Moments of Pause

December 24, 2014
Share this post

Saturday night was our first Christmas celebration with family, so naturally we all played with our new toys Sunday morning before church. Nick with his ham radio, Wyatt with his blocks and kitchen and I with my new f2 camera lens.

I’ve decided to start a series called “moments of pause” — in part, an extension of a few unexpected joys in our own backyard posts — but also because I’m really trying hard to focus on all the good that sits around me, instead of all the mess, unfinished and failed attempts.  It’s all about attitude anyway, right? I mean, how on Earth can you make a block covered family room floor look beautiful?  Well, apparently you can with the right framing, focus and breathing techniques.  All wonderful photography techniques — but perhaps even more wonderful life techniques. ;)

I hope you’ll enjoy these moments of pause in my life, and find some moments of your own on this joyful Christmas Eve.

Merry Christmas!IMG_1792 IMG_1796 IMG_1801 IMG_1810 IMG_1816 IMG_1817 IMG_1818 IMG_1819 IMG_1825 IMG_1826 IMG_1891 IMG_1892 IMG_1893 IMG_1894 IMG_1895 IMG_1896 IMG_1844 IMG_1855 IMG_1864
