Caught on Camera

Weekends were made for this

November 30, 2011

A Sunday afternoon earlier this month.   Finding joy and happiness in the simplest of things.  Like a game of hopscotch.  And learning to jump.  When the weather was cool but not cold. When the leaves had fallen off the trees and the calendar said we should be pulling out mittens and heating chocolate, but the [...]

sharing. in pictures

September 9, 2011

Oh hey, two cute kids laying on their blankets playing with their toys.  Boy kid eyes up girl kid’s Elmo.    Girl is doubtful that this is going to end well, but gives boy the benefit of the doubt. Boy is not deterred.    “NO! My Elmo!”   “Fine. I’ll pull your hair.”   “Screw [...]

our weekend in pictures

May 23, 2011

I love weekends so much more when I’m working.  That’s obvious, I guess?  When I was on maternity leave any given Tuesday could have been a Saturday or Sunday.  Other than Craig being home there was nothing to tell them apart.  But now? Now, I start looking forward to the weekend somewhere around 8:37 on [...]

Success is in the definition

December 28, 2010

First off, we only ate Christmas dinner 30 minutes late.  That is exactly one hour less late than we ate last year, so I think I’m getting better at this cooking for a houseful of people thing.  Not that I intend to try it again any time soon.  Next Christmas will be soon enough, thank [...]

She likes the snow; for me, the jury is still out

December 20, 2010

I’ve mentioned my feelings on winter before, correct?  We’ve discussed my disdain for the cold temperatures, my rage when snow, ice or freezing rain keep me house (or town) bound for days on end.  And I’ve mentioned that in this town winters are down right brutal and seem never ending.  So, really. We don’t need [...]
