Big toys like that drive me crazy (as the homekeeper)! A few years ago, one of my boys won a giant (like 5 ft. tall) blow-up dinosaur as a door prize at a Cub Scout Blue & Gold banquet. Why couldn't he win the store gift card instead of the blow-up dinosaur, I kept thinking to myself (along with some other unpleasant, fighting aggravation sort of things)? I'd been trying to clean out the junk in the house for months!
But two months later, I embraced the blow-up dinosaur when I glanced out the family room window and saw my second son having a cage wrestling match with the dino on the trampoline. I'm so glad I got video of that. He had no idea we were watching either.
I am an evangelical Christian. I have two daughters whom I homeschool: Bella (15), and Daisy (8), and three older children: Giles (21), a college graduate, Felix (19), a college junior, and Clara (17), a college freshman. I'm 42 years old and happily married to my Dear Composer. We live in a 1920's school converted into a home, outside of town. And God is good.
Feel free to Pin my photos, but please link back to the page you found them on.
Photography
Photography is an important part of life at my house. Photos that appear here are taken by Giles, by the Composer, and by me. Giles is a real, paid photographer, and he uses a Sony Alpha. Most of the photography prior to September 2008 is his. Since then I have done most of the shooting and I use a Konica Minolta. Additionally, the Composer offers me nice shots on occasion, often from his little Canon point and shoot. I've given up trying to note who's done what. Thanks for your interest!

Ha. We have his twin. Huge guy, my daycare kids love him, as he is their size.
