{too much fun}

That is what happened... we had too much fun!  It was such a fabulous idea, and I will have to do it again sometime, but there is something to be said for being on vacation and just having too much fun to stop and blog!  I highly recommend to any of you who have considered to visit the northwest in the summer time to definitely go!  We had such a wonderful time exploring the different spots and I have to say that we discovered we have quite the adventurous crew!  I cannot wait to see what these kiddos want to do in the coming years.  I am amazed at how brave and up for just about anything they all are!  It is going to make for super fun times!

So I have a bit to share... ok so maybe a lot, but I didn't think anyone would mind too much.  I was going to put together a slideshow, but really wanted to talk about them all as well, so I just decided to make a fabulous, monstrous, beverage deserving (your choice) post!  So get comfy... they are out of order and I just do not have time to fix that!  LOL

super cheese, but oh he is so cute here!

I love these together!  This was in the middle of Granville Island in Vancouver - SUCH a cool spot!  Tons of amazing artists!

when was the last time you stopped to make a wish?

reflection lake was still frozen at Mt Ranier, but isn't this just breathtaking?  It was gorgeous!

this just makes me smile - these 4 have my heart all wrapped up so nicely - (do you notice some flip flops in there?  LOL)

hello birdies!

i stood on a cliff for this shot - i think it was worth it

watch out!  if you fall asleep i do grab my camera!  {sigh} he is getting so big...

a little night action for ya

the capilano suspension bridge - WOW!  pretty incredible and pretty scary when your children seem unphased by a 400 foot drop!

at Paradise at Mt Ranier - 4 of the 6 of us - if anyone finds a polo flip flop I believe we left one - yes more flip flops LOL

going up to grouse mountain in the gondola - he was impressed!

YUM

hmmm anyone notice a difference between the old logo and the eh-hem revised one?  

the spot that started it all!  I was quite happy... a little doppio action!

in the experience music project - super cool!

we LOVED the markets!

Jeremy shot this at the peak of Whistler - the inukshuk!  I love this shot!

that is my 3 year old... way up there... way way up there

'sup 

it was so pretty in Whistler!  one of my very favorite parts of the trip!

we had many stops to take a shot and i couldn't resist this!

LOOK!  ALL OF US!  Thank you nice couple!  :0)

it's me again!  this is super funny...  we are up walking around the trees in this shot.  the baby on my back - he's checking out what is on the other side of the bridge - i have one of his shoes in my hand - and obviously am preparing to take a shot of some other little people!  the best part... Jeremy captured it!

these 2 are up in a chair lift!  i was a nervous wreck down below that he would want to jump out!!!

then the older 2 got their turn!

i love love love this... they are so tight!

at the entry to Canada - it was so so pretty

he is too too sweet!

hee hee hee

19 months old... RUNNING across the suspension bridge!  grown people are CLINGING to the sides for dear life, but oh no, not this guy, he has no fear!

Jeremy snuck down to the beach for this cool shot of the Vancouver skyline

wow - i love this

who is that sexy guy on the top of that mountain?  i must find out!  oh wait, he comes home with me!  :0)

i love it when i catch them and they don't know it

ok yeah i will take one of those right now thank you!

are these dogs all his?  where is he going with all those dogs?  

LOL

the evolution of a smile

pure joy in the snow

do you see the peace sign?  i FREAKED out!  

wowsers.... she is getting so big and is stunning...

So that is all for now.  There are SO SO MANY that I haven't even touched yet, but I think it is safe to say that was enough!  (and I am getting sleepy!)  ;0)  I am back in full swing and have lots to share over this next week.  I will have all the fall schedule coming out here soon and more big announcements. 

Be back soon!

{wanna come along?}

WOW!  We are having SUCH a fabulous time!  I hate to say it, but I don't know if we will be coming back - with highs in the low 70s, snow to play in, and absolutely beautiful scenery, we are loving it!  Ok - did you catch that - it is JULY - the end of JULY - and there is snow up here.  How fun is that?!?!?!?  We Texans don't exactly GET that sort of thing!!!  

So I turned to Jeremy and had this super fab idea... let's blog on our trip!  Fun, huh?  Well we got all excited and went through on our FIRST night and picked out fun images from the scenic side of the day to edit and share and then, well, blogger was having some difficulty - then we pack up and leave Seattle and visit Mt. Ranier - HOLY SMOKES!  THE most amazing thing I think I have ever seen.  We leave for Vancouver that night and get to our hotel - get all excited thinking I will get to blog some of the fabulous stuff we have taken and then - well - let's just say if you stay at the Westin in downtown Seattle and there is an adapter in your room for the power cord for a mac... it might be mine!  So... here we are... all excited to share - and it just isn't happenin!  Well... a nice walk to the apple store in Vancouver in this glorious weather did just the trick and got us up and running again!

So, not exactly the way I had planned, BUT it will work, right?  

There are an incredible amount of images from this trip that are just breathtaking.  I just finished uploading the first 4 days and I already am planning canvases and the like, so I cannot begin to imagine what the next 4 days will bring!  I am super tired - so no editing anything new tonight, but these are some fun little things from the first day...

 A super sleepy 3 year old with just the sweetest little fingers

the Seattle Farmers Market - um WOW!  Can we just bring the market home with us to Kingwood?  It is FABULOUS!  

yummy

it was a feast for every one of your senses!

the view from our room - love the sky

we thought this was so super cool!  More Moore's!  LOL  And some of our favorite things... movies and coffee (yummmmmmm  - and something that is NOT lacking in Seattle, LOL - this is definitely a well caffeinated town!) 

So no people, well, some fingers - LOL - but a bit of a sneak of sorts!  I wish I had the energy to plow through some more, but with all of the walking we have been doing - and the fact that everyone is asleep right now - the bed is awfully inviting!  

Check back in soon for some Moore adventures!  :0)  ok i know - laying on the extreme cheese with that one, but I couldn't resist!  LOL  the altitude must be getting to me....  

sleep well...

{Leaving on a jet plane...}

Well, hubby and I just returned from an AMAZING little jaunt to Austin land for our 10 year wedding anniversary and now we are pickin up the kiddos and heading out for some family celebratin time in Canada!  I love summer vacations!  SOOOOO  I will not be around to talk to all of you fabulous people for a while.  I will have limited access to voicemail and email until the 23rd.  So be patient with me for a little bit!  :0)

I have a bunch to share from this summer.  It has been a really rockin summer so far and we aren't even done with July yet!  Lots of babies, weddings, seniors from the class of '09 and don't get me started on my recent new friends in Lubbock!  Before we left for Austin I literally was in front of my computer NONSTOP for 4 days!  It was like November!  crazy...

But for now, I just have time to post a couple - then I MUST go finish getting us all ready.  It is a JOB folks to get 6 people ready to go and of course, I must be considering all of the gorgeous photo ops we will be surrounded by and what the 4 little ones ought to be wearing!  There are not enough hours left in my day!!!

  Here are a few from a recent senior session...  she is GORGEOUS!

don't get me started on this...  i love it

this shot was inspired by my brother - i will be sending you to his website very soon!  he is super talented!

Textures and Vintage finishes are so so fab!

That is all for now...  I will be back with some super fun mountain fabulousness!  

Have a great week!
