an afternoon at the park...

Spent a cool afternoon capturing some warm photographs as the sun set on us at the local park...

today at the park...

Took a couple of cameras with me to the park today.  Got a couple of instant photos and then I took these with my Leica M8.  I took the first one as a joke.  I was holding Pyper at the top of the slide and I just pointed the camera down at Sadi, Maci & Tyler and let Pyper act like she was taking the picture.  Because it is manual focus (and Pyper doesn't know how to focus yet), the image was really blurry.  When I saw it on the computer, I knew it was a keeper.  In the second one, Pyper was starting to feel bad again (her teeth are coming in).  That seems to be the only time she slows down enough for me to take a picture.  The third one is the main reason that I have spent all of this money over the years on my many cameras.  To take pictures of my two beautiful girls...

just a visit to the park...

Had a great time today getting to see Maci and Tyler take Pyper to the park.  This definitely brings back memories of Sherri and me taking Maci or Sadi to the park and playing.  We have lived in Greenville since before Maci was 1 year old.  We have a lot of memories of the parks in Greenville Texas.  I guess things such as this are what keep us here (besides the fact that I am too lazy to commute).  Right now our family and all of my fondest memories of Sherri and I growing old together are right here...
