We're Back!!!

We got back from Colorado on Monday night. Our good friends had a new baby girl (their 4th) and we girls (Bubba couldn't make it) took off across the country on Saturday the 16th. We arrived at our destination Sunday night.

We had a lot of fun, for starters, there was a new baby to hold...
and hold and look at and hold

Then there were old friends to play with (until this new baby (we'll call her Topo) all the girls line up within 7 months of each other Beanie and Tibbie are 6 months apart, Bear and Gabbie are 4 months apart and Monkey Face and Coco are 7 months apart)...


There was a pool to play in and hours of Marco Polo with which to torture the neighbors...


And there was sitting around to do...because WOO WHEE was that pool cold...


And then there were the evenings. I brought two six packs of glow sticks for night time fun. What could be better than six little girls scampering through the grass after dark with glow sticks?? Well, an uncle who is FULL of ideas of how to capture the moment on camera, of course...I give you "Weird glow stick shots a la The Camera King" (formerly known on this and my other blog as M.F.)...

Here we have "Kids Leaping with Glow Sticks"


"Outlined Coco with a yellow glow stick"


"Spooky Fire-Starter-Lookin' Bear"


"Tibbie the Butterfly"


"Butterfly Bean"


"But I DIDN'T want Antenae"
and "I wanted Fairy Wings" (the series)

Oh and did I mention there was a baby to look at???


See ya around...
