Abbie did some more portfolio shots of Lakin and Stetson's senior pics. She was wonderful, as always. I think that I got the short end of the stick when it comes to the gene pool in my family! ;)
Lakin is 16, and Stetson is 18

Meet Lulu
During our stay in Guatemala at the Villa Maya, the hotel that was in the center of an ecological preserve, we met Lulu.
She is a wild howler monkey that usually appears around breakfast time. I watched her jump up on the table and steal the food off of plates! She also ran off with the sugar bowl once or twice.
The other cool thing about Lulu, is that she is a mom! The baby monkey was so cute, I just couldn't stop taking pictures of him.

Hair is a big deal
For those of you who know Zach, you by default know the hair. The entire time that I've known Zach he's had long hair. I'm definitely not complaining, he rocked the long locks! However, for everybody else (especially the folks in my family back in Utah), Zach's hair has been sort of a big deal. So when he decided to go in for a trim at a little Guatemalan barber shop, I was surprised. The hair cutter guy didn't speak any English, and Zach speaks even less Spanish than I do - so when Zach turned down my translation services and opted to go it alone, I was skeptical.
I sat in the waiting area watching the discovery channel (dubbed in Spanish of course). They were doing a special on tiger sharks, so I was sucked in. I looked over at Zach during a commercial break and .....wouldn't you know it. After more than 10 years with long hair, he now has the shortest hair he's had since his mission.
After lots of giggling by both of us, and little bit of 'what was I thinking' from Zach, we got over the initial shock. I like the new do, and I think he's pretty okay with it too. What can I say, he's hot no matter what his hair looks like!
...and just in case you can't remember - here's a before picture:

Can you see the crocodile?
Well, we just got home from Guatemala. What an adventure! I'm working on getting some of the pictures up, but I was so excited about these - I just had to post them!
We stayed at a hotel in the middle of an ecological preserve in the rain forest, all the animals, birds, and creepy crawly things were free to roam around. Definitely not like a zoo, where everything is caged.
Can you see the crocodile?
Yep, he's pretty well camouflaged, but if you look closely you can see his eyes peeping out. Here is a closer look:
It's hard to tell from the picture, but he was about 6-8 feet long. Look how brave I am....standing next to the crocodile in the wild!
We had such a great time and I learned and saw SO much. I can't wait to tell you all about it, check back for the travel scrapbook soon!
