Teagan, Adelaide and the mud puddle
When she flopped down into the mud, I could tell this was a battle I wasn't going to win, so I took off her dress and grabbed the camera.
Mud, glorious mud.

Everybody redux
I don't know what this face means or where she learned it

Kim had this idea -- everybody would shake their heads from side to side really fast and we'd take photos of it, and those photos would be great. Liam and Teagan volunteered first.
Then the whole family got into it.
Me and Kiefer gave it a shot. It gave me a headache.

Stripes!
Keith, in a rare instance of not cooking.
I can't convince her that the sunglasses go on the other way. It's cute now, but when she's 15 and can't put them on right... I worry.
We hit West Edmonton Mall the night before we flew home. I don't think Addy knew what to make of it.
Aboard the Kiddy Train at West Ed.
Kiefer on the crazy swings. Adelaide thought this looked like fun, but sadly she didn't meet the height requirement.
In the hotel later that night, quite clearly not sleeping. Not even thinking about sleep.
