The infinity pool in Tahiti


Where the people are sitting under the palm tree is where the edge of the pool is - beautiful pool! Never seen anything like it.

Eels and sharks!


We were swimming and snorkeling in these waters! Misty and I were snorkeling one day and she let out a huge cry and I thought she had been bitten. She was excited she saw and eel - oh I was excited too! Excited to get out of there. These photos are taken from above (not in the water at this moment.) This eel is huge!!!

This was my bungalow in Paradise!




Naked butts, fire and coconut shells - oh my!




The Tiki show in Moorea - it was awesome! Piper just was glued to the show. She wanted to dance so much and then just dropped out to sleep when we got on the bus!

Baliste Picasso Fish in Tahiti


I followed these poor fish relentlessly for 5 days. They are just gorgeous, aren't they? I even had gone over a nest of theirs I guess and one like this just attacked my camera about 3 times. I finally left her/him alone. I didn't take this photo, but I have several photos of this fish. They just don't show off how gorgeous they truly were.

Ready for some ballet?

I took some shots at Emma, Claudia and Louisa's ballet class. I wish they had turned out better. I think this is cute with the sisters's legs and their feet in the correct position - can I just say "ouch". I know I used to be able to do that, but not like these 3 can. They are getting ready for the Nutcracker Ballet in December. Good luck and I hate to say this, but "break a leg".

The answer is - Jim Gray

Okay, I gave credit to Kristen for knowing who this way, but it was really Mark. As you see by Kristen's comments. I still think she is smart! Thanks you two for playing our litltle "who is this" game.

Chris Klein and his girlfriend, Ginnifer Goodwin

Kristen was the winner - she named who this couple was. They were adorable at the ballgame.

Take me out to the ballgame -

So here is where our seats were - 6 rows from the front.
Don't you love the little kid with glasses? He and his Dad were huge Saito fans (the pitcher).
The guy putting his hand up is doing a "no-no" - we were on ESPN all night and they kept telling
people not to wave and stand up. We had to be very well behaved. (We tried!)

And there's the pitch!

I love it! Everyone in the places and the action is going - how fun!

Do you remember Lou?

This is Lou Pinella, the manager of the Chicago Cubs- very cool to see him.

Joe Torres in Dodger Blue

This is the first time I had seen the Dodgers at the field since Joe took over. It was rather exciting.

This brought a little lump to the throat - Mark!!

Here is a little guy at the beginning of the game getting the catcher, Martin's autograph. It doesn't seem that long ago that Mark was doing the same thing. Mark was an honorary bat boy for the Dodgers, you know. His idol was Steve Yeager. Unfortunately my photography sucked during that time. This isn't bad for having a mesh screen between them and me. Isn't that a cute photo? Go Dodgers!

A little star struck -

We went to the Dodger game the other night and we were in the best seats. We had better seats than Vince Vaughn, can you find him? We were in the Dug Out club seats - it was a full buffet of prime rib, turket, etc. Salad bar, dessert bars and then when you go to your seat, they continue to bring you whatever you want for free. Except alcohol = darn! We had a blast. These were Ronnie Brown tickets. We were on ESPN all night. We sat right behind home plate and we were closer to the batter than the pitcher. It was about 73 degrees and unfortunately the Dodgers lost. They played Chicago Cubs. Help me with who the next 3-4 photos are, will ya?
