Julie's blessing

My parents were so nice to let us bless Julie at their house while we were visiting Arizona for the weekend. We were just in time for the orange blossoms and it smelled like heaven!

My mom always makes things extra special. Thank you mom...the dinner
 (and the cute decorations) were amazing!

that cake...was so so delicious. I dream of it now

I laughed so hard while looking at this sequence of photos with Julie and her cousin Emma

Dave, Cindy and Stella. Their poor boys were sick :(

These three were scrunched a lot by me

We love her! It was such a fun day

Julie's camera obscura nursery

I keep planning on doing this as the seasons change so I can watch how my little girl is changing with them.

Someday we'll sit together and watch the people walking and cars driving around on her walls.

 Hopefully she'll enjoy it as much as I do.

Other camera obscura projects here and here.

To these:

Is that even the same baby? I can't believe it. Every day I say that this is my favorite day with Julie.

But I'm always proven wrong the next day.
