It's been a while. So many pictures of the kids and not many pictures just to improve my skills. But here are a few just to get myself going. More and better to be posted soon.

These lambs, Shake, Bake, Flicker, Christmas tree, and Barnacle basket, cannot be deterred from invading the yard. They are fun to have around. The irises and lilacs beg to differ.

We had some excellent snow last winter.

Tasty snow at that.

And lastly, a special treat, even if it required night vision. After all, it's not often you get to see a ninja in action.

I'll be back soon with some photos from the Oregon coast. Feel free to leave comments about the length of time between posts, how these photos could be immensely better, or your favorite recipe.
