Today I made food for a 'bring and share' lunch ...

But if Daisy keeps taking pictures like this, I will soon be out of a job ... or a blog? You can see more of me though ...



This is the girls third session with their birthday camera, and I'm pretty impressed. Of course there are the ones with the thumb over the lens, and the headless people, but photos like this one too, where the subject fills the frame beautifully!



And this is a lovely portrait of 6 year old Matty by her sweet twin :-)

and just now, like the rest of us, she is enjoying some snow with a small friend!



Thank you Lettie and Emily, for sharing your photos, it's good to see you again! keep in touch! And Happy Christmas XXX

looking forwards and backwards ....

this week i spent a lot of time at my computer, in dribs and drabs, deleting and making back up dics of pictures ... it suddently hit me that i could really loose my photographs, all of us knows someone who has lost a HDD full of emails pictures and memories ... and i didnt wan that to be me.

when i finally got down to it i found over 2000 images from daisy' and matty's birth to the last upload, and i took these on just over 4 discs to a small local company in town ... i could have used there on line service, but just inagine how may hours it would have taken to upload them, my images are around 1gig ...

have you ever lost things on your pc?
i used to teach scrapbooking, and might go back to it again, and always stressed gettign those pictures printed. i met a woman and told her about my classes - she has four children - and said, ah, it was ok thanks, she had them all on her computer ... a few years later i met her again in one of my classes - she lots four years of images and gave us all food for thought!

so ive done it
its a HUGE box full
and its going to take me forever to get those into albums - but it will be done !

oh, and in that photo above, daisy is on the left, and matty on the right
