A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow.

Wordless Wednesday (almost): Trying to Get the Perfect Photo With Santa

"We've got a blinker!" --Comment by Santa photographer


As a blogger, I am constantly taking photos. It's proven that images lead to more page views. And I think that happens because photos just make blog posts more fun! Here's the back story of our shot with Santa. A re-take was required because apparently one of the kids was "a blinker". 


You had to be there to understand how funny this was. The photographer said the phrase with the same intensity of a operating room technician. He noticed the problem and it was not going to persist on his watch. So, the kids, unaware of which had committed the infraction, posed again. I am certain my daughter had no idea what the photographer was talking about, she just wanted to smile again and the baby was still trying to figure out why it was OK for him to sit on a stranger's lap this time...

Merry Christmas!!!
