I've started a second photography class. Week 1's assignment is due Wednesday and I am already feeling overwhelmed. Thankfully Caleb was willing to "pose" for a head-shot for me today and I didn't have to resort to bribery or arm twisting - he just walked outside and then actually smiled for some!

Brynn's birthday present from Nana and Papa. It is as long as she is!! But she loves it and for a girl who currently wants to be "an Army person" when she grows up, it is a good and safe option!

Our last day at the beach... the week flew by!!! Here is Price playing ladder ball for the millionth time. I will admit it is fun and addicting though my competitive children get a bit too celebratory and/or tantrum throwing at times.

I told Evan he could stay in the hot-tub longer if he let me take a few pictures! The hot-tub is a favorite for all our kids though with all of them plus others in one at a single time, the relaxation factor of it goes away quickly. They all think goggles are a hot-tub necessity just to paint a clearer picture!

This was taken out the back seat car window on the 4-wheel-drive-access-only beach in the OBX. It was awesome, even in the misty rain!

Surf Girl Brynn in action. She thinks she can go out far in the ocean. One time when I called her back she said, "But Mom, I am six now!" as if turning six makes one swim like a lifeguard. LOL.

On vacation at the beach this week... most of us anyway. This picture turned out to be the last one I will get of Caleb here because he headed home after finding out he made the 9/10 Allstar baseball team! He was so excited!

Fun times at the pool... the best part of summer! This one is on vacation in N.C.

Caleb had his first swim meet today... a practice one. I didn't get any race pictures because I was timing a lane but this is Caleb pre-swimming with his two heat numbers "sharpied" on his hand. He did really well in both and that was exciting; he was SO nervous beforehand!

She did not want her picture taken and was grumpily walking away but she is still cute...

Lots of kids = lots of time in the car!

Have I mentioned before how happy I am that the cast is waterproof??!!

Happy 6th Birthday Brynn!

Nice, Caleb. Nice.

Nyah's last day at her gym/music class at Romp 'n Roll. She has loved it. Hopefully we can return in the fall.

No pool today! Lots of storms around.

No picture for the day. Not sure what happened. Should have had my assistant Brynn fill in. This picture is from June 3rd... she is watching the storm with me.

Price and a teammate (and close friend who will be going to the new school with him... woo hoo!)following the last game of the season.
