a girl and her shoes...

now that she is a walker, syd steps it up with a new pair of shoes...and hard soled at that.

just diggin' those hard rubber soles

gettin' a feel for tha canvas

testin' them on some familiar terrain

admirin' them from above

now it is time to pose

not to be outdone...NEO showin' off his new kicks (not as exciting for him)

a boy and his sand...

you can take the beach away from the boy, but you can't take away his spirit...

partaking in his favorite pastime

sand and excavators, who could ask for more?

big edward...the constant recipient of nathan’s wrath

the rewards of a long day in the sun

don't worry...big edward was not injured

in with the new...

to blend in with the locals, there had to be some changes...(mama's new camera not featured)

a double stroller

nathan testing it out with a reluctant passenger

a new "big boy seat" (and a slightly used one for the kyd)

a new best friend for syd (if only all of us could experience the many joys laa laa brings)

the kyd gets her own room (and bigger than ma & pa's old one)

same old fun...just a new outdoor location

the big move out west...

after a long car ride for the old man and a cush plane ride for mom and the kiddies, we finally made it out to the big CO. here are some shots of the kids enjoying their new digs...

scopin' out the new view (so much green)

the ever so mobile syd

NEO doin' his best ringo impersonation

the kyd in pig tails

wearin' a new lid with some new friends

just hangin' out with one of her fishy friends
