Family Pictures!

I'm just going to post some of my favorites! My Friend Brittany did them for us. If anyone is wondering her website is photographybybrittany.com she's amazing!
I love this one because Oaklee looks so annoyed!











Oaklee wasn't having it when we tried to have her walk to us! It was so funny!



Oh she is so stinking cute!

Carnival Cruise!

In June Porter and I had the oportunity to go on a cruise! We drove to California and while we were waiting to get on the ship we went down to the beach and had some fun! There were seguls everywhere and as we were about to leave Porter turned on the car and all the seguls swarmed over me! I screamed so loud and Porter thought it was hilarious so he had this great idea to throw food in the air over my head and try and reenact it. At first I wouldn't do it and had him try it but it just wasn't quite as funny!



Finally he convinced me to do it!



"Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it. "


Here's the cruise ship! We went to Catalina Island! Because of the swine flue we weren't able to go to Mexico, so we were just on the ship the rest of the days!
On Catalina Island we rented a Golf cart and drove it around the Island! What a beautiful view!

It was a little pathetic that we didn't take more pictures but oh well! We had lots of fun and got to relax! The hospitality was great and every night there where little towel animals on the bed!

Oaklee's Birthday!

Opening presents at Grandma Nini and Papa Smoot's house! Since our families live so close everyone came over!

"I'm Rich!!!"

"Uncle Korbin and Uncle Carson laughing at my messy face!!"

Oaklee's Birthday Party! May 23,2009

Oaklee's Birthday was on a Sunday (May 24th) so we decided to do a friend party the day before!! Here is Sadie (Oaklee's Aunt) getting Oaklee ready to go! The party was a Hawaiian theme!

Oaklee all dressed up and ready to go!

Oaklee and her bestest friend Cali waiting to leave! Mom wasn't finished with the cake and they were getting impatient!


Decorating Oaklee's cake for her to destroy!



Finally ready to go!

"This is so exciting!"
We went to the park and grilled hot dogs but we forgot tongs or a spatula so here we are with plastic forks! It ended up being cold outside so it wasn't much of a Hawaiian party! But everyone got lays and pretty beads!

Oaklee loved the Cheetos!

Opening Presents!

Oaklee wasn't sure what to do with the cake at first...



But she got the hang of it....


And just kept going!!


The poor cake was demolished!
"That was so fun!" said Aubrey

When we got home Aunt Sadie got Oaklee in the bath!

"Oh..it feels so good to be clean!!"
