Soaking Up the Last Days of Summer!

Michael recently had a company picnic at the park. The girls had a blast running around and playing. I used the opportunity to snap a few photos of them looking so cute and happy. They had so much fun picking the wildflowers and smelling them. They are such girls and I love it!

A Surprise Blessing. . .

There will soon be a new little addition to the Brown family!

Alexandria at 15 Months

Unlike little miss superstar Lilyana, things did not go as hoped with miss Alexandria. She was not having the whole photo thing. Alex refused to sit be separated from me and cried when I tried to sit her in the chair, so that is why there are only three of her and one crying photo. She looks super cute, even though we could not get a smile from her. She can pull of a very adorable serious face. Gotta love her!

My Princesses

Getting a picture with both of the girls together, wasn't easy! Alex was having none of this photo nonsense, so I was sooo inceredibly lucky to even get a few decent ones! I would've been excited to get just one, but three! WOW! It truly was amazing!

Lilyana's 3 year Photo Shoot

I know this post has been long time coming. Sorry I have been such a slacker lately. My goal is to get better at posting and updating. These are Lilyana's 3 year pictures. I think they turned out so adorable. She was so good and listened to everything the photographer told her to do. Why can't she be that great for me when I try and take pictures of her?

Six Flags Elitch Gardens

In July we went to Six Flags Elitch Gardens for Michael's company picnic. We took Lilyana with us while Alexandria spent the day with her favorite auntie cousin and uncle cousin Mandy and Clayton.

It was really hot, so we planned on mainly doing the awesome water park they have there, but we wanted to let Lily do a few of the kiddie rides first. I have yet to finish the roll of film on the waterproof camera and get them developed, so I am sorry that I don't have those fun pictures to share just yet. Anywhoo, Lily's favorite ride was the carousel, which she begged me to ride over and over again, and she also really enjoyed the "teacup" ride (which are like rolls of film.) That she had to ride alone because I was afraid of tossing my cookies.

We really enjoed the water park, eventhough, that by the time we made our way over there, the weather had turned cloudy and windy. It even started to rain at one point. Lily only lasted for a little while, but the rest of us enjoyed the slides and shivering in the cold as we waited to go down again!

First ride, the flying swings!

Wheee, such a brave girl!
