So brave...

The other day we found ourselves headed to an outdoor mall to let the kids run around and go to the play-place area and as we're walking around we come upon this "thing" that was calling, nay, beckoning to Samantha. She begged, she pleaded, she even had her dad convinced that she was big enough to ride this death trap... what could I do?? I tried to protest, I pulled the "I'm the mom and I say NO" card, but in the end those sweet blue eyes looked up at me, she grabbed my hand and said "trust me mom, I'll be fine". So against my better judgement, I handed my little angel $5 and this is what she did...

A fish called Sam!!

It's sort of a given when you live in this desert land that your kids have to go through this right of passage called city league swim team. And I gotta say... BRING IT ON! Growing up I always wanted to be on a swim team, nevermind that my strokes often look like someone is having a seizure in the water, but none the less I wished I had tried.

Pacing back and forth... this is usually how you can find me and Scott on the sidelines. I LOVE IT!! She was pretty good last year for her first year, and this year she really did even BETTER...bringing home 3 first place ribbons. I actually only ended up bring my camera to one of her meets, shameful, I know. But in my quest to be ever more present in my kids' lives I didn't want to be all camera-crazed, jockeying for the BEST position with all the mom-tographers videoing their super-star athletes. R...

Random photos...

Whenever I have a photo shoot planned at my house in my little “studio” I always beg and plead with the kiddos to sit for just a second so that I can get the lights and set up just right before the actual shoot. Well, in doing that, I always end up with the most random of photos... ENJOY! [taken December 2011]
