more digi stuff

more cousin love

My sister-in-law Raquel stayed with us a couple of weeks ago and brought the four kids.  Ms. Hannah apparently had such a good time with her cousin Keaton that she cried all the way home because she missed him so much.  They definitely bonded on this trip.  Come to think about it, he was equally enamored with her when she was a baby.  (See yesterday's post) 

 I call it "cousin love".

flashback friday: cousin love

Baby Hannah is going to be 3 years old in a couple of days, but she's really not a baby anymore. We still call her that though, mostly because of Keaton.  He was obsessed with her forever.  He loved to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star or the ABC song to her. And if he saw baby girl things at the store, he would say, "Let's buy that for Baby Hannah."  He found her some cute little yellow sunglasses in Hawaii, so we had to buy them for her.  Check them out!  She was the coolest baby on the island.

going digital

Learning how to use Photoshop.  Finally figuring it all out.  

Made this cute layout today.  I like it!

obsessed with today's date

I also took pictures of what I was doing at 12:34:56 on 07.08.09.  I was looking at Tweets on Twitter.

Scrapbooking

And making Ramen Noodles for Keaton's lunch.

07.08.09.@10:11:12

I looked up in time to barely snap this photo of my computer.  After cleaning up the main level, dishes, laundry and taking Asia out I went to the computer.  This is where I was at 10:11:12 on 07.08.09.  I was watching a video on photo editing. 

I took a picture of my clock too.  It's really fast-like 10 minutes fast!  

tomorrow happens once in a century

family road trip

After much debate and being very indecisive, we decided to road trip to Vernal and hang out with Cory's family for the 4th of July.  We didn't even leave here until 12:30 and then stopped in Heber for a quick lunch at Wendy's. Arrived in Vernal around 3:30 and helped fix a yummy dinner at Sheri's house. Headed to the ballpark around 8:00 p.m. and let the kids run around and eat junk food until the fireworks started at 10:00.

It's a tradition for Sheri's family to bring a shrimp plate to the ballpark for them to share with their friends.  Everyone loved it, especially Jacek and the girl cousins.

Keaton loved the glow sticks and everyone ate lots of junk food.  It was a beautiful evening and it cooled off enough to snuggle under the blankets and enjoy the diamonds in the sky entertainment.  

happy independence day

                                          

flashback friday

This is Independence Day 2005!  I love Keaton's face.  Eli is my other child.  They are buddies even to this day.  Happy 4th of July to everyone!
