trip to boise

some pictures of our trip up to boise last week.





a couple cute ones from the car ride up.



madeleine's first encounter with a balloon.



we had a bit of a photo shoot out in grammy's backyard. mostly i meant to capture her tentative reaction to the grass, but she was being so cute. i may have gone overboard. i've selected just a few of the best.













hanging out with randy's aunt, rhonda. rhonda fed madeleine ice cream and madeleine will love rhonda forever.



randy and his brother, kyle.



randy's preferred method of practice - on a steinway.



madeleine's first experience with a steinway.







randy's uncle, tim, jeanie, rhonda, me, madeleine, bob



randy catching a nap after an early morning for skiing that didn't end up happening due to whitecaps.

Debby, you look so happy and so beautiful. Do you call her Maddy? If not, what is her nickname? She is gorgeous and growing incredibly fast. Maybe even grew a centimeter in between shots in the backyard. It is so hard to take just 3 shots of anything. It just seems like they are all so different from each other, and with the rate of growth those first two years, I'm grateful for digital cameras that let me take more pictures in a day than I would normally with regular film in a month. Again, you look great!

we don't call her maddy - i'm not a big fan. i know she'll probably get called that by friends some day, but we just call her madeleine.
