I met Kelley at a bachelorette party for a friend of mine, that is now her sweet sister in law!   I am so excited for Kelley to photograph my crew... Pray for her, as it is not easy photoing my crew!!!  She does beautiful work, and I can't wait to see what she can do with us!!  We haven't scheduled the time yet, but as soon as we do I will post her magic!!!  

The Hidden Boy by Jon Berkeley

The Flint family, a strange collection of relatives and friends, win a trip on Captain Bontoc's Blue Moon mobile for a grand holiday!  

Once they arrive at Bell Hoot strange things come about!

Bea Flint finds that she is the only one that can save her brother!

Grab The Hidden Boy, a comfy seat and see if she is successful!!

I recently read this book, and I was pleasantly surprised.  At first I thought it was a little slow, and a little weird! :-)   

However, once I got into the book, I didn't want to put it down!

Its got a lot of imagination and charm! a little mystery and some twists and turns!

I would recommend this book to a young reader, maybe 9-11 years old.

If you want an entertaining easy read, this is a great book.

If your child likes fantasy-mystery I think this would be a great book!

4th of July Family Fun!

I hope that you enjoyed the 4th with your family and friends like we did!!  

We went to our local mall and danced the night away to one of our favorite local bands, BOOM! Kenetic!! 

 Check them out at www.boomkenetic.com

The girls and my husband and I loved them!!!

I think they have a new "groupee"

The boys, however, were not as impressed....

Of course, we had to have snacks!

YUM-O!!!

Then it was time for fireworks to start...so we got out the noise cancelling headphones, turned on the tunes and put them on my sweet girls ears...  one giant BOOM!!  later....

And here we are in the van.  Boo.  Once safe inside the confines of the van, (did I mention we couldn't open the windows, so it was HOT in there) she sat in my lap NOT watching the fireworks.  

The rest of the family, sat outside in their lawn chairs in the parking lot and watched with awe.

Happy Independence Day!!!!!
