Family time photo shoots

Here are some pictures from the past few days.   (You know I couldn’t resist for long, right?)

                                                                         

Avery loves playing outside and will take any opportunity to climb something.  The steps, the swingset bars, the ladder on the swingset.  Makes it difficult to relax in my sweet new pink adirondack chair!                                                                                                  

                                            

She was making a face here and I was copying her.  She’s much cuter!

                                           

Mux was seeking shade.  Must be the fur coat.

                                                                                                     

Another evening boat ride!   I miss the days when he would smile nicely.  Now I have to “catch” his smiles with the  camera.  As soon as he sees me with the camera though, its all over.                                                                                                                            

                                        

Avery likes to make random calls on her dad’s blackberry.                                            

                                              

How come no one wants to smile with me?!                                                              

                                           

Enjoying the ride!  Pontunia the II drives herself.                                                            

                                             

Caught a smile from Avery!  She’s smiling at her dad.  Duh.                                         

                                 

Still my little Green Monster baby!  She hears the blender going and comes toddling into the kitchen.                                                                                                                           

                            

Dylan grabbed the point and shoot (after I took this picture of Avey) and started snapping away this afternoon.  Some were okay, some were not.  One would have been really good (Avery was actually smiling WITH me) but he cut off half our heads.  When I looked at the pictures he took, I said, “Dylan, you have to look at what you are taking a picture of!  You cut off our heads!”  And he said, “No, I didn’t!  Avery still has her whole head!”  Here are some of the better ones he took:

                              

Well, thats all for now!  There is a campfire taking place next door that I’m supposed to be attending, so I better put on my mosquito gear and head over.  G’night!
