Family pics...a work in progress

Notice how these family pics are only of the kids.  We're working on it.

Beauties, Cuties and big girl beds

Here are a few pictures of the amazing horses at the parade this year.  I wish I'd gotten a better picture of this massive black one.  Does anyone know if they are Andalusians?

 Notice the palomino in the back!  Too bad I didn't notice him until I only had a rear angle.

 A shot of the cute things Auntie Holly made for Dessa and Ella, with adorable models.

Here is the new bed.  

 Under the bed

 Dessa's "new" big girl bed.  After we did all the work to arrange and clean everything, I was looking at it all, and it was nice.  But I don't yet like it as much as it used to be, but I think it's because now it is a big girl room.  *sob*

 There is a pull-out keyboard thing or drawer under the desk and the girls put their play "re-typerator" (keyboard) on it.

Swimwear photo shoot

Lily says, "These are just some of my moves."

Dessa

Just a few cute pics of Dess I found on the camera I haven't downloaded from for months.  Dess know how to work it!

It's so easy now!!!

Yay!  I can get pictures on here! 

 If only I could telepathically order my photos from my camera to the computer...

 It would be so simple...

 But that will never happen...

 We're finished here.

Still trying to learn to love the mac

Here are a few pictures from our Christmas in MT.  Such beautiful winter weather!  I'm still working on figuring out the mac, so hopefully this will not be too painful to repeat.

 Look at my adorable little niece!  And my adorable sister-in law (and spirit).

Hey, it worked!  It wasn't painful!  Next time I complain about trying to download pictures to our web page, tell me, "export."  That's the command I need.  Can't ever remember that one.

Port Townsend

We had a lovely trip to Port Townsend last week.  The weather was beautiful.  We spent our time visiting old friends, playing on the beach, collecting tons of shells and we even got in a little schoolwork.  Here are a few photos of our super cool, old-fashioned hotel as well as the beach at Fort Worden.

 These first three hotel pictures are of the room we stayed in the last night of our stay.  Water Street Hotel had such cool rooms, we had to try two of them!
