Day 354

New Years Eve Already...?

It is New Years Eve and I took this early picture of Lila in
her new Dora tent.

Day 353

Birthday to you.

It was mommy's Birthday, so we celebrated in style
with a sweet treat from the West Side Bakery.

Day 352

Frozen Times

We spent a portion of the day at the Cleveland Zoo.
Outside, you can see animals and an ice sculptor at work.
Inside, is the warmth of the Rainforest with lots of exciting things
to see. Just be careful not to let a bird poo
on you in the process.

In this photo Lila wanted nothing to do with being a part
of this image. I think that is why I love it so.

Day 351

Thoughts from the while when
we used to be pure and unseen at night.
Sounds would echo in the hallway.
Nothing mattered or would ever be the same.

Day 350

Late Italian Dinner

We celebrated with some pasta and stuffed shells.
Delicious and messy at the same time.

Day 349

Mess with the Light Show

Nite time light show as she tries to
go to sleep.
Some nites are better than others.

Day 348

Christmas Day

A beautiful picture with the loves of my life.
A special moment.
A wonderful Christmas to remember for years to come.

Day 347

Eve before Christmas

Hanging out in Painesville on Christmas time makes for good eats
and a fun time with a dancing baby.

Day 346

Fun for the Holidays

It was great to hang out with some of my good friends for the
Holiday. I especially like the creepy guy hanging out
in the background of the first image.

Great times.

Day 345

Dinner

I can't believe I allow myself

to eat this crap, but we all do from

time to time.

Day 344

Self Image

Another close up of my face.

Interesting at times.

I wonder what I am thinking.

Day 343

Photo opp

This is one of the few photos I took where she

was actually looking at me and smiling.

Precious, priceless moments.

Day 342

Footsteps

Some one had been here before.

Perhaps dozens of people.

Had they stopped fro a quick glance to see what

I had just captured?

Or had they simply moved on.

Day 341

Winter Days

A beautiful sunny day in the winter snow.

Diamonds dance across my path.

Solitude surrounds me as I pass through a frozen landscape.

It seems forgotten for the moment.

Day 340

O Christmas Tree

I snapped a quick picture

of our Christmas tree.

It is the time for festive fun.

Day 339

Self Exposure

An interesting self composition

I made earlier today.

I still feel these are interesting if you get

the right angle.

Day 338

Snow covered pavement

This picture shows some snow left over in the parking lot.

Day 337

Another Day

of snow and terrible driving conditions.

Hopefully we will get thru this soon and

on to summer.

Day 336

Hiding Spaces

This is her latest place that she likes to find things

and have fun.

Day 336

CLE

brunch at the west side market,
a walk by the great lakes brewing company,
then
spent a good portion of the day in Lakewood at the Bizzare Bizarre.

I enjoyed some craftiliciousness and some great artwork as well.
tis the season for friends, family & great artwork.
i purchased a great piece from hero.

Day 335

Just in time

Arrived right before they were closing.

Just enough time to enjoy a few doughnuts & a not so

fresh cup of joe.

Day 334

Beauty in Winter

I put on my hazard lights on a main road, got
out of my car and composed this photograph.
When I had turned around I realized I had created
a traffic jam, jut in time for rush hour.
All in the love of something real.

Day 333

Another Gobble Gobble experience

Rockin some gobble attire just in time for dinner.

Day 332

Fun Times

Lila rockin' the personalized gobble gobble,
while I went with the knitted cap complete with ear flaps.
Life is oh so sweet.

Day 331

Let it Snow

I took this picture on on first official day of snow.
This morning there was at least a foot of the fluffy
white stuff. Not the best way to start a monday, but it looked
pretty.

Day 330

Chillin' on a chilly day

Making our way to do some holiday shopping

I snapped this pic before we left.

She never stops looking adorable to me.

Day 329

Tiny little turkey

Lila made this at school and loves wearing

it around the house.

When she puts it on I start to gobble and it makes her

laugh hysterically.

Day 328

First sprinkle of snow

The first dusting of snow has covered the ground,

just in time for the holidays.

Makes me think it would be a good idea to invest in

a snow blower this year.
