Has it been a month already!?! This past month has been incredibly stressful with visitors, car troubles, illness, baby sleep troubles and so much more. I hope to get back to blogging regularly soon. The rainy season has finally hit us and with it comes incredible cloud formations. I caught these yesterday.

Life in Black and White – Feb 2014
One of Gavin’s favorite places to play is inside the empty bird houses outside. They are like giant cubbies with doors. The perfect place for a toddler to play hide and seek. This post is part of a year long blog circle on Black and White photography. Please check out Jen Reynolds fabulous blog next.

In my opinion, watching someone edit a photo is the best way to learn how to edit your own pictures. On my photography blog I would occasionally do editing tutorials and now that I’ve combined my blogs I would love to expand on that in 2014. I ‘m also interested in doing screenshot videos as…

We are recovered. Getting ready to start our school week tomorrow. I am in need of a little quiet. Brae reminds me daily that there is “only 16, 15, 14… days of school left until summer break!” So tonight, after she was in bed, I spent a few creative moments with my boy.

So, what happens as soon as I recover from Gavin’s growth spurt? Yup, we all got strep throat. So today I did my best to keep Brae’s near constant “i’m sick” meltdowns at bay and we huddled together on the couch watching reruns of The Big Bang Theory. I hope to post everyday this week,…
