Random Photos

Just a few shots from my phone the last month plus.
 
How we spent our Valentine's Day. Big Al's bar, Shuffleboard, Darts, Basketball, Skibowl, and Whack and Mole. Awesome. Then Stanfords for a very late night happy hour.

Not so little, but younger sister maybe?


Silly Samantha "playing" with her toys in the bath, lining them all up.


Golf lesson at the golf expo


Sitting in her big girl seat. She loves it!


Every time I see this picture I am reminded of The Shinning... Jack... Here's Audrey!

Sister Love

I swear they were playing together



This is how you get ready with a baby...

The Zoo with Grandma

For second Tuesday earlier this month we took advantage of the weather and headed to the zoo with my mom for the cheap entrance fee and to try and see the lion cubs finally. We were lucky enough to see the cubs, but there were so many people there (as expected) and so much sun that I had horrible reflections on the glass that the photos didn't turn out great. Sam was happy that she got to finally see the Simba's. Lol. I however do not intend to go to the zoo again any time soon. It's obviously a mess with all the construction going on for the elephant exhibit, but my goodness. We walked along a makeshift path towards the elephants following a sign that said the elephant exhibit was open. When we got there the elephants were nowhere to be seen. They were all in their new area, great for them, bad for visitors. You had to peak through the cracks in the covered fence. Not easy for a 3 year old. I love seeing the elephants, and usually you can always count on seeing them since they have a few and between the upper area, inside and lower level... I'm ready for the construction to be over.
 
With my long lens on all the way zoomed in this was the best I could get of the elephants.

Such reflection of all the visitors in the sun. But we got to see them before they were all grown at least.











Always seem so fragile... those skinny legs!

All the animals seemed to love soaking up the sun.

Bogue Family Reunion

Just a couple pictures. I was busy with children, but it was good to see people we only see once a year otherwise.

I tried to shrink down as to not block anyone... didn't really work. Gotta love the camera timer feature.

Brothers!
