April's Beginning

April started off cool, with some beautiful days.  I just had to take the photo below; our driveway was getting so crowded!  We have our Suburban and our BMW, Danny has his VW and Jake his Nissan, plus Thomas bought a BMW.  I think that last car there is my parents'.  Either way, it was a fun photo!

Cool spring days means toasty grilled cheese and homemade tomato soup...

It also means Dad coming over and us working on finishing his crossword puzzles together.  These have become my cherished Dad-daughter times, and my treasured memories.

Then it turned warm!  One of the rare times our old BMW was running, I got to drive it to church.  We put the sun roof open, plus our windows--my driving name then becomes Wind in Her Hair.  Yep!

Feels like summer, but welcome to April!!

Dad and Mom

November 3.

Next, it was Dad's and Mom's turn for portraits.  They were willing to go on the two-mile walk to find some good portrait locations, so away we walked.

This first photo is their favorite, and will make an appearance on their Christmas cards.

Of course I took some photos of whatever happened to catch my eye as we walked.

It was still very colorful along Loop 4.

I put my long lens on and captured a few more images.

The sun shining through yellow leaves.

It was a good day.
