Veggie Tales Live!

Wednesday, March 21, 2012


Last evening, I had the pleasure of taking my children to their first concert! Veggie Tales Live! They absolutely love their Veggie Tales DVD's - so I knew this would be a thrill for them. I mean, seeing a live, giant, talking tomato and cucumber? Who wouldn't dance the aisles with excitement?  There were plenty of cute little kids doing that!



On the way to Veggie Tales Live, my son was a little nervous.  The thought of a real, I mean real tomato that would talk... was a little worrisome for my little guy.  He quickly concluded that "it is really people under there".  Smart kid.  He didn't attempt to dance in his seat or the aisle like most of the children who were there.  Yet he did have a wonderful time.





 The Veggie Tales characters sang and danced to many of our favorite Silly Songs with Larry.  This included my personal favorite, The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything.

A cute storyline went along with all of the silly songs and it flowed very nicely. I promise, you've never ever ever ever ever seen a show like Veggie Tales Live.

Pictures, Cameras and Kids

Friday, November 4, 2011

We've all tried to snap that perfect picture of our cherished little ones. A moment captured in time that confirms our children did have clean faces, smiled and generally looked as if they could behave themselves.

Over the years and hundreds of pictures, possibly a thousand or so, I have found that the most cherished pictures are those not posed, not perfect and quite random.

Some of my favorite pictures are from family trips and vacations.  I love forever capturing the fun that develops out of the kids excitement of visiting new places and traveling.

Standing still and posing for that perfect picture never seems to happen.  Instead we have photo albums filled with..

Images that capture the silliness... 


      
       
...and moments that reminded me to just enjoy life!




Taking great photos doubles the fun of a family vacation--you get to relive the memories every time you look at the photos. It can be even more fun if the kids were taking the photos. Then you get the added joy of seeing the vacation through their eyes.
