Here is a budding peach tree in our backyard.

Can you believe that Mother’s Day is literally next week?!! Geeze…months do fly by because I have yet to get my mom anything yet. I’ve been thinking about things she needs or wants and have come up with a few things. Maybe a new cookware set (which is what my dad suggested), summer clothes, or even some kind of electronic.

I’m thinking maybe a Casio Digital Camera like this pink one shown in the photo off to the side. Why a digital camera for my mom? Well, just last week I bought myself a new pocket digital camera because I needed one small enough to fit in my purse so I could take pictures on the go. My mom really enjoyed the simplicity of it and wanted one of her own. Hence, why I think a digital camera may be a great gift for her this year.

Right now you can save $83 off the original price by buying it at 42Photo.com. That is awesome!! Plus, they even have accessories for the camera such as memory cards, camera bags, tripods and even cleaning kits.

My mom might need some of those as well which is great because you can get it all from one place for great prices. Check out 42photo.com yourself!!

April 28th, 2008Macro Monday - Colours


One of the toys I recently bought my nephew.

April 22nd, 2008Time to call it a night…

After a long day of many packages arriving in the mail, going shopping with my sisters, then having my photography night class, I think I’m ready to call it a day. What will I be doing tonight? Well…I got two new movies in the mail that I purchased recently. You can see them in the photo below. I’ll probably watch Juno tonight and than Nancy Drew sometime tomorrow.

April 21st, 2008Stroll by the lake…

One of my favourite things to do once the weather starts to warm up, is go down to the lake. In Hamilton, the park is called Confederation Park. The lake…well it’s Lake Ontario. I love strolling up and down by the lake side watching people pass by, birds fly, and the water slowly come up the sand. It’s really soothing and probably one of my favourite spots of peace and quiet.

A few days ago, my family ventured out for a nice stroll. Of course my nephew fell asleep so I couldn’t take any photos of him on the rocks, by the sand, etc. I did take some nice photos of just the environment and surrounding area. Even though the photos below depict the water to be nice and blue, it is heavily polluted and I wouldn’t even dream of swimming in that water.

April 14th, 2008Cuckoo…cuckoo…cuckoo…

I haven’t been too happy these past two days. A few times a day, which happen to be the times I need the web for important things, my wireless internet connection goes all cuckoo. It honestly drives me insane. It will have a signal one moment, then it loses it.

I know it’s not my internet service provider because the one that I’m with now is amazing. I know it’s not my router either because I got only the best. The last thing which I have a feeling that is contributing to my signal loses is the weather. I don’t know for sure, I’m just guessing since it’s been gloomy around here these past few days. Even as I sit here now, it’s catching the signal and then losing it. Meh…what can I do anyways as I know it’s only temporary.

Anyways, my nephew is having a blast over at my house. Every morning I go and say good morning to him and he laughs his head off and smiles. It’s the cutest thing EVER!! I was taking some photographs of him this afternoon and caught a few pictures where I swear he must have been saying these things. LMAO…Check out the photos below. Heehee…

April 8th, 2008Such A Beautiful Day!

Today was really unbelievable. It felt like summer was nearly here. It was 17 degrees out, which at this time of the year, is pretty amazing! So of course I went outside with my dog and soaked up as much of the sunlight that we could. Here are some shots I took of her today.
