Hanging with that ER dude, so will a picture story work today? I hope so, because here it is:
Air show….and why saving for an SLR is a must. Speeding jet at a distance…..taken in “action mode” while tracking the very fast jet.

Same picture magnified.

Another shot at a distance.

On the fly

I really hesitate these days to post on my down days. I am not sure if it is that I don’t want to document my fears and have to read about them in the future, or that I just simply am afraid to verbalize them. Maybe it is that I want to keep things [...]

How blessed am I to love someone so much.

The weather was a bit to be desired this weekend…cloudy and windy, windy, windy.
So, what do we do?

Photo blogging

While on a bike ride together…
me: I am so loving this!
Bill: Loving what?
me: This being together stuff.
Bill: Oh
me: So, is this like, more important to me than you?
Bill: What do you mean? How would I gauge that?
me: Well, okay, then I will re-phrase…How important to you is it [...]

Photos from this evening

I am the proud owner of a Nikon D80 with 18-135mm lens, purchased almost in full with my ad revenue, which makes it all [...]

When I love her most

We wake early at our house. It doesn’t matter if it is a school day or not, we rarely sleep past 6:30. When we do, we feel hung over and funky all day long.
The kids are up, dressed, fed and ready for school by 7:15, and because Bill’s motto is “If you are [...]

Imagine that

Sweet siblings

I tortured myself today and took the kids on a wildflower photo shoot.
After todays session, I know that I will go to heaven, because I have already served my time in hell.
Eh, it wasn’t that bad, but it was frustrating. I did get a handfull of nice shots, but not with all [...]

A photo shoot that felt alot like trying to put a sweater on an octopus

Not that kind of screwdriver…getcha mind outa the gutta and read on.
My whole life I have been very independant. Fiercly so at that. I did everything myself, and even though my brother was 5 years older than myself, I went everywhere with him. It drove my mother up the wall. All [...]

The screwdriver

Waiting my turn

Today we went to Easter service and the annual egg hunt our church hosts.
Mia was decked out in a dress of such princess splender, well, it was splendid.
The boys wore blue jeans and a dress shirt. Hey, there were no holes in the knees and I am quite certain Jesus was not concerned [...]

Mia knows her brew

How cool! I received an award!
Lammy Ann awarded my post Scrubs for the Thinking Blogger Award. Thanks so much!
I, in turn, must nominate 5 Bloggers with this honor. Hmm. Let’s see…..
1. Amalah and her post “On having a boy”, because, yes, boys are fabulous! By the time Mia [...]

Think

They say that it comes in threes.
We are re-defining that little phrase, and I can only pray that it stops…as of yesterday evening. Please, already, STOP!
In 9 days time:
-Bill locked his keys in his truck while he was at work and spent hours fishing them out with a coat hanger because the police in town [...]
