seldom looked into." ~Ansel Adams

if you use black and white, you will show the color of their soul.

the photographer and the viewer. ~Ansel Adams

Long Time no post!

It's been just about 9 months since my last blog post...wow time flies. A lot has transpired in that short amount of time. Braeden & Brooklynd are both in preschool. Brooklynd loves his first year and Braeden enjoys going one more day a week than last year and the addition of field trips. We've been to the Children's Museum and the Public Safety Building (including policemen and firemen). We have another fieldtrip to the library here in the next month or so. Then in the fall Braeden will start Kindergarten and Brooklynd will be in the 4yr old preschool class. It's amazing to think that after next year I will have two school age children. Darren is working for Streimer Sheetmetal in Salem at the Oregon State Mental Hospital. It is a long term job that will hopefully keep him working into next year. I am still working at MCAM thankfully and although our business has slowed at times we are still hanging in there. Braeden just started his second year of t-ball at the end of March and Darren is coaching his team. We just celebrated Easter at our annual brunch at my bosses house this past weekend, the boys had so much fun in the playroom and with their cousin Kody and they thoroughly enjoyed the brown sugar bacon this year! Following are a few pictures...
