Light Painting, a set on Flickr. The kids and I played around with long exposures and glow sticks. It was a ton of fun and the photos turned out great!

Grateful 365 Day Sixty
There is something so refreshing about kids and their free spirits. At one point or another in our lives we forget what it means to truly be “free” and start caving to societal pressures to try and fit into the bounds of “normal” we think are necessary for acceptance. This is one of the reasons […]
Grateful 365 Day Forty-four
Independence Day in the United States is a day in which Americans celebrate the signing of the Declaration of Independence, thus solidifying the fledgling union’s place in history. The tradition is to get together with friends and family, barbeque and either light (or watch the lighting of) fireworks. We upheld this tradition by buying over […]
Grateful Day Forty-one
On the way home from church Wednesday night Lilly saw the sunset and suggested that I should take a photo of it. Being that it was during the “Golden Hour” I was more than happy to oblige and I have been itching to make another HDR (click for my first “published” attempt). This photo was […]
Grateful 365 Day Forty
As I mentioned in my previous post, our weekend was very busy so by the time I sat down to post for Saturday and Sunday, I was so tired I decided to call it a night and catch up today. The photo for Sunday is one that I chose, if nothing else, because my kids […]
Grateful 365 Day Thirty-nine
Whew! The last few days have been very busy and as such, I am behind on my postings – but I did manage to take a few (couple hundred!) photos over the weekend. We purchased a larger pool for the kids a few weeks ago and haven’t put it up do to the rather cool […]
Grateful 365 Day Thirty-six
I’ve been taking Connor and Emma out for early morning mountain bike rides at Riverfront Park near our home and for the most part we have stayed on the east side of South Billings Blvd. This has mainly been due to the presence of much flood water on Norm’s Island; but today we decided to […]
Grateful 365 Day Thirty-two
If you’ve been following this project at all, you know that I had some site issues that required me to take it down and patch some security holes. When I put the site back up I did so with an entirely new look that required a whole lot of time to get “just right.” Because […]
Grateful 365 Day Thirty-one
With the kids being on summer break, I’ve been making a point of getting up early in the morning and heading out with Connor and Emma on our bikes to Riverfront Park. As I mentioned in an earlier post, we are just a few minutes away so we are able to ride from our house […]
Grateful 365 Day Twenty-seven
Despite the fact that the weather in Billings has been anything but nice, we will eventually see summer. To help keep the kids’ attitudes positive and to provide some much needed relief when the heat finally does come, we purchased a glorified kiddie pool today. Of course, with any pool, one needs to have goggles […]
