A few more Vacation shots

Ok, so I actually have a billion more to share. This will get us started:) Here's a few of my faves.




So, here's my big girl getting ready to go kayaking with Aunt Carrie in the OCEAN!!! She was thrilled and did great! Here she is sporting her life jacket in a typical Hannah pose.
Getting ready to head out!
So brave!This is actually from day 2. I followed Lillian around with the camera most of the morning and ended up with a million back shots:)
She has a blast following around the little gray girl in front of her...
Think I put enough sunscreen on her???
Man...I put a lot of sunscreen on them! Anywho, they looked cute!
To be continued...

Vacay Day One

We love, love, love St. Simon's. This is the third year we have gone...Ryan went many times as a wee lad. This time, Aunt Carrie was able to go with us. We rented a car, based on the fact our hoopties (I just spelled check this word at blogger suggested "Hooters")probably wouldn't make it there and back, and the girls had to test out the trunk before we loaded up all of our junk, I mean, necessities.

Hannah begged to go to the beach the whole 5 hours down there. We arrived a little after 5, so we suited up and headed out. I wasn't sure how Lilian would react, because of a very unsuccessful sprinkler incident we had a month ago. She was a little hesitant to stand on the sand at first, but quickly adjusted her steps and seemed to enjoy herself. This is one of her many super model poses from the week. Not a fan of the ocean breeze.
Hannah was THRILLED!!! She ran, jumped and squealed all the way to the ocean the second her feet touched the sand. I'm diggin' her wind blown do as well:)
This is as far as Lillian would go without having to be pulled. She's a strong little thing, btw.
Ryan tried to "explain" to her how fun the ocean is. Notice her little foot. She wasn't a sand fan either...THAT day.
Remember "Funny Farm"? You know the "cue the deer" scene? That's how I felt SSI greeted us that afternoon. A few minutes after getting out in the ocean, 2 dolphins were "cued" the leap 20 feet from us and about 5 minutes later, after a brief sprinkle, a rainbow appeared out over the ocean. Pretty neat:) All of that ended pretty quickly when Hannah fell into a sand castle pit and bruised her entire face. Oh well.

More to come later. We had a blast!

Is it bad that I think it's funny...

There are several things my girls do that make me laugh. I know I shouldn't, but come on! Lillian is only 17 months old and sings "Poker Face" (pah pah pah pah pah pay)...now that's funny. Well, ok maybe not, but really it is and you know it! Hannah sings it too. Constantly. A couple of days ago, she said, "Mommy, I'm going to be on Ellen next week". My response, "You are?". "Yes, I'm going to sing Poker Face." Funny. I never talk about Lady Gaga. Not sure that I've said her name in front of Hannah...EVER. Today, she come riding into the kitchen on a tricycle with my strapless bra on top of her head. "Mommy, I'm Baby Gaga." Now, THAT'S FUNNY!

Wedding fun!

There are no words to describe how beautiful and perfect the wedding was! Here are a few pics I snapped...congratulations Christen and Hartley!

I snapped this one of Lillian...it was very fuzzy so I played around with some editing tools.

"No more preschool? Oh my world!"

Yes, that was Hannah's response as we left PPP&K for the last time Wednesday afternoon. It was a great year! She had a blast, learned tons and had great teachers and friends. Here are some pics from her graduation program and last day of school.

Lillian "celebrating" with a cookie in her mouth in H's classroom after the program.
What's in here? Surely it's for me.

Our God is so GREAT, so STRONG and so MIGHTY...


Hannah with Ms. Heather and Ms. Shannon

She was SOOOOO proud of herself! I can hardly stand this one...she's so cute:)

Check out the legs.

Last day of school...saying goodbye to Ms. Shannon. She wasn't sure how to "feel".

Taking a ride in the raft:)

Enjoying a treat at the end of the year party.

Thank you PPP&K for the last 2 years! Kindergarten...here we come!
