Skylar was originally supposed to be a fairy, but she refused to wear the requisite tutu (I don’t blame her) so we went with our backup option: Super-Skylar!

Lexington Video
Hanging out at Rose Farm Hill Ln. Or is it Rose Hill Farm Ln? Or was it Rosehill Farm? This is the conversation I have everything time I try to set the GPS, which by the way has no idea of any of those addresses :)-

Parker Baptism – Lexington
It was such a good time to spend a weekend with Nana and Poppa D! Skylar also got to play with her cousins for a little bit on Sunday before we had to jump on the road to coordinate with nap schedules. Taco also had a great time and probably started getting used to being an outdoor doggie. No herding cows on this trip though 🙂

Daddy’s new camera
My camera was 7 years old and in digital years that’s like a millennium. I finally bit the bullet and got a new SLR that also shoots video.
The image quality for stills is slightly better but the video it shoots is unbelievable. YouTube can’t do it justice – but it’s almost broadcast / Hollywood quality.
It takes some practice and knowledge to get good results, but it’s crazy to think that for not that much money you can create your own Indie movies and no one will know you didn’t spend a million dollars to make it 🙂

Giraffe head
Skylar – you have a Giraffe on your head. Grrrrr….
She actually wasn’t growling at me, I think that’s the face she makes when she’s doing her fake smile face, but it definitely looks menacing. That’s one crazy looking Giraffe!

Picture time at RTC
10 minute photo shoot on the way to another event. Snapped it on the front lawn of the RTC.

Balance bike
Nanna and Poppa D got Skylar a balance bike for her second birthday. Here we are trying it out for the first time in the house:

Skylar Bday Culpeper
We had ambitious plans to have Skylars birthday party at Dad’s, then go drop by the soap box derby to see G and Mason race, and then finish up the day by attending a family reunion in Lignum. Skylar didn’t nap on the way down, and then Parker napped for 3.5 hours at Dad’s so we didn’t get too far.

Pool time!
There are so many ways to enter the swimming pool, but my favorite is the push and fall:
