Faves of 2010 - Nature Photos

Although this may look like a snow covered field, it is actually the Mississippi River completely frozen over. I took this shot while standing at the end of Parley Street in Nauvoo, IL. back in February of this year.

This was on a hike to Blanche Lake.


Although this is blurry, I adored the sheep on the hill, right next to the North Sea. I took this on the train from London to Edinburgh.


Blossoms with an ancient church in the background -Cornwall, England



The "Spring Green" in Cornwall.



Looking at many of the lakes that can be seen from the top of Bald Mountain.



Washington Lake.



Wild flowers in a meadow next to Washington Lake.


I liked the reflections on Washington Lake in this pic.


Twin Falls, ID



If I had paid attention in 7th grade science class I could probably identify what kind of cloud this was in Idaho.


Our canoe - Washington Lake


Andrew took this picture of the meadow where he, Dave and Jud camped.




Point Loma, CA. I heart the ocean.



On a bike ride along the Weber River.


Rainbow seen from my front porch.

Faves of 2010 - Funny photos

Most of these photos are probably only funny to me. But . . . they make me laugh.


Something fishy going on here. Actually, for me, the funniest part of this pic is that headband Andrew wore for most of our trip to Chicago (think Pauly Bleeker in the movie Juneau)



Good thing someone threw me the life ring. (Why does a hotel not put water in their pool?)



Is Logan Thing 1 or Thing 2?

Hurry, the Hogwarts Express is going to leave us and we'll have to take that ridiculous flying car again.


Lily brought her microphone so she could give a talk to the dead people in the cemetery on Memorial Day.


Good thing James and Jack have their goggles on, there ended up being 3 inches of water in that little pool.

The Terror Ride wasn't the scariest thing at Lagoon. The fact that Roo and Julie had to go buy matching hoodies at the Centerville Target store because it was so freezing was much scarier.


The kids were watching "Monsters vs. Aliens"


Jack just does funny things when I pull out the camera.


This is the face Logan made everytime a firework went off.

After taking the kids to Toy Story 3 this is what Jack's feet looked like. At least he was quiet during the entire movie. M&m's are the best.


The guys came up with a clever way to stay afloat in the pool while they played basketball. They turned life jackets into "diapers".



Roo was doing that thing where you relax your face and shake your head back and forth. Weird.

Messy Logan.

Again.


I told James to smile for a picture and he said "wait" and stuck the bucket on his head.

They said they were trying not to touch the cactus.

We ate that entire eclaire. There were only the three of us. Goo.

Splash Mountain


Once again, I pull out the camera and Jack makes a face.

Faves of 2010 - Action Photos

Most of the "action shots" are of Roo.

This is him on the tote goat.



Cody threw Jack in the air on Easter.


Andrew at Wall Lake.


James on his third birthday.



Andrew at Walcott Lake.
