of the girls.

Balloon animals

Nat's got a gig at a party for 4-year-old kiddos, today. She'll be making balloon animals. Here are some samples.

 

Look how little our friends were 3.9 years ago. http://thekcompanyblog.blogspot.com/2009/01/babies.html

Sliding

Kira slides at the festival at her school last week. Fun! Not bad pictures from the little iPhone!

Monday morning treat

It rained early Monday and this is what the girls and I saw driving in to school / work. The photo was shot out the window while I pulled over. It was raining so I tried to do it quickly and without getting the camera wet. I was mildly successful at being quick and dry, but the picture is, well, a little um, poorly framed.

 

As taken by the iPhone. 

Enhanced a little with a brightener effect on the iPhone.

Guess who?

 

One hint, she's the tallest.  

Coale

Live long and prosper

I forgot to post this one... It's still a good one!

 

Our anniversary...

On our anniversary, Nick and I went to a park where the girls like to fly this plane. We thought we'd see if it was fun.

 

 
 

 

 

Yup.  The girls were a little sad we didn't take them to the park.  Guess we'll need to go there again sometime soon!

Sweeping.

 

A friend of ours has cats who love to be brushed with the broom.

 

 

Silly kitty! 

 

Heh.

 

He really likes this.

Scratch my head....

 

Nice....

Hay, why'd she stop petting me? (Note the horse joke at the beginning of the sentence.)

Happy Anniversary!

 

Nick and Gerard looking so handsome!

 

One of my favorite memories, while walking around with my new handsome husband at the reception, is hanging a spoon on my nose. (Yes, he knew what he was in for when he married me.  I think I did some other silly things in the first two years we knew each other.)  The man in a light (khaki maybe?) shirt with a spoon hanging from his nose is Mark, my supervisor for 10 years.  (Larry, Patti's husband (now) is on the left.)

 

Then, I walked around the reception with a spoon in my hand.

Heh!

(Here you can see what 14 years later looks like.)

(P.S. These are photos taken from regular cameras or disposable camera.   Then, a picture of the picture was taken by the iPhone. #nothighquality)

Hard at work on her first book report

 

Here's Tia hard at work on her first book report, ever.  It's second grade!  We do a lot of book reports.

Pancakes

Vegan pancakes by Dad! Yum.

Kitty in the window

No-no looks out the window and watches little critters.

Spoons

An important skill for weddings...
