Ray and I are out for a walk. Why do I look thicker than he does?

(Melissa telling Jen) "No really Jen, I ate a bag of popcorn in the show yesterday that was this big. Do you think that's ok with the food plan we're on?" "Hmmmmmm, thinks Jen. I don't know. Maybe we should call and ask Xochitl."

It's Wednesday and we are at it again. Jen's mood was significantly altered following the fun she had repeatedly jumping in the air with Ann.

Jen's favorite of the dance pose in Yoga.

My favorite of Jen because I see the joy in her face, and, her hands come alive.

Neither Jen nor I could decide which we liked better of this and the next photo. I like seeing Jen's expression in this photo and again, her hands always show respect and joy for movement.

This shot is better in that more of her silhouette is visible in the composition but I remember how long I made her hold this pose while I was fiddling with the settings.

Just when we thought we couldn't have any more fun shooting we both simutaneously starting kicking one leg up, then the next leg as we neared the end of our morning hike. I couldn't pass up shooting my favorite thing, shadows.

The beginning of a short window of color on our hike this morning.

It's at about this vantage point on our hike that the color, if we have color, is a perfect photo backdrop. The girls know I'm going to ask them to assume some unique pose. This morning Jen does a handstand on some rocky ground while Ann holds her vertical for THE shot.

Jen and Ann. Jen was getting a little nervous about being late for work, but still stopped with Ann because the color had peaked as we resumed hiking since the previous shot. We were out of ideas and didn't have much time to think of any. The girls just started being silly as they jumped around. THIS was THE shot.

The first of many motion shots with the morning color as our backdrop. Jen is always ready to test the waters.

Quincy and Marco joined us on our hike. Thanks Quince for being a good sport.

Jen, Eric and Melissa as the sun begins to light our trail.

The girls just keep coming up with great ideas for poses.

Melissa beginning the water spitting game.

I was a fraction of a second late, as Jen had just blasted Melissa in the face with water.

Water spray fun gone bad.







This is how the water fun had looked up to the point that Jen switched the rules of play and blasted Melissa in the face instead of going over her head.

Just kidding:-)
Ok, really, I’m just kidding about the second just kidding.

Before our hike even started. Hope Eric doesn't see this and ask Melissa what she is doing.

The poses begin.

Aaaaah, so cute.

Taking turns lifting each other. All for the shot.

Ok Jen, which of these do you like best. This one? Or, the next one.

I'm partial to this one as I see that mischeivious look in your eye.
