REMISS!!

I have been completely remiss in my duties with this blog!

Today I was motivated...sometimes a rare sight given the normal day-to-day responsibilities and upkeep of a home, work, kids (almost always one of whom needs "mom" for SOMETHING) and their activities...and then the just simply "me" time.  That is the time when I *could* be updating the blog or working on pics...but frankly, sometimes I just don't have it in me.  SO...when I do...I try to take full advantage.  And today just happens to be one of those days!!  HIP HIP HOORAY!

The boys are growing up so fast and summer is flying by!  Both are doing well.
Ryan is becoming quite the "young man" at the ripe age of 8, and is developing quite the sassy sense of humor.
Evan is doing well on his diet (for seizure control).  He is still having seizures, but they are not nearly as serious/bad as they were before the diet change.  So, we continue to tweak and try to find a good balance.  He is an active and energetic 5 year old...keeping us on our toes, challenging us, and also bringing a lot of fun into the mix.
Both have been enjoying summer immensely!  Camping several times, lots of outside play time, pools, swimming, out on a boat, and a couple trips to the movie theatre and "Kids Club".  Many more fun times are planned...so summer fun continues.

Part of my motivation has stemmed form some photo processing and a photoshoot with my boys.  Some new pics have been posted in the album "Boys - July 2013".  I will also be going BACK and processing/uploading pics I've taken of other events such as Evan's birthday and Easter (and failed to post...ahhh...motivation...where were you then?!?!).

Vids, Vids and More Vids!

I have started to accumulate a pretty large chunk of videos since we purchased the GoPro.  So I finally pulled the trigger on a new video editing software (Cyberlink PowerDirector 11) in hopes of cranking out more videos and to utilize the horsepower my desktop computer provides.  So far I am happy with the way the software works and I am slowly figuring out new ways to speed up production etc.  Below you will find a few of my latest videos.
