glimpse - Jan.14
I bought the husband a gift certificate to make wine for Christmas so we went to the wine place to start the wine today...the kids thought is was really interesting.
I only had my little point and shoot camera with me so they aren't the greatest pictures but i'm glad i was able to document the moment

glimpses project - week 1
I'm a little slow posting this. I'm going to try and get a candid picture of family life this year...preferably when the family doesn't know I'm taking pictures. :)
I just love this shot. We love playing hearts and recently found out there's a version of the game where you play with two decks of cards called cancellation hearts. The kids were laughing here because they each played a queen of spades which cancels each other out and sticks someone else
with both of them...which is really bad in hearts. They were pretty pleased with themselves

January 3rd
our last full day in Arizona. The men went golfing and the rest of us went shopping. We then had a great time hanging out and having a few cocktails before we headed out to dinner at a fantastic Mexican restaurant. I had been craving deep fried ice cream all week and finally got it...delicious!!

January 1st
Hooray, Welcome to a New Year!
I'm going to have a few projects going on this year. My first one is a weekly themed project which you will see on my business blog. I've gotten together with some other photographers and we'll each be posting a photo for a new theme each week.
Here was week 1: Newness
We spent our holidays in Arizona this year (quite a change from our usual snowy Christmas) and everyone assumed my daughter was a teenager so she ordered from the adult menu in the restaurants. She's still 12 but has grown a lot in the past year. I'm with her all the time so don't notice it as much so it was strange to see her through other people's eyes. I think this year is going to be interesting as we enter into a new stage of life as parents of a teenager.
The other projects you will see are:
1) An alphabet project : i'm going to be taking pictures of random things that resemble letters of the alphabet. I hope to find at least one of each letter. Would love it if anyone would like to play along with me. It's actually quite challenging.
2)A glimpses project: I love photos that show glimpses into real life...natural pictures that aren't posed. They seem to be my favourite photos of my family so i'm going to try and make a real effort and get some pictures that show what our family life really looks like.
and of course i'm going to throw in some picture a days but it won't be every day...just whenever i feel like grabbing the camera and taking pictures.
wow, that sounds like a lot! It should be an interesting year.
Here are a few from January 1st:
Happy New Year! Here we are celebrating the new year. The kids loved it because we celebrated Ottawa time which is a couple hours ahead of Arizona so the kids were still wide awake.
During the day, we went for a nice hike up Superstition Mountain. My daughter and mother were having a blast walking together and doing a little sychronized sitting routine whenever they saw a bench. Goofballs! :) (the themed picture is also from our walk)
my daughter insisted on a swim in the outdoor pool before dinner so she could brag to her friends at home that she was swimming on New Year's day
