So, back in early May Kylie and I went to a backyard cookout/get-together at a friend's house, and I took my camera along for the ride.  While we were there, I casually photographed some of the kiddos playing in the backyard and mentioned I'd share the images with the parents.  Let's see.... that was over 4 months ago.  Kinda like the notorious monster fish your buddy allegedly caught but no one's actually ever seen, the images from that day back in May have become that fish... until now.  The other day I was perusing through my image archives and stumbled upon the images from that get-together.  So, without further ado, and to get the ridicule of my friends off my back and to make that monster fish real, here are the images from 4 months ago. For some reason, every time I caught Max looking at me, I also found myself staring down the barrel of one of his assault weapons.  Maybe it's because I posted this image back in '07 for all his future girlfriends to see.

Here's little Ryah.  She's a poser and a natural in front of the camera.

Sweet Julia has the most amazing eyes...

... and fun whispy hair.

Wish I hadn't cut her hand off in this image, but I still like it.

Nevin's one good-lookin' dude, isn't he?  Looks a little like a young John Travolta starter kit in this image.

And here' Nevin's sister Naomi.  Two words... fun & adorable.

Ahhh... baby Harper.  So pensive and precious.

Max seems pleased with this arms deal.

Poor Sam.  He and his pirate hat weren't getting along.

Big man Loric in his warrior gear. I believe he shot and/or stabbed me and proclaimed me dead roughly 14 times.

Apparently Transformer masks were better suited than pirate hats for Sam on this day.
