I’m being too picky, and torturing my children by continuing to try to capture the perfect picture. After 3 tries, I’ve decided it is impossible. Next time, I’m calling on Andrea or Melissa to come help me. So here are two more options for the Father’s Day picture. Oh, and for the record, I took [...]

How silly am I? Yes, I took a picture of myself to show off my computer AND my new, beautiful necklace made by my friend, Melissa. Since I was taking the picture and my head is so big in the frame, it’s kinda hard to see how big the screen really is….but notice the water [...]

The bunnies have returned, and are invading our yard again. We love our wild rabbits! The other day I was crazy enough to walk right up to them to get some pictures. The one in the front of the first picture (can you see it’s friend hiding closer to the fence?) was staring at me, [...]

These videos may not be as cute as some of the baby videos I’ve seen lately….but I had to share some live shots of the kids. The first video is one I caught of Apple dancing to some silly music in the morning. And as an added bonus, you can hear Taco whining! The 2nd [...]

It’s killing me how difficult it was to get a few group shot of my kids. The lesson: kids behave much better for a photographer who’s not also the Mommy. Apple would not sit still, Reese could hardly be convinced to be near Taco (or heaven forbid…touch him!), and Kiwi didn’t have much patience for [...]

After seeing the “serious” picture that she took the other day, Kiwi was totally INTO taking more serious pictures. I had to convince her to smile in a few. I got lots of good ones!

This is my first post from my new iMAC!! I love my new computer and my 24 inch screen. Woohoo! Thanks, Stimulus Package! The only negative (and it’s not really that bad) is that I am having to get used to lots of new programs, including the heavy-duty full photoshop. The fact that I took [...]

Most of you have probably already seen my new photo blog, but in case you haven’t…..I decided to open myself up for business! My blog is simplyyouphotos (still through blogspot). My link is over on the right of this page. I am having lots of fun! Yesterday, I took my kids out for pictures. I [...]

I picked Kiwi up from Outdoor Ed today. Two and a half days and two nights of sleep-away camp with the entire 6th grade. Wow. On the way home, we got to talking about her shoes. They were looking pretty beat before she spent 2 1/2 days in the rain and mud. So we took [...]

Here are Apple’s stats from his 3-year check-up yesterday: He is a whopping 28 lbs and 35 inches tall (all approximate….he was quite un-cooperative with the nurses.) We had our reunion visit with our old pediatrician–the one we LOVE but had to leave over 2 years ago because of insurance. It was wonderful to be [...]
