And we're back...

After a nice long hiatus of repeatedly failing technology I am back and Maude (that's what I named my camera) is better than ever!

We had a wonderful holiday weekend for the Fourth of July holiday spent lounging with some of our favorite people and eating way too much of our favorite foods!
We started our weekend hanging out by the pool with Uncle Wes, Aunt Heidi, (or Nanny and Parran, depending on which child is speaking) and the girls' best cousin Brody. Marley, who used to be terrified of the "big pool" has now taken to it like a fish to water. (Pun intended)

Kenzie on the other hand was not feeling so aquatically inclined. Okay, every time I look at this pic I crack up.

Still not feeling it...

Okay... maybe if I hug him, he will leave me alone?

Free at last! And a nummy baby belly too! I can't hide this baby under the water!
Really - does he seriously think five minutes will change my mind?

Finally Papa gave up. And all was well, see, if an idea is not Kenzie's then it is just not a good idea. And bad ideas just do not happen in Kenzie's world. Case and point. Cookies. A good idea. Really. Good. Idea.

After noshing on way too many cookies, and burgers, and hot dogs, and slices of chocolate cake - a bunch of our favorite friends and family went up the street to the levee to watch the fireworks over the Mighty Mississippi.

I was stoked to finally get some low light photos that didn't look as if I had too much to drink!

We spent Sunday lounging around enjoying these awesome ladies. I hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing weekend as well.

Yay! It is so good to be back!
