I bet you thought I wasn't going to blog today...
We didn't have any big plans for Memorial Day weekend but we did drive up to Seven Feathers to spend Friday night with Josh's family.
We pretty much got there in time for dinner.
And dessert.
And then we went back to the room so everyone could change into their swimsuits. (Not me though - me and the sausages don't do swimsuits.)
I didn't shoot at the pool for very long because the light was horrible. (I figured everyone would want to go swimming in the morning so I'd have an opportunity to shoot when the light was better - turns out no one wanted to swim the next day so this is the only decent swimming shot I have.)
Josh and his brother Jamey wanted to go gambling that evening.
I volunteered to stay with the kids though (since my fear of losing money far outweighs my excitement of potentially winning money.) Josh said he lost $40 in the first 30 minutes and gave up. (I think Jamey went home with a few extra bucks in his pocket though.)
The next morning, we had breakfast and then Josh and Coley hung out at the arcade while the girls and I goofed off in the room...
And then we set out for home.
Hope yours was good.
Wow, your pictures are awesome. What kind of camera and lens are you using the clarity is great. Looks like you and your family had a blast!

On our way back from Disneyland this spring we took a break in the parking lot of the Seven Feathers, that's my memory! Silly isn't it!

I spent way to much money on a suit for our big US trip last fall. But at least I feel comfortable in it, not enough for pictures, but enough to attempt to swim.
