July 2012 Summer Trip
We returned from a week trip that took us to Memphis TN, Milan TN, Nashville TN, and back to Helena AR. Was my only vacation time this summer due to working for Student Services. (which was unexpected but fun). The trip was set up to spend a night in Memphis so we could take the girls to Beale Street. When then stayed the night at the Spe [...]
Little Beachy
Summer is here so we decided that a short trip down to Galveston was in order. Blake and his kiddo wanted to ride with us; the more the merrier. Girls love to hit the beach for a few hours, body surf, and grade a good lunch on the seawall. Not a very pretty beach but enough for us for a quick trip.

Water Beauty
It is almost sad that I am a photographer and we have very few portraits around the house. Trena is always on my case to update the picture throughout the house. We have frames everywhere but most pictures are of the girls from 2009. Two years have come and gone. Two very important years. The large portraits on the staircase are when Bec [...]
