Katieaceae: August 2008

These pictures are out of order, but that is ok because memories do not relay in perfect replay but in jumbles of pictures and commentaries. So that is how i display.

First set are taken in Idaho Falls. I went up there to Amber's a couple weeks before school started in August. The temperature was at a comfortable tolerance of heat, a storm blew past midway leaving cool winds. Your nose is continually sensing new but known smells from the nearby farms and dairies. But its the simple things that I love about Idaho.

I had a chance to attend one of Emma's soccer practices. So the next few pictures were taken while watching the kids kick the ball on the green grass.

Where I go Amber goes, where Amber goes, Gracey goes

She has one of the cutest smiles for a chunk

Oh and that tongue, it will kill the very heart of the meanest person alive.

She loves to stick anything available into her mouth, the latest flame: her toes!

But she is a mommas girl, she loves her mom dearly

Ok, next set of pictures belong to Monterey memory. There is nothing wrong with enjoying some sunshine. Though i love humboldt county's for and rain, the plants are not the only ones who need and wish the sunbeams there way.

Steinbeck: very popular there, we are buds.

Ok, here is the random placement i was talking about earlier. The above picture did not take place in Monterey, for one: Emmas hair was not that short during that trip. We are taking Emma to her 1st grade orientation at her school. She is wearing a new school outfit and her hair is the shortest it has ever been, minus when she was a baby.

Back to Emma's soccer practice, Amber and I decided to turn attention from Emma to ourselves. It took a few tries before we got al three of us in the picture... we are pretty much pro by now.
