So Very Thankful

is that Courdory that Simon is holding? One of my favorite stories from childhood! What great photos!

What a wonderful post - life doesn't get any better than that.
Good for the soul.

PS - does Simon have his own computer now, and if so, what did you buy him.

Love the way you take photos!
Looks like you had a wonderful time out! (;
Lovely greetings from over the ocean

That's what it's all about!

What a beautiful pictures of happy family,cutest kids,stunning ocean and rocks.Look so peaceful.
Ali, your kids are adorable.
What is Simon like to play on his computer?

Looks like a wonderful weekend. But, how cold was it? I see all of those jackets and gloves. Here in TX it was blazing hot.

Love all the different pics, Ali. It looks like you had a whale of a time! Love, LOVE the pic of the three of you on laptops **giggle**. Don't you love the modern world :-).

I can't believe how grown-up Simon looks in the first photo and how much Anna looks like you. Beautiful family!

beautiful!

Thanks so much for sharing the photos!

Simon has such beautiful eyelashes! Isn't it crazy what good eyelashes boys get? I'm a little jealous! =)

Love all of the pics but my fave pic is the one of you all at the table.

precious memories!

I love the one of you all at the table using laptops. I thought that was just my family! The girls have gotten to the point now where they can use the computer themselves. So we've got me on my laptop, my hubbie on his, one daughter on another laptop and the other on the desktop. We are all in the same room together and it made me lol seeing that photo of your family. I thought we were the only ones! Oh how times have changed! TFS!!!!!

Ali, Looks like that MOBY WRAP is still coming in QUITE HANDY. Per your recommendation, I ordered one for myself and it just came on Friday; NOW, all I need is to give birth to this little one.... he's officially DUE on Friday, but sounds like doctor may induce on Thursday if it looks like I am ready... baby measures SO BIG ALREADY! (It is AMAZING to think that MY LIFE WILL CHANGE FOREVER IN A FEW SHORT DAYS!)
You've got a BEAUTIFUL family and an eye for great photography. Anna is getting so big, so fast and she looks like SUCH A HAPPY BABY! (She looks just like you.)
How WONDERFUL that someone else was able to catch a snapshot of you AND your family walking on the beach to document such a great weekend.

Those pictures are gorgeous! Your family is so sweet together.
