May has been a tough month, but I am ready to get back into the swing of things. I’m sitting here watching the Bachelorette, hopefully with my sweet Grandmother, who recently passed, watching with me from up in heaven. This was one of her favorite shows. I will miss her calling me asking me if [...]

I wanted to do something different when sharing my Easter photos this year so I thought I would give Picture Collage Maker for Mac a try. For the past decade I have been using Paint Shop Pro and I have never updated the software or tried a different version. Every new PC I have bought [...]

Our Easter was pretty low key…the kids found their baskets and eggs, we went to church and then our parents and my grandma came over for a hobo dinner. I also included a little big of footage from April 1st so I could catch up and only be one day behind in loading vids instead [...]

I try not to live with regrets, but I really regret one thing this Christmas- taking photos with my darn iPhone. Normally under the right amount of light the camera takes excellent photos. But this year the results were really disappointing. They are just photos, but the years are going by so fast anymore. It’s [...]

Photos from Andrew and Ali’s Homecoming in October. I had to laugh because all day he laid on the couch and chilled and didn’t get up to shower and get ready until like 20 minutes before he had to pick up Ali. He picked her up and they got photos taken at Ali’s house and [...]

Karli had a great 8th Birthday party with a bunch of her girlfriends. It was supposed to be a swimming party, but it was so chilly that day we ended up staying indoors. I had a few games planned, but the girls were more interested in running around like wild animals and jumping around on [...]

Once for a quick photo for her invitations, once for the official photos taken at the church and then at mass for her First Communion. She was so cute, she was nervous about it, especially [...]

Where is the slow down button for this life of mine? I have so many blog drafts that I never published it crazy. It’s often that I will start writing something and then save it until I have time to resize photos or whatever and then I never seem to get around to finishing it. [...]
