Morgan VS The Pig

So every night I get the job of playing with Morgan and getting her ready for bed. Typically that consists of holding her and making faces and then changing her diaper and dressing her in her PJs so she can eat and go to bed. Well she has become more active and energetic so it takes more to make her "tired." So this is the result of one night with her pig (a gift from her Daddy) but it was too cute, so check it out :)

To see her Jumping Check out Liz's Blog.

Photos

One of my new hobbies is actually one of many things that I have always wanted to do but never did due to . . . , well, who knows. In high school I always wanted to take a Photography class but never did. I learned a little about it when I worked for City4 TV in Show Low (now mind you this station has grown and changed a lot in the last 8 years, in fact we were basically in a closet. But because of it I did get paid to go to my own graduation) during my Senior year, but most of the stuff was for video but applies to stills. The summer of 2007 I got to play with Alison's (my sister-in-law) camera and that sparked it. By Thanksgiving I had Liz convinced and we bought a new camera! :) It is a Canon Rebel XTI which is an entry level SLR. I won't go into the equipment more than that for now. But I love taking pictures and playing with the different settings. I hope to take some classes soon.

This picture I was playing around with depth of field at my parents while my dad was irrigating. At first I thought it was odd, but it gave the effect I was after. Then after I looked at with Liz and my sister Stephi I realized I actually liked it. I even water marked it :)

This Picture is from a Saturday trip on the light rail into downtown Phoenix. This is the water fountains at the Arizona Center (which is really cool, its like a small garden/park in the middle of several buildings). I actually had to use Photoshop to take out a leg of one of her brothers, can you tell?

Now this one I did not take (thus I did not watermark it) but we do own the copyright to it with our photographer Mark Loper who I met years before we got married when he did pictures for our family. He is awesome and a really great guy. He was a lot of help with our wedding because that is what he specializes in. Anyway he took the photo. I just pulled it into Photoshop and played with the colors and Liz wanted me to post it (I think she like to remember the day that the world revolved around her, which of course everyday since has:) she is so beautiful!)

Music

I added a lot more music (at the bottom of the page). You can scroll through it. These are just some of my favorites. Let me know what you think and if you have any good ones to add! Also let me know if I have any that have any inappropriate words or themes, some are from back in high school and I may have missed something in it. Thanks.
