Playing at the beach

I tried to make a rough schedule for the summer days, and Thursday was our beach day. Connie was awesome and came with to help with the kids, since most of the time Spencer was working. We had a blast hanging out at Poipu, by a little island area. It's perfect for little kids.

Fun pictures of the kids

I have a bunch of different photos of the kids throughout June.

She adores her belly button and needs to be touching it while drinking. So funny!

Catch up/Shooting 101

I am so behind on the blog, and it's so funny, because I am completely obsessed  in love with photography, and I feel I have so many pretty pictures to share. Maybe it's because I have so many, that I get overwhelmed. I will be doing some very condensed recaps of the last few months.

I know I shared a post once about clickinmoms.com earlier. I adore the website for teaching me so many new things about photography. I signed up for their 4 week course, called Shooting 101, which started at the end of May. It teaches you how to really use your camera, which I thought I knew, but I learned much more and it has helped me be so much more consistent with my exposure. These are a few of my favorite images from the class. I know much more about editing and how to make the images better, but I honestly don't have time to go back and fix these. They will be a great example of my progress as I go along, right?

Aidan's May Day 2012

One fun thing that Grandpa also got to do was to watch was Aidan's May Day performance. It was such a fun thing for him to get to see, but also for Aidan to have his great-grandfather there. It is so special to me that my children have been able to spend this time with him and have these beautiful memories to keep forever.
