Year 10 Begins Today


Photo-A-Day #3288

Another Birthday, another start to a year of taking a Photo-A-Day.

Today was my 40th birthday. We started out with breakfast over at Northworks. An excellent meal all around. The kids were pretty good for the most part. Andrew had fun playing all around in the space between the wall and the table. He looked like a little comedian there. We dropped Eva off at school and then went home to relax for a little while before heading back to pick her up from school.

We didn’t do a lot of relaxing but instead went over to the La Salette Shrine and walked along their walking trail. It is a really nicely groomed trail with lots to see including ducks and frogs. I’m sure there will be other critters there through the summer. We will go back to tire out the kids.

For the afternoon we headed back over to pick Eva up from school and then we stayed at my parent’s house and had a nice dinner and then we all went bowling.

Happy Birthday, Memere 2014


Photo-A-Day #3218

We gathered at my parent’s house tonight to celebrate my Mom’s birthday. All of the kids were there along with the three grandkids. Trying to get the grandkids to pose for a photo with Memere was not easy. Didn’t help that Andrew kept grabbing Dylan’s head.

We had a nice meal of Chinese Food from House of Fortune along with some tasty cupcakes that Tara, Shelby and Eva made.

Shot with the Samsung NX300 and the 30mm lens. The kids are out of focus but I really liked the expression on my Mom’s face in this photo. So happy to have her little grandkids around her.
