Street Cleaner.

You would be pretty convinced that we are raising a couple of neat freaks until you ask them to pick up their toys and then you would realize... definitely, not a chance.

They do love to sweep however, both of them. I have to remind Harrison to stop sweeping under the couch and other furniture in the house. I mean in reality how many times do you move the couch to sweep? Apparently 3 days a week at our house. And he may have a terrible habit of not using the dust pan after he sweeps and I and everyone else traps dirt and fur back around the room. So... I like to keep the sweeping thing outdoors. On this night Miles birthday buddy and next door neighbor Waylon helped as they transformed the street as street sweeper workers. Got that?

Love these.

At play.

It's rare not that these aren't istagram images on days like this, but yesterday afternoon I brought out the camera to capture a little of our everyday. I need to do this much more often.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Photographer Child Syndrome (PCS)

Our boys have a condition called Photographer Child Syndrome or better known as PCS. Harrison suffers from more a severe case, but I am pretty sure I self-inflicted it on him when I learning to shoot from auto to manual. It probably took me one hundred shots to get something that resembled something half way professional.  I was far from a natural when I picked up my first Canon and I still learn something new with every session.

With PCS---the boys would rather do anything than sit for cooperate for photos, but once is very great while this happens.

 

 

 

 

And kudos to myself....I printed some the digitals.

 

 

 

Puddles.

April showers bring May flowers.... Or thunder snow? The weather for this month has been up and down. The day night after we took these puddle photos, it snowed... AGAIN.

We had been on a stretch of warmer days after days and days of cold and rain---but now that rain and cold snuck back in. So it maybe just be another couple of hot cocoa days this week.
