We shot a Peacock.

Not like that, you sillies... with our cameras! Unfortunately, he was shy and was running away up the hill from everybody. So we weren't able to take too good of pictures. My husband got a better one than I did and I really like his (he was ducking his head in mine *lol*). The peacock also had his his feathers down, so we weren't able to see them all spread out. He was still pretty though.

Sometimes... you just need to sneeze!

I took these pictures on my husband and son's birthday this past January.

How I don't share personal photos... well, I figured I could this way as long as I blurred pretty much his whole face. I just wanted to show his gorgeous eyes. I'll have to share a photo like this of my daughter soon as well. Her eyes are as blue as his are brown.

If you'll notice, in the first picture, you can see his little mouth open. That was mid sneeze. The second one was the after, but I would totally spare even my closest family and friends from seeing that *lol* It's the funniest thing ever though!

Lay Down.

Here's a photo of my little boy earlier this month playing on his Daddy's lay-down. It's what he races on the weekends.

My husband won first place weekend before last! Or, maybe it was the week before that.. I'm confused about which Saturday it was, but he got a pretty trophy that our little boy has claimed as his own! It now sits on my desk so he can see it on a daily basis instead of going to the garage with all the other trophies.

The "Mr. Perfect" isn't my husband's racing name. We just haven't painted his over it since getting the lay down two years ago. We're slow when it comes to the little things... we'll get there eventually though ;)

Sorry for the lack of updates. I recently updated my browser to Firefox 3.5 and have had nothing but trouble out of it since (growls!). I couldn't log onto to Photobucket (and a lot of other sites), except once in a blue moon, without the browser crashing and I got tired of trying and losing all of my tabs. A few nights ago I uninstalled a bunch of silly tool-bars I had and things have been running a lot smoother since then. So hopefully I'll be able to update more regularly.
