Fisheye fun

Our cousin Ben is engaged to a photographer, which makes for great discussions at family gatherings. She just got a fisheye lens, so we had some fun with it this past weekend. I haven’t downloaded my tries with it yet, but I just love these photos, courtesy of Steph Stevens Photo (and the last one…

No chicken, just babies

Hope that wasn’t too tasteless for you all, to have the naked babies anchoring a page on how to cook chicken breasts. By way of apology I give you more twin boys and fewer chicken breasts. P.S. Cannot WAIT to see what my Google search terms reveal today! Aren’t these onesies great? My co-photographer-in-crime for…

Food Friday: Balsamic Chicken

Twin boys, age 2 1/2 weeks, still one week from their due date. Taken March 16, 2009. Wondering what these gorgeous little loves have to do with Food Friday and chicken?

Say moo!

We spent some time in Vermont at the end of school vacation week, visiting the cousins (not pictured here, these are just friends of the family), gathering eggs, feeding sweet clover to cows and playing in lots and lots of snow. These girls loved the attention from our little guys, but didn’t know what to…

Hank & Willie Year in Review 2008. Finally.

GOOD GOD, IT’S FINALLY POSTED! Huge thanks to my crack team of troubleshooters. Dear Record Industry, I do not want to rip off your hard-working creative artists. Not even a little. However, let me give you a little tip. If you allowed us to use your songs or, heck, even charged us a fair-use fee…

She almost doesn’t look cold

I’ve taken so many photos of kiddies this fall, that it was really fun to take photos of an adult recently. This is my friend and work buddy Chelle, who is one of those people you are always glad to have around.  Chelle is helpful, thoughtful, kind and upbeat—and now I can add “extremely patient”…

Who knew two-year-olds could sit still?

Not me! This little love is Henry’s pal, and Henry could learn a lot about SITTING STILL FOR A MINUTE from his friend. Just a sneak preview from today for his family. Shannon, you all are up next, haven’t forgotten about you! 🙂 *** In other news, I’m roasting a giant turkey right now. Because…
