New Year, Same Resolutions

January 2, 2011

2011, you snuck up on me! But you’re here, and I’m ready for you. That’s not to say that 2010 wasn’t a beautiful, inspiring, challenging, heart-soaring year. Our sweet, sweet baby Ruby arrived on January 20, 2010, and Eric, Violet, and I have treasured every moment, and every soft, squishy bit of her since she [...]

Snow Angel

November 29, 2010

It’s official: we are in winter. If the plummeting temperatures last week didn’t give it away, the cotton ball size flakes that came down this weekend certainly did. It was the perfect opportunity to introduce Ruby to snow, and fortunately, since she’s growing almost faster than we can keep up with, she was already big [...]

Mmmmmmm . . . yams

November 26, 2010

You’d think that 6 adults and four children would be a reasonable ratio. And it did work for us this Thanksgiving, but I’m not sure we were ever all in the same room!

We did celebrate Halloween, I promise

November 4, 2010

I know, I know . . . it was nearly a week ago. Everyone else has likely busted out their Christmas decorations by now.

My favorites [...]

They take you on a small tractor trailer right out [...]

Our family went to Germany . . .

September 22, 2010

and all I got were these 5 photos! (in terms of pictures, anyway.) As most of our friends and family know, we made the trip the first of September to attend Kyle and Annett’s wedding in Potsdam. “Can’t wait to see pictures!” was the most common send-off I received. As a photographer, I planned on [...]

She’s Three

August 19, 2010

It’s hard to believe, but Violet is THREE!! This was such a fun birthday – she knew it was coming, was so excited to have a birthday party and knew exactly who she wanted to be there. We tossed around a number of ideas for the event, and eventually settled on pony rides at the [...]
