Crazy Kids

Since Rosie and Miguel moved into our neighborhood, this is what a typical weekend with the kids has been like. We basically just spend the days killing time and wasting the kids energy at the pool, mall, etc. They were especially hyper on this particular day.


They think they are models

I think he was breakdancing in this one


Her favorite dance move

We went on the carousel in the mall and sat in the spinny seat. At first it was fun and we were going fast then Amanda took over spinning and she wouldn't stop! It was so fast I thought I was going to puke. The kids thought it was hilarious and talked about it the rest of the day.

Grease Sing-A-Long

Stacie and I went to the Grease Sing-A-Long at the Tampa Theatre with my Meetup Group. It was so much fun because the movie played on the screen along with the words of all the songs so the entire audience sang along to every song. They also encouraged audience members to dress up as a Grease character and they had a costume parade on stage. It was fun!

Stacie and I after the movie, I look a little rough.

I love old movie theatres, especially the Tampa Theatre

Events

I have not added photos in forever so what better time than on a Sunday night at 2:30am after I have spent the evening editing photos. These are just a few from the last few events I went to. I had several photos printed in the latest issue of BizBash and the editor even added my name to the front credits as a photographer and I am the only one listed there. She is trying very hard to get one of my photos on the cover of the magazine so I am super excited. My photos will also be featured in Florida Trends Magazine but I am not sure when that comes out but I am sure I will post it when/if it happens.

This is at the Art of Helping Children Art Gala benefiting the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Tampa Bay. It was pretty and nice and Rosie even went with me so we had lots of fun.

This was from the ISES convention in St. Pete, it was a 1920's flapper theme, hence the feathers.

Rays Game

We went to the Rays game with the kids and had a blast! Baseball is a little boring but being in the big dome and eating junk food and watching all the people on the big screen was loads of fun! Plus, the Rays won!

Thank God it was $1 hotdog night because Amanda ate 4 and Nick ate 3, holy cow!


He always does this



Family photo minus part of Walter's face.........oops

Nick took about three or four photos of himself like this.

After all the hotdogs, they wanted cotton candy!

Yay, we won!

The Love of My Life

I miss my Zacha so much but I got to babysit him all day last week. We had fun playing together and he talks sooo much and even says my name, finally! I took some pictures of my bubba because he's getting so big, I miss him!

He looks like Darrell in this one


Our silly faces

4th of July

This year the 4th of July started with a parade. I didn't expect much but there were actually tons of people there and it was quite a large parade. We had fun throwing beads and pens at people. At the end of the parade they announced the new Lutz Guv'na which was not my mom. Oh well at least it's over and they raised a total of $22,000, AWESOME!

The non-future Guv'na!

Todd was just happy to get candy!


That evening was spent at our friends Tracey and James' house where we played games and watched fireworks. It was a perfect day even if we didn't go to the beach.

I don't really like this but it's the only one of us

All the girls

Father's Day

Father's Day was celebrated a little late this year because Dad was fishing in Pensacola on Father's Day. But, eventually we all got together and spent the evening at Dad and Donna's house for dinner, present opening, and a few goofy photos.

Look, Josh is actually capable of really smiling.

Cute!

Opening gifts

Shoo shoo was the official card holder.

Flea is beautiful!

The goofiest family photo ever. Apparently Josh forgot to brush his hair and we are all smiling funny.

Josh loves Flea!
