I'm not the best at candid moment shots, I'm use to telling the kids to stop what they are doing and say cheese! I'm trying harder to capture the
moment but find myself getting easily distracted, sometimes it
doesn't take much. So i think of good shots, just
don't point the
camera in that direction...something to work on! I took about 500 pictures on this trip but 490 are of the kids :) and then I took some in RAW but i cant get those off the camera....If any knows please HELP!
These were a few of the pictures from just hanging around the house. Between trips...our "downtime"

Andrew thought he was too cool

The boy loves horses, he could have rode this in circles all day. I remember the same feeling when I was a kid.
Andrew fell while playing soccer so we asked for his pathetic look....this is what we got. It comes all too natural for out little actor

Every now and then I see a picture that not even words can describe, yes this is one of them!
So here how you play this game. There are two large pieces of wood with faces painted on them. Then where their mouths should be is a not so big hole. The object of the game was to throw a ten pound bean bag with one hand while holding a beer or some form of alcoholic
beverage in the other. Needless to say this game got very competitive

Andrew took the side are tongue in cheek stance...followed by getting as close as you can

Ralph took the throw it really high and hope it hits something
that's not moving approach.

Bonnie
preferred the walk up like it's a bowling ball stance.
