Aquarium {1/14/2011}

Filed Under: Family, Photography

Carsyn, Dustyn, my mother-in-law and I, met Kelly, her mom and 3 of her 4 children at the Aquarium. These photos are better then last time, but still not as good as I would like. I am using my external flash next time. I had a lot of fun hanging out with them. Can’t wait to do it again. It had to be cut short on Friday because we ended up going to the truck and tractor pulls that night. Which was an hour and a half away. I will be making a post about that later. Hope everyone had a great weekend and that you have a good week.

The three older kids.

Sweet Lydia. She looked at me funny when I took her picture. She was like why is this strange lady taking my photo. ha ha.

Adorable Nate. He was seriously such a great baby. He is only 10 days older then Carsyn.

Dustyn and Chris checking out the turtles. I never got a good picture of Chris, he was always on the move.

Kellys mom.

Some of you have seen this, but I LOVE this photo.

A picture they had on the wall.

Kelly and I with our baby boys.

They have this neat tunnel with mirrors at the end.

Sweet Carsyn. He did good chilling out in the Boba the whole time.

Hope you enjoyed my photos. Have a great week everyone!

    I really like the pictures. So glad you had fun. I don't know if I would take an external flash to the aquarium. Maybe if I was going by myself. Definitely not with kids. I used to take the camera more places, and then one time, Kaishon said "Mom, I like when you just look around and have fun with me." one day. And it really clicked. I mean, big whoop if I get a perfect picture of a moose at Cabellas. How about I just have fun with my kid and love the moments we are in the store. It is still a struggle not to bring it all the time, but really, more than anything I want my kid to have a happy childhood. I don't want to say 'here look at all these perfect pictures with perfect lighting that could be in a gallery.' I want to say, 'look, here we were having fun : )'

    Sarah, these turned out great:) I kept changing the settings on my camera... so some of mine are decent and the others are cute scenes but blurry or crudy coloring;) And I have a blurry one of Dustyn and almost none of Chris as well:) Those busy boys;) Good to finally meet you and maybe we can get together soon:) You all are really sweet:)

July was an amazing month for the most part. Kenny July was an amazing month for the most part. Kenny and I celebrated being married 18 years in the mountains, and the kids had a lot of Summer fun. Unfortunately we did lose Kenny’s step dad, the kids Grampy, Billy. I’m so glad I decided to do project 365 again this year. I really do love looking back on all the photos, even if most are taken with my phone. Just want to take more photos of the kids with family members.

Carsyn went swimming and Prestyn and Annie had fun lining up dominoes.
