Brent, Enjoying Life

Brent seems to really like the new couches we got off Craigslist and the new backpack/diaper bag we got at the Swap Meet in Town. He's so cute about fabrics!

Photography Blog

For anyone who is interested, I am redoing my photography blog: The website is: http://lucassmithphoto.blogspot.com

Nursery

Every Tues morning Mommy goes to a ladies' Bible study while Amber and Brent play in the nursery. Amber loves being with all the kids and Brent does too now, (he used to cry for 2 hours until I came to pick him up). Bible study is on summer break for the next 2 months, but we look forward to going back in August.

Lovin'!

Amber has been loving the swing set too (along with her favorite stuffed animal Kirby). The kids love their Daddy (and vice versa), and all the fun piggy back rides he gives. Mommy passes on her love of the oreo ice cream dessert to Brent. :-)

Little Friends

Our friends are moving off island (back to the mainland) in two weeks. We are enjoying our times left together here.

Riding Bikes

Heavy Lifting

Play Set

Brent and Amber love playing on this Little Tykes set we also got at the yard sale. It's the perfect size for our little side yard.

New Scooter

So we hit an amazing yard sale the other day - so many barely used toys for cheap! This is the new scooter Amber got. It's quite a Cadillac. Brent likes it too. Oh...and I cut little bangs for Amber.

Mechanical Brent

Future Mechanic

Found a couple more pictures from our trip to the mainland. Of all the things in the backyard at my parents house, Brent went straight to this. My plan is to have him changing the oil on our cars by the time he is 5 ;-)

Fun Eating

Brent could model an ice cream stash pretty well i think ;-)

Moved to HI One Year Ago

Exactly one year ago we landed on Oahu for our new life! Here are some flashback pictures. :-)

With Friends

Our precious friends down the street, Hannah and Corban. We will surely miss them when they move to PA next month. All four kids have been such buds!

Too Funny

I let Amber have a sucker for snack the other day. When I came back to check on her a few minutes later, this is what I saw. Too funny! I had to take a pic!

Easter Celebration

Because we were all sick over Easter, we had our celebration a week late. HE is still risen, indeed! The kids enjoyed being able to eat chocolate for breakfast.

Work Picnic

Two days after arriving back home from travels, we all got sick for 8 days. It was rough. But we were all healthy just in time to go to Lucas' family picnic day at work. Amber really liked the hand paintings she got.

Cute Kids

Final Family Moments of the Trip

I love cuddling my babies!

My Aunt Karen and cousin Katerine:

My Aunt Cheryl also stopped by (and helped introduce Amber to the world of Barbies):
