This is Called and IPhone Dump

Ok, most of the following photos were taken with my phone and I am now uploading them to my computer and putting them on the blog!  This is literally like 1/16th of what I have taken but seriously who wants to see every iphone photo I have?  Not me.  This is also an attempt to just throw up a blog post because it's been way too long.

Macey playing dress up for the first time in a long time!

Mack pretty much follows her around constantly

Playing in the rain...

Climber...

We Karaoked on Dave's birthday and I only took like 2 photos.... lame.....  I was too busy singing my guts out I guess!

Best buddies...

Kennedy and her busy boy cousins...

Crown beach with the cousins..

We do love love love having cousins close!

I've been getting up at 5:45am 4 times a week to exercise.  It's the only time I can make it work.  Here's a shot I took on my way home one morning of the sunrise!

Penny got stuck on the stairs...

Macey sewed a bag on her new sewing machine....

Logan and I had to take a hike to fine the compass he lost on the same hike a few days earlier... gorgeous place we live in.

We found the compass!

Logan was Odyssius (sp?) in his drama class play

Lately whenever I go to check on the kids at night Logan is asleep with his headphones on... guess what he listens to every night?  Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat- I love it!

My handsome brother who I miss (on a mission in Mexico)

Penny sleeps in Lexi's bed with her until about 11pm when we go to bed... then she goes in the crate.  It's pretty cute to see her cuddled up with Lexi.

More snuggly Penny...

Dave driving his bug... the face of happiness...

Logan's larger than life wart... and I"m proud to say it is officially gone after much consistent effort from ME!

Penny has already grown a ton!

Macky and Penny!

Lex and Penny...

hiking and climbing with friends

That's all I've got for now.

Maybe one day soon I'll get back to blogging real life.. I hope so!

A Few Favorites from Our Christmas Card Session

These are all self-timer, taken by me, taken by Dave, or taken by Lexi. Someday I'll pay for real pictures from another photographer.  Actually,  I have twice but both times did not turn out well so I'm not going to waste my money when I can do a decent job myself.  It would be nice to have some close-ups of the whole family and some fun candids sometime though. 

This time we got out of the house a bit late and were going to miss the sun!  We pulled into the spot where I wanted to shoot and there was a teense of sun left way up on a hill.  Even though it was completely muddy I made everyone run/hike up the hill and just as we arrived into the sun it went behind the hills and was gone.  I was sad but I think the photos turned out great even without sun.  And by some miracle no one got TOO muddy.

Merry Christmas from the Harlows!
