I truly feel lucky to live beside these beauties. One of these nights I will be able to capture the family of bunnies who live in the forest behind our house and take over the field once the horses go in;)
There’s no denying it…
She’s the mama’s mini me ;)Were both very independent, determined, have a huge heart full of love for our family, can be hurt easily, appreciate our quiet and alone time, and she has crowned mama the queen and her the princess of our family.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Something I love about photography, its truly an amazing art, an art thats in the eye of the beholder. Pushing our own limits and pushing ourselves to higher capabilities to reach our true potential.
Beauty right in your own back yard
Have you ever stopped and looked around. In your own back yard. No matter the location or the size. Stop and enjoy, truly enjoy, the beauty of everything.
Overcast, cool and grumpy moods.
Why is it the weather plays such an integral part of our moods, of how our day begins. This morning was no different. Love my kids, but man this morning was frustrating for me, even more so with a sore foot and not able to do what I need to do without being in pain or it taking more time.
Since hurting my foot, household duties have suffered, laundry especially, which was behind the previous weekend to begin with – hey we have a great back yard and this past weekend we used it with friends and family ALL weekend… until Sunday that is when we celebrated my uncles Easter – and I am SO glad we did take the drive to TO 😉
Hubs is great, but … even I hate reading something and then “but”, I like handling MY part of the household duties a certain way, I do not handle things well when I cannot be independent and have to rely on someone else. I do not want to feel like a nag or like Im being bossy… perfectionist side of the Virgo thats for sure. I must remind myself to step back. Step back and let him be the dad and husband he is and until I am better let him do it HIS way. Eeeek can I do that. Its tough. Its so tough. Lord knows Ive been through it so many times with my own health issues. Im not happy at all about this darn foot, especially when we dont know how long its going to take to heal.
Doing laundry isn’t a favourite thing of mine when it comes to folding… I also do not have a “nice” laundry room – its a room everything gets thrown into , thankful its a room yes, but now that we are in this great house I want it to “look” like a room and be pleasant to be in. Pinterest is my friend to find these laundry room examples. Where did the topic of laundry come up – when our daughter claimed she could NOT find ANYTHING to wear and it was THE.END.OF.THE.WORLD. Yes… at 5 its happening already!
My kids hate when I capture their grumpy moods, hehe thankfully though it can take part of the grumpiness away when they realize they can SEE how grumpy they are… helps turn my mood around too lol! The frown quickly turns upside down 🙂
Gorgeous parts of nature… Flowers
I am extremely joying capturing and appreciating the amazing beauty of nature. Really giving me an amazing perspective, refreshing view of my passion, my artistic appreciation of photography.
Macro Spring Love
My macro lens is one I certainly do not use as much as I really should. This lens is one I typically forget just how amazing and beautiful it can capture my subjects. Especially nature.
My Spring Little’s
Such a beautiful, slightly overcast morning while waiting for the bus my children blessed me with ONE impromptu photo op… Yes, one… That is ONE shot 😉
I LOVE it. I love them. Its SOOOOO them, their personalities shines through. In the one shot I got, they took my breath away.
Not everyday is perfect, we have our share of challenges and power struggles 😉 I may be more worried if we didn’t.
I love them. So much. And… I must also send out a special virtual hug to all our family and close friends who our family is close with. Thank you for not only being a part of our life, but also making our family a part of yours. XOXO.
Little moments… our little lives
It’s the little moments that sometimes make everything! I love these little guys, even during tough moments for the mama they are full of love, compassion and ENERGY!
Darkness and Ice in April
I was up a little earlier listening to the wind whistling and whipping around, ice hitting the windows and deck, and then all was silent.
Soon our room was filled with little voices who were woken up by pure darkness… *insert sarcastic mommy face here* So we all slept until about 630 when the kids were up again and I began checking out the situation. Shocked was my response when I realized how bad it was and we may not have power until 11pm.
Let’s be real here, I’m not a “True” camper in anyway. I will camp in a trailer with water and hydro…
As the day went on, hearing we could be without until Sunday hubby got us water to use to flush toilets and also drinking water. Ah welcome to country living lol nope we couldn’t use any water as our pump requires hydro…
We enjoyed a wonderfully bbq’d meal at Mom and Dad’s to celebrate their 33rd Anniversary The cheers were loud when the lights suddenly began to Flickr…and then came on!!! This was the 3rd weekend for us with power issues, good Friday with the pump, last weekend a smaller power outtage and then yesterday. I’m praying that this is it for a while. I am also extremely thankful to all of the Hydro workers!
