    A Quick Saturday Outing

    We took our silly puppy dog down to Petco this afternoon so he could play with some other dogs. I took the camera and got a few photos while Rawley played and the kids watched. On the way home we stopped and I got the kids an ice cream bar for being relatively well behaved.…

    Change Can Be Good

    This has been my office for almost 3 years now. Well, not this place specifically, but a pump room, electrical room, or something similar at various businesses around town. I’ve been working for Yamas Controls as a Building Automation Technician for a while now, but things are changing. I turned in my work van, keys,…

  • Ambrose Spring Music Festival 2014

    It wasn’t a fancy program, but the kids came at it with excitement and pride anyway. Really, they were just showing some of the things they had been learning in class about music, but I love that even very young, they get them used to speaking and performing in front of others.

    Loving The Spring Weather

    The clouds were scarce on Saturday. There wasn’t many things that we as a family HAD to do for a change. So we spent time with family and friends and just had an amazing day of relaxing and doing lots of random things. The kids played at the grandparents’ place and rode the 4-wheeler with…

    Stick Boy

    I seem to be taking more photos of our puppy lately. I have filled large SD cards to the brim with photos of my kids, but as they get older, I’m sharing a little less. It’s not that they are any less adorable. On the contrary. I’m becoming more and more aware that as they…

  • From High Above

    From High Above

    I love adventure. I jump at the opportunity to try something new and fun. When my friend offered me the opportunity to fly around town with him in a helicopter, I jumped on it. The helicopter is kept at a hanger at the Boise airport. The first few photos here are while he was in…

    She Enters The Sport Of Swimming

    She has been swimming for 3 or 4 years now. Until now though, it was for fun and safety. Now she is drawn into the SPORT of swimming. At her age and level, it’s still all about fun, not really competition, but I know how it starts. First she’ll win a few ribbons for participating,…

    A Classmate’s Birthday Party At The Farm

    Elizabeth was invited to a classmate’s birthday party at the Willows Edge Farm out in Kuna on Saturday. What a fun party idea. The girls got to ride a horse, pet the cows and sheep, and learn a little about the farm and the animals. They also did a little bit of face painting and…

    A Fun Birthday Photo Booth

    My beautiful little girl turned 7 this weekend. Holy smokes the time goes fast! As part of the party festivities, my wife and I planned a photo booth as part of the fun. My wife created all of the props and glued them to skewers and craft sticks. She also created all of the colorful…

Credit is always appreciated of course, but I’m ok either way. You’re also welcome to share the link as much as you’d like, but you’ll have to share the simple…

  • Saint Alphonsus in Boise

    Saint Alphonsus in Boise

    Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center is one of my controls customers. I don’t know if it is because I’ve been there a lot or because it’s just a striking building, but the Central Tower seems rather iconic to me. Here are a few random shots from during this week.
