"A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2014."


lucca: my little flawless beauty and the freckles that remind me she is mine.
jackson: eyes constantly on sister, watching her every move in the bird's nest next to him.

I'm excited to take part in the 52 project, capturing a portrait of my children, once a week, every week, for 52 weeks.   I already take a million photos of my kids, but usually with my iPhone.  This photography project will force me to pull out my "good camera" (the real one) at least once a week and document the weekly changes as these beauties grow up right in front of us.  What a treasure these will be when the year is through.  There will be 104 portraits, telling the story of Lucca and Jackson's year in 2014.

Sunday Funday at Pt Reyes

There are good days, and there are great days.  Today was great. So, so great.  We went to Pt Reyes National Seashore in hopes of spotting Gray Whales migrating south for winter.  And boy did we spot them!  Very close to shore, so close we could hear the sound of the water shooting out of their blowholes.  Whales are so rad.  It was such a neat experience with the kids.

And the scenery...ohhh the scenery.  This place is so often covered with thick fog, so to see it on such a gorgeous, perfectly clear day was amazing!!  

And now the weekend is somehow over already.  Excuse me while I go cry into my pillow.

Car Conversation

"If I had a dog, I would name her Elizabeth. Or Jewel. And she would be white & fluffy."  --Lucca, 4

"My dog would be SuperWhy and I would paint red stripes on it."  --Jackson, 2

My love for these two (and their car conversations) is endless.
