Life's a beach.

A few weeks back, Justin's parents took us on a camping trp to the ocean! Oh it was wonderful to hang out at the beach! We built sandcastles, flew a kite and ran from the waves. Then, at night, we built a campfire & had s'mores!

Jordan & her Uncle Dave flying a kite. It was kinda foggy!

Logan & Justin running down to the water!

Buddy & Gunner. The dogs had so much fun at the beach! They ran non-stop & were so wore out. Well Hank drank the saltwater non-stop & ended up getting sick. Yuck!

For whatever reason, the water seemed to be pretty dirty. I walked out into it and I'm pretty sure it was just a bunch of algea.

Logan's first trip to the ocean!

One of our many sandcastles!

Jordan & her little dog :)

This thing was A-W-E-S-O-M-E! It's a water balloon launcher!

Jordan's turn!

She loved the sand. In fact, she took a whole bucket full home!



The guys & one of the girls.. (not sure which one tho)



You know it's fall in the Tutino household when..

I start using my newborn photography bowl as a centerpiece for my kitchen table. I think it looks nice!

I'm drinking hot apple cider while editing pictures.

We have to start wearing boots instead of flip flops.

My house smells like pumpkin spice. 'Mmm!

Edited to add: Happy SECOND day of fall everyone!

Broken computer = NO fun!

My computer has been broken for the last couple of weeks! Ahh! It's driving me aboslutely crazy! I'm just waiting on a new part for it.. Hopefully it will come soon because I have a TON of editing to do! And not to mention I gotta catch you guys up, right? So much has happened since the last time I blogged! Well that's it for now, just wanted to let you all know that I did not abandon you all!!

Logan's Pink Lemonade Birthday Party

We had Logan's birthday party last Saturday and it turned out so awesome! That girl made out like a bandit. Toys and clothes galore. She had a great time at her party, even though towards the end there she was deleriously tired from partying during naptime. Thank you to everyone that came, it made her day extra special.

And here are some of the pictures of the party:

Jordan & Sydnee. They helped me set up - kind of :)

I have to give Marcy some serious props, she is amazing for making these wonderful cupcakes & helping plan the party!

They are strawberry lemonade cupcakes, that's why there is a straw! Cute, huh?

Lemon suckers!

I love love love the detail of these cupcakes!

Strawberry rock candy.

Strawberry Lemonade :) 'Mmm!

Presents!!!!

Singing happy birthday!!

Two.. Really??

I seriously cannot believe how fast time flies. I feel like I just got cheated out of having a baby because suddenly, Logan is a toddler! How the heck did that happen? She is going to be two years old on the 21st of this month. And that is totally ridiculous to me! Where did my little bald headed, always sleeping, sweet baby go? Ugh!

Her birthday party is going to be pink lemonade themed so we had a lemonade themed photo shoot. Justin and his dad built a totally adorable lemonade stand for a prop.

I may be biased but, I think she's pretty dang cute! And she knows it too. She uses those big blue eyes to her advantage. Anyway, here are some images from her session :)

If anyone is interested in learning how to make this lemonade stand, let me know and I'll post the "how to" pictures!
