Since spring finally appears to be here, we have a couple photos with a springy theme. Click here to see the full set. We’ve got the kids in their Easter outfits and some shots of tulips. Not everything has bloomed yet, so we’ll have more to come. Tulip depth Kids in their Easter outfits
In the midst of the rain on Friday, the weather cleared up long enough for us to get some rainbow shots. These pics were kind of on the end of the rainbows, as I had to run and get the camera. But we did get some nice shots anyway! Click here to see the rest [...]
Mason receiving a snowball OK, so if you’re one of the few, the proud, who visits any of our online stuff (blog, Flickr, YouTube), you’ll know we’ve been slacking off lately. And we keep generating digital information, so I had to do something about it. I decided to publish some of our backlog of photos, [...]

The flowers are about 4 inches across and the whole vine is about 5 feet tall and the entire trellis is covered with these blossoms. I have never seen [...]
It’s official now. When the swing set gets put in, we’re settled. Granted, the boxes have been unpacked for a long time, but this is what shows that we’re here to stay. We’ve had this swing set for 12 years, and it’s been planted at every house we’ve owned. Every time we swear this will [...]
