What a week... what a week!

I just realized that I have not posted in almost a MONTH!
How did that happen?
So there is a lot going on.
I shot two weddings in AZ last week and had an absolute blast.
I spent Sunday drinking Pina Coladas laying in the sun ALL DAY in
my parents backyard paradise.
I came home to SNOW and lots of it! I've already lost my tan. :(
Tim left for a business trip the day after I returned. While he was gone:
Collin fell on the stairs and gouged his lip like I've never seen. Lots of blood!
I was asked to shoot a wedding in CA in September and about fell out of my chair with excitement... and fear! :)

Collin sounded out his first words- CAT, MAT, SAT and HAT.
It is adorable- he can sound the word out but then just stares at me like... I know I just did something big but what is it I just did?
He doesn't realize those sounds make a word!! Hooked on Phonics rocks!
He went from knowing his letters and letter sounds to sounding out words within a week of opening that box!

Kayla had her last drama class today before the big play next weekend!!
She is doing great!
She is learning to do a cartwheel in gymnastics which shes wanted to learn for a year now. It's taking her some time but I know she'll get it one day!

Our puppy,Lucy is making her debut Wednesday, April 12th.
All reports I've gotten from the breeder and vet say that she is so sweet, very nice and a little quieter and more shy than her siblings. Perfect, if you ask me!

We went to see a Paleontologist speak today about the Tylasaurus. Very intersting!
Tim continues his tour of the country, as he was in Portland this week and Richland, Washington and heads to Nebraska this coming week.

Lastly, Michael Johns got voted off of Idol. What the #$&^?????
