Sunset



What a stud. I bet your
husband can't do THIS!








Or
this. (this one's my favorite!)



Grandma and Grandpa- in
LOVE. :) (thanks for posing for me, mom & dad!) Don't you love how
she has to stand on her tiptoes to kiss her hubby? Don't worry mom! I
know how you feel!







Gracie,
who really does have TWO legs.



Gracie
and Millie...and a cargo ship way in the distance.



All
5 (#6 was snuggled next to me, snoozin' in the Moby Wrap while I was
taking these). Josiah was done after this one.



Crazy kids!





Gracie
doing cartwheels.
 

Gabe doing cartwheels.



Gracie
& Millie jumping waves.



Goodbye sun!



Still
a little bit of light left to get these as we were leaving.



And
enough time to get a little dirty.






These guys live 200-300 yards from us. I haven't seen them in a couple of years (mainly because I don't drive in their direction). They were out tonight though so I got a picture of them while I was standing on the side of the road. And you thought I had a big family!






(I know it's not the greatest picture, but they were a long way from the road & I had to crop in quite a bit so you could see them)


Meet the Roosevelt's- the Roosevelt Elk, the largest subspecies of elk in North America.

Roosevelt Elk and The Girlies

A little bit worried here.





I love this one of big sis smooching Julianna's cheek while she's caught mid-smile.





Mamacita y su hermana:





Another:





I love this one:





Mid-yawn:





Millie's turn, not quite as proficient in the head-supporting department as big sis:





And one of just Millie, who was quite done with pictures. Can you tell?


Bangs.





Notice anything
different about the girls?



I had fun playing with this one. Warmed it a bit (although it was taken as the sun was going down so it was warm to begin with) and added a texture. I call this one "Wish". :)





And one more of Millie:





They have BANGS now.



And here's one of Sassy Gracie, who was not in the mood for pics tonight:




Julianna, a bit
worried.


Love this one. Caught
mid-smile while being smooched by big sis.


 
 

One of my favorites of
Miss Julianna!
 

Sleepy yawn.
 

Don't
worry- Julianna's head is still attached to her body. :)
 


 SO done with
pictures.



Talked her into one
more.
 
 

Grandpa & Julianna-
quite comfy.
 
 
The children
decided to have a car wash at our house (where we have no traffic).
Grandma & Grandpa were customer number 3 (I was one and two). They
even charged them $3!
