What would you call this? A water gun? Au contraire…Really? Just because you call it a “squirter” doesn’t mean anyone in the entire universe is going to see it as anything other than a gun. Seriously, people.

Nicholas’ preschool graduation. He always poses like that, with at least one hand on his hip.I’m going to pull this picture out when he graduates high school. He’s already got the look. Now he just needs the years.

Go Julianna! Wow! And congrats to your big preschool grad! Love the hand on the hips look!
Christian took me in one for my birthday once. It’s magical. It doesn’t feel like you’re rising, it’s more like you’re staying still while the earth moves away. You should go sometime.

Years ago, I helped out with a hot air balloon festival by following one of the balloons around in a truck as it flew over the area. It ended up landing in the middle of a suburban street and the kids in the surrounding houses were SO excited! Fun memory. 🙂
Love all the pictures. Ralph and I are going on a hot air balloon ride in July out of Springfield, Mo, to celebrate our 45th anniversary . Cannot wait !!!

your pictures are wonderful!
Great pictures! Especially the hand on the hip one. And I love hot air balloons. Never had the courage to get in one though.

Could there be a sweeter preschool graduation photo?! I am guessing not. My word. And that green bow is such a smurfy touch! 🙂
Only better if it was blue, n’est-ce pas? 🙂
Nicholas is quite the charmer!
