Summer Round-Up, Antelope Island

Let me apologize in advance for the number of pictures in this post.  How do you choose between so many fun ones?  Went to Antelope Island with our family from Maine.

This little boy gets a nasty mosquito bite on his ear.  Before we figured it out, his hugely swollen ear, which swelling extended to his head, freaked us out.

Looking for burrowing owls.

Cousin time.

 (sorry, this is a rewind from the moutains, I just missed it and I think it is super cute)

 These little cousins adore eachother.  It is so cute to watch them in action.

 Excited!  I love his little run!

 Learning to lasso.

 The original Basque boy.

What a great day.

Mr. E. Goes to the Beach and Other Summer Round Up Pics (#2)

I didn't mean to take so many of just the baby...but aren't these photos of him enjoying the beach so fun?  I love watching babies discover something for the first time.

Here are some at home from the end of the summer, from the kids making a cardboard bed to baby climbing on the piano when I wasn't looking to kids playing with their animals (from craft jars), to my sister visiting (my kids LOVE my sisters...she was shocked when the baby, who never goes to anyone, plunked himself down in her lap for a photo!  He was still a little wary of her, though).
