Here are some of the images that Brad and I captured at the Lady Bird Wildlife Center that aren’t focused on the kids.

Exploring
A few weeks ago, before the central Texas heat really kicked in, we took a spontaneous trip down to the Lady Bird Wildflower Center with the boys. We all had so much fun exploring all the quiet nooks and crannies, so carefully laid out and tended with loving care for our enjoyment.
We let the boys [...]

As I sit down to write this, I think back to their birth and how [...]
Trimming Trees and Birthdays
The boys turn three years old this coming Saturday, December 12th. They certainly look and act like three year olds to me. It’s a magical, brilliant age and I can’t believe the time has flown by like it has. All of us parents say that, don’t we?

Snow
We live in Austin, Texas so snow is a BIG deal. I grew up in more northern states and in Europe so I really miss it. Even my 10 years in Dallas got more snow then Austin does. So when they started predicting snow the other day I got excited. I [...]
