My Fave From Basketball

I think this is my favorite picture from Marcus' basketball game!

Running the Court

Marcus had fun playing basketball over the last few years, but he's always been able to run faster and longer than everyone else...

Marcus Makes Some Baskets!

Marcus scored a basket and a free throw in his last game.

Snow Day Sledding!

WoooHooo!

Cool Bike

Found a cool bike on a walk with my Sweet-E.

Marcus did video at Blake's gymnastics meet.

Washington Open

Washington Open Gymnastics Meet, at University of Washington. It was fun to visit UW and Blake did a great job in his first level 5 meet. He scored 80.5 points, and was 2nd on his team. His high score on the day was 14.8 on the vault. Video Shot by Marcus

Syncline for Mags (I hope!)

I shot a bit while we rode a pretty cool trail near White Salmon. These are examples of two different "presets" in Aperture.

Yukon Do It Marathon 2011

I was the official race photographer. It's a very scenic marathon, and having a history in running, I really love photographing this event. Lot's of really great moments and awesome backdrops. Karen ran and we spent the weekend there.

Port Orchard

The boys were really great in hanging out while Karen ran the Half Marathon and I photographed the races at Yukon Do It Marathon. I almost got my car towed because I parked on the course in front of a fire hydrant! I quickly moved when the tow truck came up!

Couple on the Run

This was a present for Karen. Jerry gave this to me over the Summer, I must have sent it to him when it was published back in '96! I really love the picture because it captures who we are perfectly.

Wicket & Golden Lion Tamarin

Blake's favorite animal, since he did a report on it, is the Golden Lion Tamarin. He got a stuffed animal version for Christmas.

Standard Shot of Mt. Rainier (for me)

This is my standard location for a Mt. Rainier shot. It's close to home. This is shot with Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5 and preset filter applied in Aperture.

Mary Saviers

The boys with Great Grandma Saviers. In talking to her she told me how she met Gerry, she was 15 and standing with a friend and he came up and whistled at her (he knew her friend). They were married when she was 16, and had Kathy when she was 17!

Kindle Fire

The boys got Kindle Fire's for Christmas, and Karen & I are really jealous.

Made in Switzerland

Blake got this for Karen for Christmas because it reminded us of our Germany/Switzerland trip we have planned in the Summer to visit Hauke, Karin, Gerald and Annette.

Christmas Window

At Becky and Tom's.

Christmas Pup

Wicket is having a great Christmas, lot's of toys and paper to chew up!

Nativity 2011

Couldn't resist taking a picture of this!

Winter Scene

I thought the frost on the fence was interesting.

One of My Favorites

This is one of my favorite things hanging on the wall at my parents house. Pictures of my Dad and his brothers, and my Grandpa Pat and I. Grandma Clara is in there as well. This blog is a diary in a sense for me, I also like to record some things that I see, pictures and the such, so I have a version of them to remember and see when I want to.

Thomas

This is Thomas the cat! I got him from Jerry when I was in Kindergarten. He was incredibly acrobatic. He caught a pheasant in the front yard once. He liked to sit on your lap and purr.

My Mother's Art

My Mom is an artist, especially when it comes to making quilts!

Lock Box

Blake wanted a box that locked for Christmas.

Leo Rubow

Leo is my Dad's uncle, Grandma Clara Leahy's brother. He's been a longtime family friend and is always in a cheerful mood. He is 82 and doing well. It was great to see him.

Mom and Dad

from Christmas. These Christmas pictures are done with a SB800 on remote with Pocket Wizards. Dark house makes this a must! Pretty easy too.
