What do you get with terrible lighting and three antsy, uncooperative children? 79 unusable photos. But all I needed was 1. Just a very small sampling of our Christmas card photo shoot... and the winner is.... Wishing you and yours a very happy holiday season!   … [Read more...]

Avoiding Christmas Chaos

November 27, 2012 by Christine

Every year I am almost always finished my Christmas shopping by December 1 (with the exception of odds & ends and stocking stuffers).

It's a PD Day today and I've shipped the kids off to Gramma and Grampa's for the afternoon to help decorate their house. Ours is already done.

Carver Cam

We carved our pumpkins last night. Well...I didn't. While I wish I could rock my orbs the way Grumble does, I'm pretty happy with our lil punkin this year.

FotoFriday: Fall

October 26, 2012 by Christine

I will admit that fall is my least favourite season. Cold. Blustery. Everything seems messy with wet leaves blanketing the ground. But I cannot deny the beauty in the colours. Right in my own backyard … [Read more...]

FotoFriday – Gulliver

August 24, 2012 by Christine

Annual Adventure

August 20, 2012 by Christine

Last Wednesday Sean and I loaded up our van, threw in the kids and headed up towards Ottawa. This was the second year in a row that we made the trek to visit Sean's family at their cottage/home on Mississippi Lake. We had the best time and the only thing to put a damper on the trip was another … [Read more...]
