Someone asked why I haven't posted beach pictures yet. I have 2 words for you:

Digital and Budget.

I have not gone digital therefore I have to get pictures developed then placed on a disk so I can upload and post in my spare time.

I have not gotten my pictures developed yet because of the new budget in place with my new part time job. The one that allows me so much more spare time.

Don't worry, I dropped them off today so sometime next month you will get to see the good times had at the beach.

Laine asks me daily, "can we go to the beach house and play in the sand".

He has no idea how much I want to jump in the car and go. Someday soon, little buddy. Someday soon.

Happy Birthday Jackson!!!

I'm so behind on posting pictures, updates and thoughts. I do have a lot to share. Now that I'm part time, expect more updates. And if you don't find them....e-mail me and tell me to get to it.

These photos are actually a few weeks before his actual b-day when we were visiting Colby's family in Seattle. As you can see....the cake was a total hit. He is his mother's son, after all.

Beach Time!!

I love the beach. I love the sand, the sea, the smells, the sun....It's safe to say I'm a beach girl. So I'm excited to be leaving tomorrow for a week at one of my favorite beaches. I've been packing for almost two hours now. Things that used to take me no time at all have taken way longer than I deem necessary. Let's blame that on the kids. I mean...seriously. This is how I packed for the beach 10 years ago....



And this is what I've got so far....and I'm positive I'm forgetting something.....




Something tells me I won't get to drink Fuzzy Navels before noon and read trashy romance novels either. Oh well...these faces are worth it......






Wouldn't you agree?


PS...Be thankful I didn't show you the bathing suit comparison.

Apples of my eyes...
