Morning at the Park

Last weekend, we went to the park

with some Pallies from the North.

(I think they are telling mischievous secrets.)

Much fun was had.

Most of the time.

Except right at this particular moment:

This picture cracks me up.

Happy Memorial Day!

La Familia Vacation: Chapter 7

You thought that segment of my bloggishness was past, right? Perhaps in part because I told you it was. But... turns out I lied. More specifically, I hadn't uploaded pics for a while. Like... since the last day of our vacation. (Oops.) So, here are the last of the vacation pics. (For real this time!) Then on to what we've been up to since then. Because I know you are all just dying with anticipation, since life here is SO extraordinary.

1. Andrew takes Isaac for a jaunt.

2. Isaac takes Logan for a jaunt.

(With a little help from Abo.)

3. And, the moment we all eagerly anticipate whilst uploading pics from the Fam:

Surprise Pictures

Photography with this level of impressitude and stunnery can only come from one place. (You know who you are, Brandon, and we thank you from the bottom of our... feet.)

Simply astounding. I also particularly love this series, which illustrates quite lovelyly, a range of emotion from "Smile for the Camera" to "What on earth are you doing?"

And I also appreciate the precision with which the photographer follows the basic rules of photography. And just how, in general, this work is breathtaking.

Thank you, Nathaniel, for your astounding appearance as a worthy subject of photographic genius.

Mischief

Looks a bit proud of this mess, does he not?

I also want to make a note of some notable things, which went on whilst we were on vacation.

1.Nathaniel and Emily's 10th Anniversary!

(May 13)

This picture is not terribly recent.

2. The Parentals' 35th Anniversary!

(May 9)

This one is, similar to the above portrait, not terribly recent.

This one is also not terribly recent,

however, it is moderately to severely more recent than the previous.

Congrats to the happy couples!

No Faces in this one.
I just love this picture of snuggles for Grandpa.

And again, these pics are courtesy of Emily Photography,

as are many in my "book."

What can I say? This boy loves his tummy.




You wanted to share those shades, right?

La Familia Vacation: Chapter 4

I know a little boy who loves to play in the water.

As evidenced here.


And here.


And also here.

Similarly, I also know a couple of other little boys, in addition to the first little boy, who likewise love playing in the water as well.

As well as here.

Moreover, they also love sand too.

As noted here.
