Kids at Maymont Park

Kids, Tim, and I spent a fabulous day at the park (when the weather was much nicer and very dry!). Kids had a good time--Garrett has been there before, but he was a little bitty thing and doesn't remember it. They loved the koi fish pond! Tim and I witnessed a phenomenon that I had not been privy to before: the professional wedding shoot in a public place. This park was crawling with photographers and stazzily dressed couples doing "engagement" photos. Most acted divas that rolled their eyes whenever my kids wanted to drift toward the pond, lest they ruin a her-hand-on-his-chest photo. Fun anyway!

Sea World or Bust!

For my birthday last year, Timmy really outdid himself by taking me to Niagara Falls. I really didn't see how he would do better than that, but then he had the idea of Sea World! I have never, ever been to Shamu-Land and could not wait to visit!

Pumpkin Fun!

If you want to savor the victory of a flame-filled jack o lantern, you gotta roll up those sleeves and dig out all the goo first! Life Lesson #1 for my soft children :)

He Went to...well, Zales!

and bought me the most beautifulest ring in the world (I don't care if that' s not a word!). I have a low-budget camera that can't do resolution to save its memory card, so the picture from the store website will have to do until you see this thing on my ever-lovin' finger! in person!
