Tea for two

I really appreciate friends who are willing to visit "around" our kids...kids always make adult conversations interesting and it is always great having friends that roll with the punches and can follow conversations that go from christmas traditions to yes i would love to hold your baby doll and yes this plastic pizza tastes yummy.

Brrrrrrrrr!

i wish

i wish today felt like this (look close, can you see the steam?). it doesnt.

on the way to picture day

fun fun fun for everyone :)

a moment

streams

i wanted to find a photo that would be dreary...but i apparently dont often take that type and i have very little time for searching through files anyhow...i hate how tragedy can overshadow (rob you of) joyful moments...i hate being torn between need to wallow for a bit (while crying my eyes out) and wanting to move on like it never happened...the latter is better for everyone...im mostly tired of crying anyhow...

ever......?

ever have one of those days? today is just one of those days.

oldie, but i likey

these sunflowers are from a street market in manhattan...i would love to go back to NYC for a long weekend some day just to photograph stuff.

this is the way we roll

the kids were pretending to be puppies that were learning how to "roll over" it was adorable :)

photos i took with my son's camera

i am going through about a year's worth of photos because im getting ready to put together an album for my baby girl. i saw this one and thought id post it...i think it was from a trip to grandma and papa's ...i forgot to look when i took it...but i liked it so i thought i would share it...i need to take some more photos...

Uptown

ok...what to write?...matt, you obviously know what this is....we drive past it everytime we visit my parents...it means we are almost there...and the trip is finally at an end :) and once i noticed that in the building adjacent, that a pigeon had flown into one of the windows smashing it and well, remained....and the next trip, i also noticed that a second pigeon had joined it...and on many subsequent trips i have notice how surprisingly well preserved they have remained (matt, you know you will have to look now...lag)....kelly i apologize....but i needed to share...blame my brother...

anyhow, this is a little theater in the uptown area and holds memories for me and my parents...ive always liked the building, sad that it no longer is anything...and...i eventually want to photograph lots of interesting letters and make a composite of their names for each of our childern (and cousins if they so desire - but how many versions of one's names would a person really want) to hang in their bedrooms.
