Spring break

[twilight33]

Oh how lovely it is to not have work this week! Normally we'd be in Victoria BC but I have too much group project work in progress/due this week and let's face it; classwork while on vacation means it's not a vacation. If anything it's worse because you're stressing about how to get it all done while simultaneously trying to do the vacation thing. Ah well, there's next spring.

We were at my mom's for a long weekend, and had both a bonfire complete with roasted marshmallows for s'mores in her backyard and a brief & shining hour at our favorite tulip spot on Easter morning before the rain and massive numbers of tourists on buses arrived. Otherwise the weather was windy & soggy as usual so we really lucked out with the windows of time we had.


These shots are just wrecked when other people are in the background. It was too bright for Kieran to look right at me, but this also reflects the reality of life photographing a 4 year old boy when something else has his attention the majority of the time. Actually, he was really cooperative in the garden but very squinty in all but a few of them.

Lovely! I must say I do miss the fields of tulips and daffodils. I take it your mom lives in/near the Skagit Valley?

Thanks! I love being able to go there, this year I'm ordering some bulbs to have a bit of it around the house for next spring :)

Wow! I love your photos, and of course- you have such a cute subject!

Thanks! If only the subject would hold still for more than 2 seconds they'd be even better photos ;)
