Erin

 Embracing the Camera with Erin today.

I could write a book about that kid... and someday I don't doubt that someone will.  She is a one woman show.  A natural entertainer.

I am frequently told "that kid is a crack up".  She has a witty sense of humor and can drop it like it's hot while hula hooping.  She wants to be a famous singer someday although she doesn't really sing.  I think she just wants to be famous.

Just please, don't join the circus Erin.

Happy 4th

It was a very happy July 4th.  We felt right at home with old friends in a new city.  You can't beat a backyard BBQ on the Fourth of July.  Our kids met new kids and they played together like they've known each other forever.  The meal made up of individual family favorites came together perfectly.  There were no fireworks due to the fire dangers but honestly they were not missed.

So glad to be Embracing the Camera with Emily this morning.  Shortly after Erin snapped this picture of Ava and the two went and took about 40 random pictures of our friends backyard.  They were so funny to flip through this morning.  Not a lot of the actual party but I'm glad we got at least one good shot.

Remembering to enjoy the moment. 
Thanks Emily.
