My brother's wedding

Wow. Have I really been gone a month? Looks like I've been traveling through lala land and the Nation of Twiterpation a bit too long. Well, I'm actually still there, but I wanted to get a quick picture up here from my dear brother's wedding in Oregon last month. My long-term readers may remember that I went to TWO weddings last year for my brothers. This makes three. And yes, I have no more brothers. So three sisters-in-law is all I get. Anyway, I'm working on a proper slideshow of all pics, but here's my favorite.




Enjoy!

My Excuse

Dear Interwebs,

Please excuse Erica from posting on her blog today. She had such an amazing birthday yesterday (the big 30!) that she is still loopy in the brain. She also cannot post today since she is expected at lunch soon with her gal pal and then later tonight must meet the person responsible for her loopiness for Movies in the Hollywood Cemetery. She promises to come back to the blog soon when her brain gets out of the clouds.

Until she returns, please also wish her sweet twin sister an equally Happy Birthday!

January Photograph Techniques

So, since it's January, I feel it's finally time to show a few pictures from this past Thanksgiving. Lest you think I'm dredging up shots from two whole months ago 'cause I have done absolutely nothing since then, think not! Just refer to yesterday's post about being a bad blogger and not taking pictures.

Anyhoo... I was spending five whole minutes NOT watching my man Jack by browsing my iPhoto library when I found these. There we were. My whole family (including two new sisters-in-law and a future sister-in-law) watching my Dad take his new-to-him sailboat out for it's inaugural outing. And unlike my normal self, I had my Canon ready to snap up all manor of picturesque scenery (Ha! Did you just notice that incredibly clever pun?!).

(IMHO, the pictures look much lovelier blown up. Click on them to see for yourself).

Family Pics

It's been too long since I've posted, but I still don't have time this morning for a *real* post, so I'll try to placate my many many visitors with one of my fav family snapshots. That's me, my brother and twin sister from probably 1980 or so. Enjoy!

Labor Day Weekend

We didn't do that much over this very relaxing weekend, but I did manage it capture most of it on my camera. So, enjoy this short slideshow of Dad realizing his lifelong dream. View slideshow

The Best Man

When I first shot this, I almost deleted it 'cause I meant to capture his face, but now I really like it. What's he looking at?

The Money Shot

My youngest brother just got married on July 2nd and I don't think I've ever seen him as happy as in this photo (right after their first kiss). I'm so excited to have Em has my newest sister-in-law and I know these two will make each other so very happy.
