Lately summer has seemed too long. The kids are fighting more than ever. It's hot. We are doing the same old, same old and it's gotten a tad boring. So I decided to shake something up.
I grabbed my camera and told the kids we were going for a walk. Normally a request for a walk is met with grumbling but I told them we were going to take pictures of the cool things we find. If there was something they liked, we could take a picture. That seemed to perk things up a bit.
I love our neighborhood, cozy bungalows and tree lined streets with a mix of new and interesting businesses. When we first moved here we had the bungalows and trees but there were no businesses to speak of. If we wanted dinner, coffee or to do a little shopping, we had to drive somewhere. Thanks to the dedication of local residents and the city, our little corner of the world has gotten a lot cooler. It's now a happening place to be. I just love it.

Perhaps the only way to get a picture of them together.
My favorite coffee house.
Always mugging for the camera.
Handmade chocolate? Yes please.
A book for every age.
The only way I can get a picture of her.
Ooh! Mom can you take a picture of the dead bug?
