I scrapped a visitor...

This little bear was feasting on our apples and mother bear was very close by. They were rather shy, unlike the bear we had nearly in our house last year. When I started to take pictures the click of the shutter made them take off.   (At least I had my pictures!)

Fungi

I love this photo of the fungus and decided to scrap it again. (I guess I really should get out there and find me some new ones!)

One of my favorite things to photograph in the fall are fungi and these were just beautiful.

I can't decide whether I like this or not. 

That bug in the previous post...

That bug in the previous post is really the most fascinating creature when seen up close. It's body is only about 5mm at the most and yet just look at all that detail.

I made this picture when I was practicing my speedlight skills and since I love the way it turned out I'll probably be using it a few times.

Ethan's Birtday Party

Ethan's birthday is on August the ninth and he celebrated it on Saturday. He had a blast! Dave an Lani had rented a bouncy castle and boy was it ever a hit! 

Copy and paste the following link in your browser if you want to see the bouncy castle in action. You will need to give it a few minutes to load properly.

"Chatting" with his friends.

Showing off his new bike. Just look at that grin on his face!

Ethan hasn't quite sorted out yet how to peddle the bike, so Josie pushes him around. Considering his interest in the bike it probably won't be long though until he can do it by himself!

Ice Cream

Ethan had an icecream cone and when he was finished with it he was a bit of a mess. Malia decided to clean him up. Ethan patiently stood there until Malia had checked him over and decided he was good to go. It was just too cute!
