Frio Trip

A trip to the Frio! I wasn’t so sure this trip was going to get to happen, but man, I’m really glad it did. I got a lot of fun pictures, and the kids are actually still there having a blast. Josh and I had to come home to work. Boo… But it did give me a chance to work through these photos without having the kids jumping all over me the whole time. :) It goes much faster that way!

I don’t typically pose photos…but maybe I’ll start trying to do more of it.  This was pretty darn cute!

I gave Tanner a 5-minute lesson on manual mode with back button auto-focus, and he captured several very good photos, including this one of Anna.  :)

Yesterday the boys told me they got Wallace to jump off a 10-foot cliff.  In all honesty, I think it was closer to 15 or 20 feet.  So, I really wanted to take some photos of it today before we left.

She was so proud of herself when she surfaced!  She did it a few times, and then decided it made her hands hurt…  I guess she was hitting the water with her palms open and just kept slapping it hard or something.

BUT…the cutest thing was when the group of them decided to jump together.

Wallace came up from this and said it was the “Grand finale!”  He had so much fun!

I know they’ll enjoy the rest of their week at the Frio, and then it’s off to the beach!

So, the end of the summer is shaping up okay for the kids. :)
