Life :: Lac Le Jeune Drive

Theres one thing Christine and I always try to do when we're together. No matter if it's home, or elsewhere, we always pull out our cameras (or at least one of us does), and take photos of wherever we decide. Normally that involves a trip for tea, a drive, and then photos of whatever we see. Sometimes you can add in playing with camera settings and lighting, falling into a snow bank, or tresspassing... but those last ones we're not gonna talk about (and didn't happen on this trip...)

Not exactly what you expect to find on a dead tree...

 The day wasn't supposed to be great - we were expecting some rain, and wind... but when we got up above the city, everything seemed to clear up on us...

And we managed to find the small ray of sunshine.

Some nice redheads watching us...

It may be the end of March, but of course theres still snow at Lac Le Jeune.



... some at least.

Upon driving back into town, it began raining and the wind picked up - not much, but it was nice to know we dodged it a little...

Pets :: Pioneer Park Walk With the Girls

It's not very often you get a group of girls and their dogs (or not) together... but when you do, it's always fun. This sunny Easter weekend, we opted to meet up at the local dog-friendly beach, and go for a walk around. It was a prime time to meet little Mei, and enjoy some quality time of friends together outside of class and work.

Two things Scrappy Doo loves - water and tennis balls. :)

Life :: Sofia's 3rd Birthday

Where else do you take a 3 year old on her birthday but to the most magical place ever?!
Okay... so maybe we couldn't afford that... and what fun would that be without your friends... and I may be slightly biased (but more on that later)...

But we did take her to her favorite place ever! A birthday at the local Wildlife Park, with her very own encounter, and a nice quiet day to see the animals...

Princess Birthday!!

Can't go that far and not ride the train...

My favorite... I LOVE Barred Owls!

For a March day, it was cold, and cloudy. It made for good animal viewing, but no one wanted to be out in the blustery weather for long... thus, we kept our visit short and to the front half of the park...
