Nothing special here, just that I visited DylanR's flickr site and he says that his mother likes Snowmen.
Rachel_r, here is one of the snowmen I put on my house windows for this year.

Taken with a Nikon Coolpix. It felt funny pushing the button on the Nikon after using my Canon. My finger didn't want to do it.

Here's a shot from our Christmas tree:



And here's one from a recent shoot I did:



One of the professors at Texas A&M organizes a Christmas Present Drive every year for children who have been taken from their parents by Child Protective Services. They're publishing an article about it in a local magazine so I got to take some great shots of it.

Too cute! He is right...I do fancy snowmen. Thanks for visiting, I'm sure he appreciates it.

Wow, Shoeless! Did your neighbor leave any electricity for your house?

I'm designated photographer for our family gathering this year (in a family of photographers.) I have a HUGE family, so there should be lots of shots. I'll post soon.

Default Christmas Ornaments

Here are a few I have taken over the past few weeks while breaking our ornaments for the tree...

And this last one, I had originally as a color photo, but, I enjoyed playing with the picnik tool the other day, and went for a more "old time" look for this photo, as the box and ornaments within are quite dated.

Merry Christmas everyone!
