Ashli - Week Eleven

Once again, I didn't think I had many photos for the week, but when I downloaded them onto the computer, they magically appeared!  I got six out of the seven, which is pretty amazing since it was a summer/beachy theme and it finally rained here for two and a half days!  I'm not complaining though, the rain was VERY much needed.  Here are my photos!

Water: I took the boys and my neighbor's two daughters to the water park on Wednesday.  We all had a great time, but Quinn was especially adorable enjoying all the different features in the splash park.

Checking out the tunnel

I love how the water looks so crystal clear and refreshing in this one.  Not a great expression on his face but very Quinn-ish

Sun: Glad I captured these photos during the first few days of the week when there actually was some sun!

Using the pinhole feature on my camera

I know this isn't technically sun, but I just love this photo and had to include it.  The kids were playing with water beads and I was playing with my camera - pretty neat huh?

Sand: Self explanatory, and the only photo I had to kind of stage. 

We were supposed to go to the beach on Thursday but it rained all day, so the sand box will have to suffice

Barefoot: This is probably NOT what you were expecting for barefoot, but hey, he's got six of 'em and he's not wearing any shoes!

I think this is either a young cicada or a leaf hopper.  Can't be sure.  Not a grasshopper because it doesn't have the big back legs.  Anybody know?

Growing: My boys are growing up too fast!  Their first trip to the dentist went better than I could have imagined!

Caleb went first - he was a little nervous in the waiting room, but he did great

I had to stop taking pictures because Quinn kept trying to look at the camera

Chilling: I took these two photos while were taking one of our daily walks around the neighborhood.

We stopped to rest in the shade for a minute because Quinn was tired of pedaling his tricycle

Caught this little guy with an acorn in his mouth - just hanging out on our neighbor's driveway. I like how he's silhouetted against the green leaves.
