Official wedding dogwalkers

Here are a couple of pics from the boys duties as the dogwalkers at cousin Jacob's wedding today. They're not the best photos, but I have to say, they look quite handsome.

Gizmo and the boys.

Road Trip to California

I recently returned from a week long trip to California. I was helping one of my best friends on her big move out to San Diego. I'd always wanted to make a cross-country road trip and this was just the opportunity. We took 3 1/2 days to get out there with stops in Kansas City, Denver, and Zion National Park. I stayed a few days in San Diego and then hopped up to San Francisco to catch up with some college friends.

Sunrise over the Rockies.

Oh, hey there, crazy slanted rocks.

Pulled off at a "View Area" and we sure got quite a view.

Zion National Park...

My buddy, Melissa, and me.

The Virgin River flows through the Zion canyon.

We went on the Emerald Pools hike, this was just the first waterfall we saw.

Butterfly House

Maggie inspired me to try a little nature photography of my own at the Butterfly House. I like Maggie's more, but I thought I would share anyway.

Tulip Time

A friend and I went to the Missouri Botanical Gardens yesterday and stumbled into Easter egg hunt day. It was great to see so many people out enjoying the great weather. All the great weather means an early bloom for many of the flowers including the gorgeous tulips.

I may not have a fancy camera but I make up for it in volume.

Early spring in the Lou

I am adding a few pictures of the boys as we have been enjoying the nice March weather here in St. Louis. There are a couple from St. Paddy's in Dogtown, as well as a couple trips to parks around town.

I have also been enjoying my new camera quite a bit. I wish I had more time to practice with it.




























- I hope you enjoy the pictures
