Fireworks on Lake Loveland

My first attempt at photographing fireworks from my absolute favorite place to watch fireworks, my grandparents' home in Loveland, CO.  

The above are my favorites, but there are more tagged with fireworks in my Colorado 2014 gallery. Unfortunately, when Smugmug automatically scaled down images to fit onto a computer screen, they developed a lot of artifacts in the black sky. I'm looking into that.

Barnes Memorial Day Party 2014

Great food. Great people. Great fun. The Barnes Family Memorial Day Party does not disappoint. 

To see the rest of my photos from the party, visit the Barnes Memorial Day Party 2014 gallery. 

There is also a Google+ Story that is pretty fun.

Now, let's dance.

Cheer On!

A year ago Mia joined a friend at a YMCA Cheer & Tumbling class. Immediately she was hooked and worked hard to improve her cartwheels and splits.

Watching her confidence, skills, and flexibility improve has been fun, but having her find her own thing is the best.

The video below is the performance at the Y's Healthy Kids Day.

Oreo Balls, Shaving Cream & Cartwheels for Easter

NOTE: This post is very image heavy, sorry if it is slow to load. I think the photos are worth it.

We may be developing a weird Easter habits. Last year it was photos at a Civil War Prison while this year we stopped by a old warehouse. But first Jenn & Mia made Oreo balls and colored eggs with shaving cream.

Easter morning started with baskets, and yes, even the dogs have a basket. Then it was church before we left for Alton. Of course I had to get some photos of the girls with our blooming pear tree in the background.

On our way to the grandparents' house, we stopped for more photos. Jenn even joined in.  

After the egg hunt at grandma's, the girls were so excited & hopped up on chocolate that they started flipping around the yard.

The more experienced crew, simply sat and watched. 

On the way home we still had the energy for one more stop & photo shoot.

Lunar Eclipse Composite

Last night I was foolish enough to leave my home at 12:30am and stay out photographing the lunar eclipse until almost 3am. Tonight I put a few images together to share what I saw in that time.
