Just A Few of My Favs!!!

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the trip. I just couldn't wait to get my hands on them to share! The rest of them, I tagged onto the slide show below. Enjoy!

Preston and His Guitar

I just love this photograph! It was taken in Colorado during his "bluegrass phase". The Hand Me Downs were recording their CD under Drew Emmitt (name drop!...had to do it), and they hired a photographer to gather some images for the cover. He looks so young in the picture , and so adorable!...He still is.

Edisto Beach 2008

Well we now have one more Edisto beach trip under our belt! All in all, we had a load of fun. Amelia of course loved every ounce on the "beach scene"...except for getting sunscreen in her eyes a few times. She flailed about in the ocean estatically, and would have simply gone away with the current if we had let go. She absolutely had her share of mouthfulls of sand. I think she liked the crunching feeling of it in her teeth much more than the feeling of it "on the other end". But really, it all was so fun. Preston got some time with each other, and we definately loved seeing family. My brother Robert came to see us on Thursday and stayed til Sunday. He was fresh off the plane back from his final semester in Chile that earned him his well deserved MBA. Yeah Uncle Bob!!! Anyway, it was all so fun, and I am still waiting on some of the final pictures of the trip from others to share. I will definately be sharing those soon!

Piggy-Tails

Ummmm, just a bit too tight!

Much better.

Pool Party!

Amelia had a little friend, Charlize over to play while her mom worked. We had a blast. The two of them ended up being natural buddies, although Charlize is way better at communicating and getting around. Nevertheless, we had fun. We hit the nature center, napped, and then spent the afternoon in the baby pool. Amelia pitched a royal fit when it was time to go in (it had only been 2 hours in the pool).

Get Pumped!...'So You Think You Can Dance' is Fast Approaching!

Bill Shannon is this amazing dancer/choreographer who has suffered all his life from from what's called legg-calve-perthes disease. It's a degenerative disease in which his hips are no longer able to bear weight. He turned his disability into a real opportunity. How cool is he. His My Space is www.crutchdoc.com

The Nature Center...Again

I hit the Nature Center again on Saturday with Amelia. We met my friend Sam, and her little boy Simon there. The weather was great, and the two kids had so much fun. Amelia got a "friendly" warning from the baby chicks to not stick her finger in the cage. We all learn the hard way every once in a while. I look forward to spending lots of time there this summer!
