Where to begin? Oh yeah, excuses. Sorry I don't update this page as often as I should. I wish I had good reason, but really I don't. I usually spend my free time doing stupid stuff and some important things end up falling by the wayside. Like Carter's tooth.
Sunset at South Beach just before...
A couple of weeks ago we had a bonfire on the beach with some friends. Good thing it was on the beach and there was nothing nearby to burn because that fire was a lot higher than we expected (like 10 feet high). Maybe it was the gasoline. Yeah, I brought the marshmallows, the other guy was in charge of the fire.
We had visits from Grandma Carter and Gramma and Papa Phillips within about a week of each other. Somehow we didn't get pictures of any of them, but the boys were in photo shoots the whole week - like them climbing on this turtle at the aquarium with Grama and Papa Phillips...
... and this hike with Grandma Carter
The hike is the Mike Miller trail in South Beach which ends at this little bridge over a pond. Suzanne couldn't wait for me to see it because last time she was there she saw tons of newts in the water. They swam up to the surface, curious to see what was causing that shadow.
This time they were not so curious. We were lucky to get this picture. I could have lied and said it was the Loch Ness monster.
We had an Easter egg hunt today (Saturday) in the primary room at church. I tried to take pictures of the actually hunting but all the camera was able to capture was a series of blurs and not-so-cute, ferocious-hunter glares from the boys. But here's a picture once they'd returned to normal.
The search party after the mayhem had calmed down.
Before you look at the next picture I want to be perfectly clear: We are NOT announcing anything. We are not pregnant. We have no intentions to become pregnant. The following picture reflects Carter's wishes and do not reveal anything about our family. Ok, that out of the way, Carter brought this home from kindergarten. His teacher wrote the caption. We thought it was adorable because Carter is CONSTANTLY talking about wanting a baby. Now he talks about it at school. The caption is "My family I want it to be like" then he wrote "Dad Mom McKay Carer (Carter) Baby"
Hope you all enjoy the pictures!
