Snake Shadow

Since Lisa posted a water reflection pic today, I decided to go ahead and post this shot of a snake in the water at the zoo. Can you tell that I did not have my circular polarizer on today? See all the reflections? I don't mind them in this shot. Just wanted to point out that I KNOW. ;-)

Brick Egg

There are at least 300 other pictures I took over the last few days that are really neat and that I need to spend some time deciding what to post. For now, I'm going to post this image that tickled me during the egg hunt at my grandmother's house. Just thought it was a cute place to "hide" an egg.

Easter Umbrellas

We were in Lubbock for Easter but the Easter Bunny found the boys and brought them these cool umbrellas along with some other neat things. Thomas' is a pirate umbrella and Jonathan got a frog one.

Eagle

If I were a little less lazy, I might try getting rid of the faint wire lines in this shot. I was able to mostly get them to disappear just by the way I shot it, but not completely. Still like this view of the cool eagle.

Stagecoach Cousins

My nephews Mason and Palmer were visiting over the weekend. We had a lot of fun with them. I have many more good shots to share over the next few days/weeks, but for starters here's a shot of all four boys on a stagecoach at the zoo.

Bored Defender

What do you do when you're team is doing really well offensively and you're stuck playing defender for one really long quarter?

First you practice your whistling.

Then you stretch it out.

Then you notice your mother photographing you, give her a dirty look, and hold your hand up so she'll STOP. But she doesn't.

Then you do a little dance and kick some dirt around.

Then you decide you might as well practice your batting for t-ball.

I'm pretty sure that one would have been a home run.

Goalie

He played goalie for the first time all season on Saturday. He made two good saves and didn't allow any goals and was very proud of himself about it. As he should be!
