Ben had his preschool graduation on Thursday night. He was very excited for it and had been practicing the songs at home. Unfortunately he woke up sick Thursday morning and he took a 2+ hour nap that afternoon but with Motrin he was still able to enjoy his graduation and the show after. The next [...]
This has been a great Spring for spotting wildlife in our area. Within a 2 week span I had to stop on my to or from work for: turkeys crossing the road (many times) horny grouse putting on quite a display young porcupine moving very slow snapping turtle and the good samaritan who stopped to [...]
I can’t JUST take smiley pictures of the kids. Saturday night I took Jamie outside to see the sunset in our front yard (I missed the actual sunset with the camera) and I got a lot of cute pictures of her playing basketball, picking flowers, pointing out the new spot the chickens leave eggs for [...]

I had a great practice with boys Wednesday night in our front yard, but their game last night was rained out. That’s the big downside to baseball in NY. Spring weather is unpredictable and frequently wet. I was hoping to get some more great photos, but instead I’ll post some video I took their first [...]
The boys had their first baseball game last night. We got some great pictures and the kids had a lot of fun. They are really loving baseball this year now that they know so many of the other kids from school and other sports. What really amazes me is how much these kids improve from [...]
