Garden Valley

We went up to Garden Valley last weekend for the Saturday afternoon for kind of an early birthday turkey dinner, and took a few photos too.

Mom and Dad had just picked their pumpkins before we got there, apparently. Here are a few on the front deck. The house color is accurately represented here, I think.



And here are a few more in the yard while we were trying to set up a scenic tableau to shoot photos of Emily. I took the wrong lens for the job, but I still got a few good ones of her. They're over at the other blog, emilyclaire.tumblr.com (which is also in the sidebar, of course).



And here's a shot of the sun on the hill across the river and slightly south. Taken from the back deck. Or maybe the front yard, I don't remember.

Video test...

Finally Alexis!

We were finally able to borrow a camera to get some of those always wanted photos of the little one. In these pictures she was playing with her mobile and just passed out. I think that she got that gene to be able to sleep anywhere. Must be nice...

this is the luner eclipse that just happened not too long ago.

Mowed grass

I finally mowed the lawn yesterday, and here's a photo from this morning to prove it. The lawn is starting to recover from the brutal July heat, and turn more green again. It also helps that the sprinklers had just gone off.

Emily

In case you weren't getting enough photos of our little girl, here's another one from tonight.
