…even though the blog has been somewhat neglected lately. Our days have been full but when it comes time that I usually post- I am too tired to care too much. But things have been great but flying by unbelievably fast. I’ll try to keep up a bit better, but for today, I leave you […]

There is a tragic aura that draws me into this photo. Flowers are often portrayed as such happy things that are made up of sunshine and warm fuzzy feelings and a lovey-dovey facade. They can be beautiful, but I like to find angles that show a side that’s not so obvious.
Flowers are like a crowd […]

This flower is from the bouquet that Chris bought me for our second anniversary. They were beautiful, pale pink gerber daisies and were beautiful. This one had a broken stem a couple inches down from the flower, so I cut it off and kept it seperately.

Here is another shot I like from the wedding last weekend. The bride and we bridesmaids were getting ready in a pastor’s study before the ceremony, so there were some odd combinations in some of the photos I took… This is one of my favorites.

A dear friend of mine got married on Saturday. I haven’t seen her in two years when she stood in my wedding, but I saw her again and couldn’t be happier for her. Lesli was my roomate for a couple years in college and one of the greatest influences of my life. I am so […]

More baking today for me. I’ve been searching through my cookbooks and sites online for good recipes that I can bring for refreshments on Sundays. I need something that I can make at least a day ahead and save for Sunday. I can’t reheat or refrigerate anything when I get there so it’s been a […]

Sometimes I know there is a lot of work to do, but I sleep in. Sometimes the morning is cloudy but the flowers are yellow. Sometimes all I see are the spots on the mirror but someone tells me I am beautiful. Sometimes my hands are cold but the coffee is sweet and warm. […]

This is one of my favorite shots of the tulips I photographed the other day. This was taken with our Nikon D70 through the lens of an Argus 75 medium format camera. It gives a great effect. The focal point is not quite in sharp focus, and the rest has a nice grainy texture. It […]

I finally feel good enough to move around the house today, so I took these pictures too. These are the beautiful flowers Chris brought me for my birthday. I love the contrast of the pale pink against the green.

When my sweet husband went to the store to buy sausage for breakfast this morning, be brought back these beautiful tulips as well. They are beautiful and bring a bit of spring into the apartment. Tulips always remind me of my Oma. She is from Holland and grows beautiful tulips every year. They’ve always […]
