From Easter

We had planned to spend a good chunk of Easter, which was forecasted to be a gorgeous day, doing a stairway walk in Fremont.  But plans changed when Rowan became very sick in the wee hours of the morning.  The girls didn’t mind at all, and declared the day to be one of the best ever (which is what they say of all good days), in contrast to poor Rowan’s worst Easter ever.  That evening as I went out to the store for the umpteenth time that day I couldn’t ignore the golden light spilling out from the west, and arrived at Sunset Park just in time to catch Easter’s stunning sunset.  More photos on Flickr.

Rowan is 8

 

 

 

This sweet boy turned 8 years old the day after Thanksgiving.  We spent the day driving from Santa Rosa, CA to Seattle (16 hours, in case you were wondering).  Not a very fun way to spend a birthday, but I think we made up for it by having a nice family celebration in CA, and then a birthday party for him last weekend.  I meant to post his birthday photos the day after we returned, but then one thing led to another, and, well, basically I’m the world’s worst procrastinator.  These photos were taken in San Francisco.  We lucked out with the most gorgeous weather, and the morning and evening light was just gorgeous.  Anyway, will try and get the photos from our week in CA, as well as a few from Rowan’s birthday party, up in the next week or so.

Pumpkin Patch 2012

I had a goal to get the pumpkin patch photos up onto Flickr before Halloween.  And I made it!  By less than two hours.  Not ideal, but…I made it!

This year we went to Jubilee Farm with a bunch of our friends.  It was a soggy day, but didn’t start raining on us until the very end.

My camera is still (STILL!  Am starting to feel quite irritated with the repair shop.  It’s been about six weeks.) being repaired, but an awesome friend let me borrow her camera for a few weeks (thanks Jody!), so these are among those taken with that camera.  Anyway, as stated earlier, there are a few more photos on Flickr.
