16. version 1
Put this mosaic together and figured it was perfect for a little smattering of pictures from our Dec/Jan trip to Florida. There are more than what can fit in 16, so there will be another few mosaics coming up.
All of the pictures were taken with the point n shoot and taken by either Timmy, Jack, Patrick or John. I think I took like one.
1. Timmy in the rental car with his Leapster.
2. Blue sky
3. boys at beach in Sanibel
4. all of us at Dolphins game
5. MetLife blimp over the apartment
6. helicopters in parking lot of LandShark Stadium
7. a seat in LandShark Stadium
8. a ‘spider’ at dinner (the first one Timmy freaked out over and smashed and stomped on like it was real)
9. LandShark Stadium
10. big boys on way to beach in Sanibel
11. Patrick at golf range (good form, no?)
12. more football (it was my, timmy’s and the boy’s first NFL game ever. And we only made it thru the first half because everyone was HOT and tired and whiney).
13. Jack’s self portrait, complete with crazy eyes
14. a little ocean dip
15. big boys and John & Hakka went to Gulfstream for a few races
16. palm tree at Ft. Myers hotel courtyard. It was about 38 degrees that night.
More soon…

that’s quite enough, thanks.
Done. With the winter. With the snow. The totally ridiculous amounts of snow.
Well, it does make for pretty pictures.
The boys had off yesterday and today- both snow days. Took a little time out in the snow (now if I can just figure out how to make the ratio of time getting READY to go out into the snow be equal to the time SPENT in the snow, I’ll be all good.). Might be brave and hit a park today for more pictures and snow fun. Yeah, fun.
And with the really huge number of hits on the blog yesterday (guess we have a lot of snowed in bored blog stalkers!) I figured I’d better get busy and post some pictures today for more viewing.
This one I took at 12:45am Wednesday night/Thursday morning. And it’s still snowing…
Florida…. please?

braces.
Yup, Jack’s got em. As of yesterday for the next 6 months approximately. They aren’t terribly bad, only 6 brackets all together. They are only supposed to stay on until the front teeth get straightened out cause he still has so many permanent teeth not yet in. So he got braces on his half birthday, and is hoping to get them off around his 11th birthday. I think we’ll manage.
And I can’t wait to see what other color combinations he comes up with. I have no doubt we’ll see some orange and blue once baseball season starts…

it’s always something…
Timmy ended the day today with a 101.3 fever (no other symptoms as of yet and hopefully it will remain that way). Jack’s getting braces today (count on pictures tomorrow!). Patrick’s got nothing new to report which is definitely a good thing cause the kid’s not had the best of luck with stuff lately.
And according to the weather forecast it’s supposed to be a blizzard here on Wednesday. Not sure whether or not I believe them after what happened this weekend with like NO snow to speak of after their predictions of a foot or more. Or if I should start yelling F*$^ you at the weatherman again when he reports things I don’t like. Which is pretty much every forecast during the winter.
Since it’s been pretty much all Timmy pictures lately, here’s some of the big boys at Timmy’s party. They are SO over my camera, so I’m lucky I got these. Getting a picture with the braces is going to be a challenge. But I’ll win…

the mahe family
I was so excited to get the call (email?) from this fabulous family for a photoshoot.
I had originally taken their pictures 2 years ago on the beach. And I was told they had a new addition to the family (another boy), so I was even more excited to do the shoot. Actually, they got in touch right before Christmas but I was way sold out, so we just scheduled for January. Then on the day we were scheduled, it was drizzly and cloudy and I called just to be sure that we would have enough natural light in their apartment. After mom told me about their bay of 12 ft. windows (and I stopped drooling), I hit the road to get into the city as fast as I could.
Between the windows, the floors, the amazing brick wall, the cool staircase and open floor plan- AND then the gorgeous family…can you say photography heaven?
Then it got even better (is that even possible??) when we went outside to the cobblestone streets. Ahhh, NYC is just the best.
Thanks for a wonderful morning! Can’t wait to do it again!!
