Scarlett told us her new joke: "Why was 6 afraid of 7? Cause 7-8-9!" haha! Classic. Well after Scarlett said that, Siena told us this joke: "Why was 0 afraid of 10? Cause 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!" hahaha! Oh my! So creative! Well Jaide wanted in on that action, so she said: "Why was 4 afraid of 5? Cause..... Cause......... I don't know!!!!" hahahahaha!
Skye enjoyed all the colors and the floating balloons. She was clapping and pointing at all her favorites. She is so yummy! But man, she was tired. Look at the picture in the bottom left, Skye rubs and pinches her neck when she's tired.
We had a BBQ for the 4th of July in Draper with the Glauser clan. It was 90deg and H-O-T! Before our dinner we had a little photoshoot. My mom and James came up to take the pictures and I did the editing. Funny thing is that this photo is already outdated, Carolyn's twins are here and Kassidy is getting married next week. I guess that's the tricky thing with a large family - it's always growing!
This the before and after the edits. I did my normal photo editing, plus a BUNCH of other fun stuff. My hand was so cramped after working on it! I added trees and grass to the background, desaturated the green of the nature (so it didn't take away from the colors of the clothes), added Kassidy, took away McClaine's hand, switched 4 kid heads, etc. The only things I'm not 100% happy with are Kassidy and Jaide. It's easy to swap heads when you use pictures taken at the same time. But both of their heads were taken from pictures at different locations. I watched a TON of tutorials and used all the tricks I could find to get them to match, but it never looked just right. I even changed the reflection of colors on the side of Heber's face now that Kassidy was there and not his dad's bright blue shirt. It was a learning experience and the best I could do. The picture of Jaide was later that same day but in a different location when her mood was much more cheerful.
After the picture our girls changed into their swimsuits and enjoyed Grandma's Pool. Uncle Nate flew his cool new drone! On our way home we saw a bunch of aerial fireworks. We even stopped in a parking lot so our girls could watch some. Then when we got to Orem we were able to watch a bunch of fireworks from their backyard. It was such a busy and fun 4th of July!

I think the photoshopping looks really good! It's amazing that technology--and SKILL--let us add Kassidy to a photo a couple months apart. Thanks!
Also, I really like the picture of the hot air balloon taken from underneath with the sky as a background. Very nice!
