For Brian's Benefit

Brian has started a new Search & Rescue contract in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. He'll be up there for about 2 weeks and then home for about 2 weeks. While he's gone, I'm employing the power of the internet to keep him updated on our daily activities. Today Kylie kept herself entertained for quite some time posing her tiny horses and taking pictures of them. She took approximately 1,000 pictures of each horse in various poses on the table...none of which were in focus. (Thank goodness for digital cameras and rechargeable batteries!) Then she got the brilliant idea to stick the horses in my planter to make it look like they were in the woods. These were the best of her many pictures. She is such a cute little bug! It's so fun to watch her little mind work. I can't believe how much time and detail she put into posing the horses and getting the camera angle just right on their faces or bodies, depending on the look she was going for. I think we may have a little artist on our hands!
After the horses' photo shoot we "headed into town" (aka drove into Logan) to do some school shopping. Kylie found some shoes that she absolutely loves--I need to get a picture of her modeling them. We couldn't find any clothes that we liked for her, but I found a couple baby boy outfits that I really love. My "nesting phase" has officially begun and I'm feeling anxious about getting everything in order. I also have more energy these days, which is wonderful, and I want to clean my house from top to bottom with a toothbrush. I'm going to applique a helicopter or two on some of these shirts, as seen on a previous post. It will be a fun project while Kylie is at school.
