Thunderbird Stroller Skate

We went to the roller rink this morning for Stroller Skate and the kids had a great time.  By the time we were ready to leave, Sarah was off of the wall and doing quite well.

Excuse the black and white and some of the color/red eye in these pictures…Our camera is on its last leg and Uncle Sam (our tax return) may just bring us a new camera. 

Here are some of the pictures that didn’t turn out well, but I love…

***This writer program actually cleared some of them up when I loaded them in.  Sweet, but Uncle Sam may still be saying “Happy Tax” to us soon!

Apple Of My Eye…

Playing with the “popping of the eyes” thing…a little dramatic, but it is okay!

More Photoshop Phun

Corny Title…I know.  Even though I have had it for about a month, {and the fact that I’m teaching myself through trial and error}…I’m in L.O.V.E.!  Still trying to get the “popping of the eyes” thing down, but I think it is coming along quite well!

Park Break

The weather today is unseasonably warm, so we decided to go to the park on our way home from our errands.  And I was able to play with my Photoshop!  The first two are my favorites!

Holland Christmas

We went to Oklahoma for my family Christmas this weekend.  I always enjoy going to Oklahoma because it brings back so many of my childhood memories.  Sarah and Carson enjoyed playing with their cousins and we even got to see my cousin over webcam who is serving in Iraq. 

All of the little kids…
