 Wishing you all a fun and safe Halloween! I still <3 Oingo Boingo. I can’t have Halloween without listening to them!I have to hit the sewing machine and finish up some costumes. 

on my last name.

Because I’ve learned in my 12 years of being a Gunnell, that in some language it translates to “takes pictures of birds.”
At least I haven’t gone completely over the edge. My sanity thrives on not actually knowing what bird this is. I leave that up to my husband, Father-in-Law, and Brothers-in-Law.

Like millions of others, I’ll never forget that morning.Today is Patriot Day.I’d like to share with you a song by my favorite band, Live. The story goes that it’s release was pushed back an album and came out with erie timing. There is a video of this shot with footage of Ed at the site […]

I love this little fish bowl. We bought these delightful glass sea adventure several years ago at The Block. I’m guessing these are about 8 years old - we’re both having a bad time of remembering when exactly we bought them. You know, doing the parent thing where you try to remember which kids you […]

I do love a yummy bowl of Cream of Wheat. Even during our crazy heat spike, it’s still yummy in the morning when you need a little something for a sore throat. Putting it in a cute yellow bowl helps, too.
These past few weeks I’ve been busy with the boys in school - […]

Unfortunately the other little boy around here can’t join […]

We finally took Sammy out for his first “hike” this past Saturday.
I put it in quotes because we didn’t actually find the hike we were looking for, so we stopped, parked, and hiked down a dirt road for about a mile.
One of my favorite things to take pictures of during our hikes is what […]

This weekend we took Sammy on his first “trail hike”. The quotes are necessary because we didn’t actually make it to the trail, more on that later, but we did end up taking a nice walk down a dirt road.
I always like to photograph some of the flowers we pass, just to practice shooting up […]
