A Celebration

We celebrated our little girl's third year with us.
I cannot believe she is growing up so much.
I thought she was my baby.

Lots of presents were given - fit for a "princess",
and some non-traditional desserts were devoured like
a yummy fruit pizza and this creation that was a big hit.

I guess we will have to do it all again next year
but I would rather not.

I don't want her to grow up anymore.

Red, White and Blue

The other Red, White and Blue
I LOVE to see this time of year.

Blue Water and Skies,
White Clouds,
Red Rock.

It doesn't get much better than this!

Adventures

Lately, we have been adventuring in...

- Hiking -

Where the weather was perfect
but there were a few too many dogs on the trail
for my cynophobia kids.

- Being a Princess -

Where who doesn't want to dress up and
be treated like Royalty all day
and then have fun splashing around in the water!


- Friend Gatherings -

Where the name of the game was
Minute To Win It
and they had a lot of fun
just being together.

- Water Sports -

Where they are lucky enough to have an Uncle
with a boat so they can conquer
the water and the waves.

That Computer Is So Old

On this,
our official first day of summer vacation,
we were cleaning out a storage room
and found the first computer,
that as a newly married couple,
my husband and I had bought.

I heard at least 3 times.
WOW - that computer is sooooo old.
Really.

Sure it is not as fast,
nor does it hold as much memory,
and it is quite larger,
and has a lot more equipment than our Mac,
but it is NOT ancient.

So Mr. T took the honor of hooking it up
to see if it would run.
Then he found some old CD-Rom computer games
and this is what I found them doing
for most of the morning.
