This past weekend - Andy finished his observation of the Family Court Judge here in Lexington. He really enjoyed the time he spent with this Judge, and learned a ton. I even went and sat in on an adoption so that I could see what he was talking about. It was pretty neat. Andy mainly saw divorces and custody battles. Let's just say he has an even stronger will now to never tick me off! ;) Anyway - to celebrate, or just fill up his now free time, we went to the beach at Lake Murray by our house two days in a row. It was pretty windy - but Andy and Stella still enjoyed playing in the water - a ton! I was more comfortable being the designated picture taker from the sand. Much warmer. I couldn't believe how long Stella wanted to stay out in the water. I made Andy bring her in when she started shivering. Otherwise she would have stayed out there all day. Andy was letting her "ride" the waves, and she giggled and giggled. I am glad she loves the water so much! I LOVED the beach as a young girl - and could stay out in the water all day long. I still could if I had plenty of time to get used to it. I can't just jump in anymore - but once I'm in, I don't like to get out.
Stella crawled over to make friends with a couple of kids that were playing nearby. Turns out they are in our stake. Both of the kids were trying hard to win Stella's attention. She was loving it, but also feeling a little confined when the girl kept putting her hands on Stella. She handles crazy kids pretty well though. She is gonna be a tough cookie.

Ok, I'm really tired of you and your awesome pictures! No.1 item on my Christmas list, an awesome camera! Those pics are so cute and that blue bathing suit is the one that Savannah has too! She wore it in Jamaica but we'll see if she still fits in it in Hawaii. As if she doesn't have enough bathing suits already!
Melissa, these pictures are so wonderful, on many different levels. The expressions on Stella's and Andy's face are adorable. And her crawling over to make friends, is so sweet. Great pics. It's so nice to see what you are experiencing also.
She looks so adorable in her little swimsuits! I love the pictures with her daddy too... so fun!
These pictures capture the moment so perfectly! What kind of camera do you have?
