Videos

Mallory & Morgan at the driving range. Great shot by Mal & Morgan had to take a potty break!

I was quite impressed with the girls since this was only the second time they have ever been. I love how Mallory tries to do it correctly & Morgan uses her brute strength!

As you can tell not much going on this spring break but Case did help me organize a bit!!

I only had to show him once that Tupperware can also be a hat, he tried them all :)

Family pictures

When I got pregnant with Case I signed up for a portrait package that included maternity, newborn, 6 month and year photos. I just got back the proofs from our last session. A lot more difficult to get all 5 of us smiling but there were some really great ones.

If you would like to check them out follow steps below. They are only up through Monday, FYI.

More pics from Cali trip

Here are the pictures I took with my camera from our trip to see J & K.

Here is the 18th green at Pepple Beach as seen from the beach in Carmel

Below is a scene off of Hwy 1

In the distance you can see the bridge we had just been over. There were film crews on the side of the road too which was cool.



More breathtaking views




Kenna and Leslie




Here was the bagpiper at Spanish Bay- felt like I was back at a school pep rally...go Highlanders!




Below is the Lodge at Pebble Beach. The 2010 US Open was played here


18th green at Pebble Beach




Below are a few shots from 17 mile road. In the backgroud is the lone Cypress Tree which is the symbol of Pebble Beach.




Here is a picture of the type of houses or should I say mansions that line 17 mile road. We wanted to go knock on a door and just ask what these people did. Breathtaking homes!



One of the look outs. You can stop at all these different points along 17 mile road. I liked this one to see all of the seals lounging!




Even though the weather was a tad bit chilly(40 and raining at a place that averages 300+ days of sunshine a year and average temp is 68-70!!) we had the most wonderful time. I wish we could have stayed longer but I will take it. Here's to hoping we can visit the Gs in their next destination... Austria!!! How awesome would that be :)

Best Friends & the beach

Our old neighbors/BFFs moved to Pacific Grove, CA a little over a year ago. This past weekend Lonnie & I were fortunate enough to get to pay them a visit!!

Friday night we got in and like always K was the most gracious host. She had made a wonderful meal & we so excited to be there.


Although the weather wasn't great we still got to see the awesome scenery. Here is the lone cypress tree at Pebble Beach. This can be seen from 17 mile road that we took.

YouTube Video

Here is the bagpiper that plays at Spanish Bay(another amazing course in the area). He normally plays while walking the 18th green every night into the sunset but weather didn't allow for that.


Sunday the weather was beautiful and this was my favorite photo on Hwy 1. Amazing this was taken with my phone!





Right before we had to leave we went to Carmel. In the distance behind Lonnie & I is the 18th green at Pebble Beach.


I have other awesome photos off my camera that will be in my next post. Thanks again to J & K! We miss you guys tons & were so thankful for the visit :)

I love blogpress!

I take a ton of pictures and videos on my iPhone so I am so excited that I downloaded blogpress because it allows me to put those on my blog in an instant! So now I might have a lot more posts!! Here is a random collection of pics and videos from my phone.



Case looking for the snow on our "snow day" without snow


Don't see any but window tastes good :)-


I like to color like my sisters


Beautiful day at the park

Decided to learn to climb up stairs and go down slide face first, over and over


Girls wrestling but stopped for a quick pose


Crazy, static hair!!

Happy Valentine's

For Valentine's we decided to take the kids to a Madison family favorite: Luby's! It was yummy and not crowded at all. When we got home Lonnie surprised all of us girls with our own bouquet of flowers. He chose pink for Morgan and purple for Mallory to go with their favorite colors. He also got each of them a stuffed animal. I cracked up because he got Morgan a bear with devils horns and a cape & she said, Mom- daddy got me a vampire bear!! We also decided from now on Valentine's would be daddy & his girls special day and mine & Case's. This works out for us as our anniversary is a few weeks before.
