My boys are deeply attracted to the creek that runs in front of our house. I’m a bit concerned with what is floating in it. Yeah, it looks pretty in this picture when the water is flowing freely but sometimes it’s not so pretty.  Lifesaver = long...

I had a few awesome shots from today. This is one of them. My little guy and I were rocking our Valentine session until we almost stepped on a big black snake. After that I did what anyone terrified of snakes would do, I ran.  Yes I ran and acted all kinds of...

Snapped this before taking our son to his pre-operation physical  on Friday of last week.  This is him. Beautiful and Sweet. If you are paying attention, I skipped Day #19 and I’ll be skipping Days #22, 24, and 25. After that I should be on track to actually...

As you can tell by the badly done stitching, I’m no crafter. After I created Bumblebee, my son requested a felt cat softie toy in honor of his lost cat Comet. This is what I came up with. Out of all the toys he now owns, this was among his stash that he...

Yes I blog, maintain websites, and I edit photos from my couch on most days. I’m also usually wearing pajamas.  Somebody has to do it Behind my laptop  is my son’s cardboard house just in case you were wondering what that crazy thing was.

Ranger ( our german shepherd mix puppy) gladly wore the glasses while I snapped a photo. Dogs are amazing in that every single morning when they hear you get out of bed, they come to you, kiss you, and act as if they haven’t seen you in forever.  Men should...

The 7 yr old has been asking me for weeks to make him a plush Transformers-like Bumblebee toy.  I have been putting it off because frankly I’m not crafty, and I don’t own a sewing machine. After repeated requests for this doll to be made, I finally...
