It’s been a crazy summer so far in the Owens household…my youngest had his last day of Kindergarten on the 2nd, then my older two were done with school on the 3rd…which also happened to be miss Claire’s 8th birthday. So the next day is the first official day of summer in our home…and my computer dies. I had these big dreams of starting some awesome posts and taking great photos to post for my 365 project, but instead I spent over a week dealing with coming to terms with the fact that my old computer was dead (all data was A-OK!!) and that I needed a new one…and last night I finally got the new computer. All is right in my world again and so I can post…however, I have realized over the last week that just because the kids are out of school, that does not mean I have any time to get things done! So, as a warning, summer postings may be a little on the light side 🙂

Me thinks the girl likes to pose…cracks me up that Max is just not having it – nothing new there! 🙂

I’m thinking that after seeing yet another photo of the three of my kids walking together, that I need to do some sort of series or album…it’s one of my favorite images to shoot of them and I seem to do it on all our shoots…something to add to my to-do list!!
And now we’re on to Miss Claire’s party with family…I loved this shot, even with the grainy look to it because her expression is just so sweet. She just loves us singing to her, she was genuinely so very happy.

And a quick couple shots of Max in his sideways hat…I had no idea he was so very gangsta. The kids were enjoying their Sonic slushies in the backyard…I love that kid. Blue slushie lips and all!

Last week was full of swimming and other summer activities…I’ll be trying to do a better job with my 365, but I know I won’t be perfect! On Friday the kids and I went to Temple Square with their great grandmother to see the sights…we looked around, had a great lunch, Claire got to see many a bride, and then we got rained out. Here’s a quick shot in the Tabernacle.

And now I’m done…off to watch last night’s recorded Bachelorette and get some reading done…look for a swim meet post tomorrow, since I know you’re all looking forward to one! 🙂 Have a good evening everyone, I’m so glad to be back in the world with a computer! 🙂
