Kites

I love this picture.  I love the movement, the moment, the colors.  And, as a secret, I actually took this picture with my point and shoot because I didn't feel like lugging my heavy lens around that day.  I wish I would have had my SLR, just for the sharpness it would have provided, but I love this picture anyway.  It's truly a capture of our real life that day.

This picture was entered into the I Heart Faces monthly photo challenge: All Boy.  Click the link and check out the other great photo submissions.

Take Me Out to the Ballgame

My son is playing his 2nd year of baseball....this year it's A-Ball, which is coach-pitch.  He loves it.  It's a joy to watch him have fun and succeed in something he loves.  I'm hoping we'll have many more years of watching him play.

Moving

Hello!  I've been really quiet lately as I've been preparing for our move to the Seattle area.  We're out here now and getting settled.  Unfortunately, though, my editing computer is on the blitz, but hopefully it will be fixed soon.

Our Favorite Place

This picture lightens my heart.  
Our family, our favorite place, as I hope our boys remember us.

Loved

This little girl has three of the most loving, doting, and fun women in her life.  She is surrounded by love and is going to live a life of adventure.

Let them Be Little

My entry for I Heart Faces this week.  The theme is "let them be little."  This is a "mommy-goggles" pictures of my boys.  We were staying at the little camper cabin you see in the background, watching the sun go down.  Well, as a photographer, I was trying to get pictures of the sunset over Lake Superior, and I turn around, and see this scene behind me.  I'm so glad this is what I captured!  There will be many, many more sunsets over Lake Superior, but this moment, in this place, with my boys at this age, dancing and singing with joy, is once-in-a-lifetime.

Hands

My oldest, working so hard on his drawing.  

This is my entry to I Heart Faces this week.
