Another Year

Hard to believe another year has passed us by. My baby celebrates his 5th birthday today. I'm a proud Mama! Of all my boys! I think they're the cutest ever! :)

Something Green

The next challenge is to photograph something green. Just about everything green was covered up last night here in Newfoundland with a pure white blanket of snow. Little bits of evergreen peek out from under their winter coat. Very pretty indeed! Looks like it will actually be a white Christmas and not too green! Merry Christmas all!!

So, Day 3 of the photography challenge was to photograph clouds. Wouldn't you know that Day 3 brought a blue sky with not one cloud to be seen! And since then we've had nothing but grey, overcast skies. This morning brought an opportunity for a brief moment that just had to be captured. I debated whether or not to save this one for a future challenge like "sunset." Here it is, categorized forever under "clouds."

The Best Christmas Gifts

I spent a morning this weekend with another fun family. Ella loves gymnastics and Jesse loves to climb trees.

It was yet another reminder of the most precious gifts this Christmas season, our children.

Take the time to make some memories this year!

My Heart On My Sleeve

Today's photography challenge was "What I Wore Today." It seems lately I've been wearing this quite a bit. My heart on my sleeve. Crying at Christmas concerts because I miss my sisters, worrying all morning about my little trout getting a needle . . . Today was no different. A single tear shed for the atrocities some people must endure.

"Tis not long after

But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve

For daws to peck at . . ."

A Self Portrait

So, I finally get around to doing the 30 day photography challenge. Here's Day 1. A self portrait. A pretty time of the year to take photos for sure.

A Close Knit Family

This weekend I had the pleasure of photographing a former social work classmate and her family. It was one of the easiest photo shoots I've done! They were all naturals! Even you, Alex! This is obviously a happy, close knit family. Hugs between sister and brother, tickles from Mom and a delightful sense of humor from Dad.

Here's a sneak peek!
