Our youngest son loves the wooden railway. This Christmas he got the engine named “James”, which he has since renamed “mine” as they share the same name. Shot with the 50mm prime lens, single strobe bounced off the wall/ceiling camera rear left.

We baked a lot of cookies this year. Ate a lot of cookies too. The kids helped out with both the baking and eating, though some more than others. I had put James in one of the aprons I had made for one of his older siblings and he looked so sharp in it that [...]

The little one helping me work on the lawn mower.

I wanted to share this photo too because it speaks a bit of a story to me. I don’t think our kids really fathom just how big this whole event really is. “The water is gone and the carpets a squishy, but why can’t you come play with me.” is kind of how I think [...]
