Migration.

The beautiful autumn foliage has passed. The trees are now dormant. The corn fields have been harvested. The chill of winter has arrived.

Neglecting Fall.

I am the kind of person who used to wait all year for the coming of fall because it meant the following: crisp cool air photographing gorgeous fall leaves my birthday my anniversary friends by the bonfire pumpkin carving hot soups scarecrow making Halloween decorating (my favorite holiday) But sadly, I have yet to be […]

Happy Birthday to Me.

And for my birthday (though she didn’t realize it), my cousin Crystal just sent me these random pictures from her collection: This is Halis, Isaac and me at my Cousin Jeff’s wedding … being loved on by my second cousins Ana and Lauren. By the way, Isaac’s face is one of excitement … not pain […]
