Big White
I love to share a great place with all of you! A great place to take the family for vacation! The shout out goes to our friendly Canadian neighbors above us! This place was throughly enjoyed by our little group! Check out Big White, Canada! The scenery is breathtaking. Every night the lodge is set up for the kids into a carnival or video game rec room. The skiing is comparable to Whistler, just smaller. The tubing is fantastic. And things we didn’t even get to do were ice skating, sledding, snow shoeing, and more! The only thing we would do differently next time would be to not travel at night. The weather conditions can change quickly and make the trip so much longer. What should have taken 7 hours took about 8 and 1/2. We were almost in a blizzard on the way up. At one point, we were sitting in our car with the engine off for an hour. Just waiting for the traffic to clear from an accident due to the snow. However, the way home was clear and sunny. We hope to make this a yearly trip!

Dominoes
I am hoping for the domino effect here and gain some new readers! Hardy har har….
Today was a pretty good day with the little ones in the family. A day of games and adventure. A day of the funnies. The kids were rolling down the hills. Some of them falling in the mud. I’d say we had some pretty good laughs. What’s a better quality than to laugh at yourself?! Here’s to a great week! I think I really am going with the new blog. So far I am very pleased with the changes. 


This was a cute one that I loved of my sis!
Here’s my boy. What a funny kid! Did I just say kid? What happened to my little baby?!

So this is basically for my own benefit. Don’t get too excited. I wanted to see how the watermark looked made in Lightroom. They really didn’t make it easy, but with my Dad’s help there is a way. I’m sure with a little more tweaking I’ll figure out how to move the watermark to the bottom of the photo. But, this will work for now.

Woodpeckers and a Wedding Show
So I’m a fan of nature. I love animals. I would never want to harm an animal, but this one has got to go. He is pecking on our house and driving us crazy. Ahhh, isn’t he so cute! What do I do to get rid of this guy? Do I just wait it out and see if he picks another tree or home to demolish. Or do we have to resort to a Bee Bee gun? Suggestions are welcome! This link has a coupon for the show! Two for one admission there!

Having fun with a new lens
We have a new lens to add to the family biz. It’s the canon EF 85mm f/1.8. So far we are loving it. It’s very sharp and makes a great blurred background. More critiquing to come. But here is the beauty.
Our little practice session was at the roller rink yesterday. We had the lens on my dad’s canon 5d. Let me know what you think.



Normally, I wouldn’t put myself up on the blog. But I thought these were ok! Hahaha! Great of the blurred background!
