The Big Kahuna {Not a Hawaii Post}

Because I have been trying to do at least one picture of the girls on Instagram for each day of 2013 {and I'm succeeding!}, I have been really, REALLY bad at using my nice DSLR camera to take pictures of the girls.  I used to almost exclusively use that camera -- even for pictures at the Children's Museum or the zoo.  But, man, the cell phone is just so much easier to whip out than the giant camera.  I get so used to the quality of cell phone pictures that I sometimes forget I have a camera that can take way better pictures.  Convenience vs Quality.

Well, the other day, I decided I needed to use my nice camera a lot more and it just so happened that the girls were dressed in coordinating Liberty of London {for Target} dresses.  So, these pictures happened.

Later that evening, we had a huge wind storm and David and I decided it would be fun to fly a kite in all that wind.  

It did make for some cute pictures.

So, now, I not only vow to Instagram my girls daily, but I also promise to pull out The Big Kahuna more often.  Good thing I've got gorgeous subjects!
