Sweet, sweet, summertime and a birthday.....

Now that school is officially over, summertime has started in our house.... i am done my classes and we are all settling into a routine of lazy, casual summer days! Gotta love it as long as it lasts.... hopefully the weather will cooperate with everyone and make it a great summer! (and yes I am already missing my classes and fabulous group of ladies and I know that you are all missing me but just think about all the Great photos we will have in September!!!!)

Love these pics of the kids.... you gotta love summer days!! I am sure some of have noticed that I have 2 blogs going right now.... one for my everyday stuff and then my photography one
http://lynnthunephotography.blogspot.com which is basically for me to share my work with clients.... i didn't think everyone would be inteested in y everyday person life... . however feel free to pop over there now and then and if you are ever interested in booking a photoshoot let me know!

Yesterday we had a little party for Kade! Yep he turned three! Like what? when did that happen but he did and right before our eyes!

Farm chicks..... 2011

so I totally had to share some favorites from farm chicks....there have been so many great shots on different peoples blogs that I thought I better share some of my own! Not that they are anything fabulous..... just great memories, and I am so okay with that!

so to start off... Lori and I left bright and early.... well early for some.....(no names mentioned!) on Friday morning.... and got to spokane around 5;30. Had such a great trip just chatting and eating.... and eating.... and eating....oh and a little chatting! Ok a lot of chatting but let me tell you the trip flew by! lol

We got to the hotel which was like arriving at the lifestyles of the rich and famous.... loved it a lot! and no I don't get out much but Lori is changing my old ways... which I so love by the way!

We checked in the hotel and phoned our good friends.... well I think they are good friends....ok so I didn't really know any of them except for Paula from 7 gypsies and yes she is my good friend! We ended up having supper with them at a very nice placed called 'Twigs'....how cool is that name? Loved it a lot and loved the food and everything that went along with it!

ok so left to right... Nancy, Paula, me, Lori, Sandi, and Layle.....

tjhese are some of the photos that I took on our little 'road trip' to farm chicks which I am so going to go to again! Totally worth it!

This was at the park that was right by our hotel.... like who knew!

so many cool booths!

at the 'cool' park! Might even frame this one!!!!!

Until next time.....

Happy Saturday!!!!

okay well not sure about happy Saturday because it rained most of the day but at least it is sunny now.....lol
I know someone in my household that is happy.... Cole got himself a car today and I am sure he is doing the happy dance! I know I am! now i don't need to worry about making sure I am home to give him a vehicle for work.... Life has been crazy busy as usual.....in a good way though I would way rather be busy than not.....

Here is layout #7.... THe photo was taken at the Spokane falls.... When Lori and I were there for Farm chicks (which was amazing by the way!) we went down to a park not too far from our hotel...

There was an amusement park there as well as some beautiful falls.... hard to believe that was right in the middle of downtown spokane.... so pretty!

Cole finished up his grade 12 this week, Shalaina will be done i think the end of next week....SHarla will be turning 20 in less than a month... Ella will be a year old in less than two..... where did the year go? So hard to believe... wonder what the next year will bring? I feel anxious and worried all at the same time.... sometimes I would like to know the future and then realize that i really don't.....

Enjoy the rest of the weekend,

Lynn

Way too much fun....

I had to post these tonight before I go to bed... I LOVE them.....

I had so much fun with these girls today.....I have known Lori for a long time, long enough to call her my friend..... I had such a great day with her and her girls! Lori you and your girls are beautiful, i felt honoured to capture these special moments for you!

Enjoy your little sneak peek.....






until tomorrow....



Lynn

So tomorrow we (as in Lori and I! just in case nobody knew!) go on a road trip.... to 'Farm Chicks' I am so excited I can hardly stand it! Don't worry, I am hoping to get back in time to teach on Tuesday... well unless some unforseen shopping trip calls Lori and I! lol


Here is layout #6 for next week... Sweet little Miss Kianna turned one and we had a bash.... and a bash it was! Poor little pumpkin wasn't feeling good but she did her best and made it a great party!

SHe is such a happy little thing that when she is sick you are like 'really?' so not like her at all!

By the time the cupcakes came out as long as she didn't have ten cameras in her face she was good! We had to be a bit sneaky about the pictures! Once she got in to those cupcakes though there was no turning back, she loved them!

Hope you all have a fabby weekend, i am sure going too....

i'm out....
