Highlights of 2010: Year of the Tiger

According to my Google research, the year of the tiger's keywords are: drama, intensity, change, and travel .... ooh, sounds like it was an exciting year. Here are some of the Ausk photo highlights (though it's hard to narrow them down to one posting)!

Two years old!

"A two-year-old is kind of like having a blender, except you don't have a top for it."

Perrie Grace turned 2 yesterday. Hard to believe that it's been two years since she graced us with her presence (at 4 in the morning, of course). Everyone agrees that she looks like Brandon, but she certainly has a personality all her own! We are looking forward to enjoying another year of her silly antics ... and probably a little of the "terrible twos"!

Happy birthday Perrie!
