13/52 a portrait a week



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

Jackson: As seen in this post already, my boy is part fish, jumping into the frigid lake "just because".
Lily: Just like her Dad, she's very quick witted and this week she has been exceptionally entertaining.

#SAMESPOT MARCH

I just can't seem to get the exact same spot but really this angle is my favourite. I will try harder next month! March has been full of all sorts of weather, often on the same day. While there hasn't been any more snow, it is still cold enough to have to lite the woodstove every night. Typical of Powell River, there has been LOADS of rain but honestly I feel like we've had lots of sunshine mixed in there too. As you can see, the branches are now sporting some leaves. Things are only going to get better. And seriously...how big is Jackson looking?!?!? Slow it down my boy. Please.

Again, joining in with Brandy over at Heart & Habit.

STILLS: SUNDAY AT INLAND LAKE WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS



Spring has arrived and we couldn't be happier about it. This weekend we had our first gathering of the season at Inland complete with family, friends, fire and tons of food. I think we brought enough to feed an army. SO great to be outside and feel the sun on your face. My crazy boy even jumped in the lake...and quickly got back out and stood by the fire shivering. It was the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon and I'm super excited knowing this was just the beginning!

I'm happy to join in once again with Emily and others over at her lovely blog The Beetle Shack.

Jackson: so glad you turned to see what I was up to while out on the deck taking photos of the amazing sunset (even if it shows our filthy windows)

Lily: teaching her class

#SAMESPOT FEBRUARY


This month bits of snow litter the sides of the road to Gibsons Beach. The white stuff came and went quickly as it always does here in PR. Unfortunately that meant no opportunity to get a photo of the kids with the snow like the one below I took on the way into work one day without them. I already look forward to taking a photo for March which will surely include some buds on those bare branches. Linking up again with Heart+Habit #SAMESPOTCALENDAR.
