Alyah, Class of 2014

Meet my cousin, Alyah.  She lives up in the bay area, but usually every summer, she comes down to San Diego and hangs out with all of us.  We love it!  I seriously can't believe she is a senior this year!  I remember spending time with my Aunt up in San Francisco right after Alyah was born.  Now, she is this stunning and incredibly smart young woman, who is about 6 inches taller than me!

Alyah, I'm so excited for you this year. I can't wait to see all that you will accomplish, and which college you choose. You are awesome!

 Seriously? Gorgeous!

The Moss Family

I came from a family of three girls, so I know, first hand, what a blessing we all were to my parents :) Dave and Leigh have four.  Four times the sweetness. Four times the cuddles and Eskimo kisses.  Four times the sass!  

I had the pleasure of taking some photos of this family last week.  They were so much fun!  Hailey and Talia are gorgeous. I mean, seriously, look at their eyes! Lillian was fun and silly, and was far more interested in the sand toys someone left behind.  Little Amelia was content to be held by her mom and dad, and to watch her sisters play. It's so incredibly obvious how much this family loves each other.  

 

 I am IN LOVE with this photo.  This is how they were the entire time.  I'm sure they get annoyed with each other from time to time, but these sisters love each other!

 We were finishing up some pictures of the girls when we turned around and found Dave playing with these trucks.  He had made a little track in the sand.  We had to laugh!  All these girls running around, he had to do boy stuff for a little.

Vacation: McGee Creek and Lake Mary

 Love his toothy smile!

 He was having fun in the dirt, which is why his face and bib are covered in dirt smudges :)

 There he goes with his hand again! Saying something important, I'm sure.
