Small hiatus

Hey there, long time no see! I have been insanely neglectful over in this corner of the world, so today is going to be a mass catch up! Be prepared for a TON of pictures! Since my last post we have had a small family reunion, I started a photography business, and Rory made his first holy communion.
Our kids with their Grandparents. Fuad's parents came to visit for Spring break

The cousins all hanging out playing in the river together

The kids got to meet their other cousins Gabe and Declan

Rebecca's 6th Birthday

Another Birthday gone by. This year we had a 'My little pony' party at the house. I have never seen our home quite so covered in pink! The girls all had a blast though. We did temporary tattoos, Pony rides, lots of snacks (mostly the marshmallows) and we sang, and danced, and laughed! Time is flying by and we are all doing our best to love up every last moment of it! Happy 6th Birthday Rebecca Erin. We love you!

                         The girls all loved brushing the ponies!


                 All the girls took turns riding 'Magic' the pony.


                        Time for cake, and fun with friends.

Oh what bliss, Rebecca's turning 6

Tuesday we got a decent size ice storm, big enough to shut down the south (which really doesn't take as much as you might think) anyway, it was cold and pretty gross out, but it was a perfect opportunity to get Becca's Birthday pictures done. She was home, and I had nothing else to take care of since we were stuck at home. I love how these turned out!!! Rebecca had a blast, as per usual. and by the end was playing a round or 2 of 'lets hide the stars!" It is such fun having a girl. I never thought I would EVER say it.... but I really love that she is so girly too! She is reading, and writing, and growing everyday. We love you Becca boo!

365 days: Days 1-12

So this year I am working on a 365 which I have tried, but never successfully completed. The catch to this one is that it has to be done with a camera phone, which seems a lot more handy then having to get my big girl camera all the time. It is just a regular, capturing everyday life project. So here is hoping I can see it to the end! I will be adding them to this post all month long. So you will have to keep checking back as they are added. Wish me luck!
