a weekend away

the dunes

the toys
(which I did ride!)

the boys 

Aidan: "I want to stay at the dunes forevah."

Davyn as we drove off to a store on Saturday, lip quivering, eyes tearing: "I wa dune.  I wa toyhaula."  Try as we did, we couldn't convince him we were simply venturing out for moments in search of hamburger buns.

 
40 feet of "roughing it"

 

a peace of Quiet on the drive home

That first picture looks like a world away! I'm glad you had fun (and rode the toys), and I love the pictures of your sleepy boys.

Can't wait to hear all about this! Fantastic photos thus far!

[Mandy]

Great photos! I hope you guys had fun. Your boys look so cute asleep. It's one of my favorite things when Ryley falls asleep in the car. For one thing, it makes the drive easier. The other, I love seeing her little sleeping face through the window when I go to retrieve her. Love it!

[Emily]

I love the pic of Aidan with his cowboy hat and shorts! That is a keeper. Way to go you "boy mom" you!

Our Quads are sitting in the garage. We ride them to get the mail & go to piano lessons!hahaha
We have driven by the dunes, but never 'gone'.
I would need to stay in a hotel.heehee
Quite the big rig there! -ciao

Is that my camera in use? It takes good pictures but it is mine. Besides, you are pretty spoiled: sleeping children, big, expensive toys, and a house on wheels with a gourmet kitchen. Cyn

Okay this makes me very homesick. We actually looked at quads in the store the other day just for fun. My husband dreams of him and the boys someday owning some. Great photos!

[Amy]

Come on Cyn, don't you want to spoil me further with your nice little camera?! Jim does honestly do a dang good job of spoiling a very picky girl.

"You want me to camp out in sand??? Buy me a house on wheels!"

And he did.

[Annalisa]

Very impressed. Now you want to come run with me this weekend? Haha.
I'm still waiting to hear your one word. Don't think we've forgotten.

[Amy]

Oh how I would love to come run with you. The thought of Kel running makes me think I can too, so it's seriously been swimming in my little head. I need a running buddy, but think the Utah commute would be a bit much.

And my one word has been swimming in my head a lot...just been too busy to sort it into words.

[kristi]

[amy m]

[rebecca]

What a great trip away! Love the pictures, so cute to see tuckered out boys sleeping away the journey home.

[Mandi]

The dunes do look like some other planet. How fun! Gotta love kids when they're sleeping!

[Shanon]

Amy!!! I am so proud of you for taking your camera and for using it!!! Those are all great photos. I love your boys comments and they look adorable!!

[Amy]

I didn't really have a choice when my *official photographer* - YOU - didn't show up! You seriously need to start a blog just for showcasing all of your amazing photo skills!

[Cozzette]
