A successful start to summer jobs and educational activities.

 And I realize now that I need to get him paper that has wider lines.

Kyler's first ride in a swing!

After a day of weeding, tumble weed gathering and burning.

So nice to have that mess cleaned up!

End of Year Gift for Mrs. Higgins

I did something like this for Kirra's second grade teacher and thought it would work really well for Kade's teacher too!  I had Mrs. Higgins and Officer Higgins fill out a questionnaire about things they like.  I sent an email with pictures of the one I had done before to the parents of the kids in Kade's class and they were excited.  Then I set up a Google Doc with all kinds of options for the parents to choose from. I got smart this time and asked for the parents to send in the gift cards themselves - instead of cash and me getting the gift cards.  

It turned out great!

 I hadn't picked up the Sportman's Warehouse gift card when I photographed the book.

Last Day of School 2014

It's always hard to believe it when another school year comes to an end.  Here in Albuquerque it comes to an end too early - I'd love to go one more week in May and start a week later in August.

The last morning I had Kirra and Kade go outside and take some pictures. 

They were in rare form.

 

She's so proud of her photo bombs.
