Jess!!! Ian!!!

I recently returned from Wales to visit the kids, though "kids" isn't the right description anymore. They're both getting so big. I had a great time and the weather was amazing. (And when we're talking Welsh weather, that's really saying something.)

First, a caveat--trying to get a photo of either of these two is difficult. Usually, I raise the camera and they run away or turn away or cover their face, like this...













Sometimes, though, I could sneak a shot in. And sometimes they'd even pose! (Okay, it was really only one time.) Here are some random pics.

Jess reading (as always)


















Ian sleeping (as always)













Jess looking pretty in a new dress


















Ian looking cool (and a bit like he just rolled out of bed) with earplugs


















Jess in a nice photograph showing off her dreamy side


















Ian's hair!














Here are a couple last-day photos where I at least got them to (sort of) pose with me.




























And let's not forget Holly!
