The princess surveys her subjects. See this image larger.
Yay, morning boat-ride! All these pictures were taken on September 4th. See this image larger.
*Say, Nina, is that a park?* See this image larger.
Ian, Nina and Grampa Dave all enjoy a quick ride on the teeter-totter. See this image larger.
Ian senses danger but can’t quite tell what’s up. See this image larger.
He looks cute here, but there’s a small white dot heading in his direction, over his shoulder, to our left. It is a small dog, it closed in fast, and it scared the bejeezus out of him. See this image larger.
Facebook profile image… go! See this image larger.
Ian looks perhaps a little too happy… maybe just thrilled to get some water between himself and the canine missile. See this image larger.
Looking cute! See this image larger.
Chilling out on the awesome deck! There’s Great Grandma Betty, Gramma Marcia, and Donna! See this image larger.
Nina liked the bigger chairs, lots of room to maneuver. See this image larger.
Grampa Dave helped Ian write his name with some leaves! See this image larger.
Don’t get TOO comfortable sitting in Uncle Chris’s chair, Ian! See this image larger.
He started looking a little warm and a little tired. See this image larger.
When he started to pretend he was sleeping, I made loud snoring noises and Ian giggled in waves. See this image larger.
But soon the giggling stopped… See this image larger.
and sweet slumber set in. See this image larger.
Nina watches Grampa Dave playing with some hoops. See this image larger.
Such a nice little smile, I love the sun on her face! See this image larger.
These two heard somebody spell boatride, I guess! See this image larger.
Ian watches the ripples disappear behind the boat. See this image larger.
He really likes sitting right in that spot. See this image larger.
The ladies are all in the front, with big smiles! See this image larger.
Nina enjoyed the ride as well! See this image larger.
Beautiful sky that night! See this image larger.
A few birds did a flyover and coasted off on the winds, just as the sun set. See this image larger.
The West-Side Chapmans… What a perfect picture, thank you Gramma Marcia! See this image larger.
A quick kiss! (Did you guys read the story about how a future version of photoshop will fix this kind of motion blur! It examines the pixels, figures out the path of the wiggle, and reconstructs it, clear as a bell! Awesome!) See this image larger.
Have you met the ship’s crew? See this image larger.
Marcia sneaks in a quick smooch… See this image larger.
… and a giggle! What a great smile! It is neat to see Grampa Dave and Grandma Marcia makin’ a little time to be Grampa Dave and Grandma Marcia! See this image larger.
Over at Pat and Eric’s… Ian wins the goofiest face award! See this image larger.
