My nephew, Jory, turned 7 today and during sugar-fueled frenzy I was able to get the kids to sit together and “pose” for a few pictures. It was fun having all the kids together; we don’t do it enough and I know they enjoyed it. ISO 200, 55 mm, f/10, 1/125 sec

Grateful 365 Day Twenty-one
If you’ve paid attention at all to the news around the Billings area in the last 3-4 weeks you know that we are in the midst of one of the rainiest seasons on record. Memorial Day weekend was no exception and it pretty much rained every day with only a couple hours of partial sunlight […]
Grateful 365 Day Seventeen
As I have mentioned in past posts, most of Montana east of the Rocky Mountains has received record-breaking, river-flooding rain, which has kept us inside for the better part of the last 3 weeks. With very little break in the rain, we are very thankful to see the sun from time to time and when […]
Grateful 365 Day Sixteen
Day 16’s photo(s) sort of stretch the rules I put in place for myself in that it is 5 separate pictures instead of just one and I took longer than 15 minutes putting it together. There was really no way to choose just one photo from the “session” yesterday so I don’t mind coloring outside […]
Grateful 365 Day Fifteen
Day 15’s photo came at the end of a whole lot of photos I was taking of Lilly, Gannon, and Emma putting on a puppet show. Lilly was growing weary of smiling and decided that this face best described how she felt about continuing to be my subject. Lilly and I not only share many […]
Grateful 365 Day Twelve
The kids’ school year is winding down and Mrs. Ferguson and Mrs. Sitte had t-shirts made for all the school kids to wear during the last few days of school. I figured it would be a great opportunity to get some photos of the students in their new shirts. My project photo from today is […]
Grateful 365 Day Ten
This is way late for yesterday, but I ran into some technical difficulties that will be explained later. I took my two oldest kids, Connor and Emma, to a “Christian” rock concert in Billings featuring Disciple, Kutless and News Boys at the Shrine Auditorium. Overall it was a great concert and we all had a […]
Grateful 365 Day Six
Today’s Grateful 365 Project photo is one that my son, Gannon, is sure to appreciate. My parents, Jim and Wanda Schaefer, purchased a home with some property north of Billings and we ventured out to see the house and take in the scenery. Of course, one of the things that comes with property is the […]
Grateful 365 Day Four
Today’s photo was actually a pretty obvious one – the subjects of which I am sure will be appearing throughout my 365 Project. Of course, the two in the photo are my two sweet and beautiful daughters; Lilly, age 8 and Emma, age 10. They became the subjects of my photo today for a couple […]
