Today was a much needed respite from yesterday’s visit to Casa de Luz. (Click through to see images) We went out with the team from Alabama that are here for baseball and that my son has been playing with and from the sounds of it, has been adopted as the team mascot since he’s older… Read More
You Have a Permit for Those Guns, Spidey?
I love these little rascals! Nothing more really needs to be said. It’s Halloween and they had a great time – I love how the older ones were showing the ropes to spider-man, showing him how to maximize his trick or treating. Hope you all had a great night as well!
Day 219 – First Scrimmage of New Year
Today was a fun day of baseball. My son’s baseball team had their first scrimmage of the new year. While baseball season for them is still several months away, it was nice to watch him pitch and play second base.
Day 156 -Former Dodger Great!
As we are gearing up for All-Star season, our coach has recruited a couple of great players to help the team. Junior Brignac, former pro from Atlanta Braves minor league squad and Tim Leary, former Dodger great who was part of the 1988 World Series winning team. In that year, he had 17 wins, a… Read More
Day 152 – Glamping!
I can’t wait to take my boys camping and since it’s not quite summer, I thought I would take a trial run! Set up the tent in the living room and my little one hopped in was so excited! Grabbed Larry the Cucumber and watched a little Daniel Tiger. Now we are watching the Red… Read More
Day 136 – HBD!
Friday night was prom for my oldest daughter, and today, it’s my oldest boy turning 15. We had a great day, took him to the batting cages and swung the bat for quite some time. I used to hold things back when he was younger, but he’s grown so much that there’s no holding back… Read More
Day 102 – Tree
Last night was a long night, fell asleep at 8PM, woke up at 10PM, back to bed, then up at 2AM, came downstairs, then fell back asleep around 4AM and got up at 6AM and started getting some work done. Went to see my son’s baseball game in the valley this afternoon and as the… Read More
Day 63 – Night Game
Another great night for Seawolves baseball! Pacifica Christian wins 20-7! Saturday through Monday it sounds like the “Pineapple Express” will be moving through California with feet, not inches, of snow hitting the Sierras (which we need desperately), and Los Angeles should be getting upwards of 2-3 inches. But until then, let’s enjoy some baseball! Shot… Read More
Day 54 – Baseball Season!
Baseball season is finally upon us. It’s hard to believe that Alex is now in high school and no longer is eligible for little league until high school is over. Once over, he will slide to Pony just in time for playoffs and All Stars. In the meantime, today was his first ever foray into high… Read More
Day 53 – North Venice
I went to go watch my son practice for his high school baseball team. This is his first year playing at this level. Generally, I tend to take action shots or something of that effect to practice, or catch a great swing or a catch. However, the entrance to the field had the most vivid,… Read More
Day 52 – Chillin’ Poolside
The kids got back from a church retreat this weekend up in the mountains and had a blast. Between devotional time, tubing, and building community, they really enjoyed themselves. Thanks to Demetrius, Estella, the Hornak’s, and everyone else who volunteered to make it a successful weekend! Upon our return, it was my niece’s birthday so… Read More
Day 46 – Alex n James
Today I tried to work with OCF (Off Camera Flash). Unfortunately, it was mid-day and I didn’t use quite enough flash power to ‘overpower the sun’ efficiently, so I moved on over to capture my two favorite young men hanging out in the tree! Shot with Canon 5DmkIII, 50mm, f/2.8, 1/250″, ISO 100
Day 8 – High School Basketball
Today was a great day. Work was very busy, I’m grateful for employment and for the flexibility I have in my schedule to spend time with my kids. Today, I worked from home and my 2 year crawled all over me, laughing, giggling, and climbing. Around nap time for him, I headed out to pick… Read More
