Yuck, Green Beans!

I didn't take too many photos during Thanksgiving. I was busy eating all the delicious food (in addition to the traditional turkey, mashed potatoes, and corn, we had LOBSTER and CRAB! MMMMM!)

But this shot here just gets my shoulders goin'! Favorite picture of the night!



It's a little late, but I hope you all had wonderful Thanksgivings! Any non-traditional dinners??

Pumpkin Picking at the Pumpkin Patch!

This Saturday, my family and I went to go pick pumpkins to carve for Halloween. It was the perfect chilly fall day. And that's something I love about taking pictures in the fall--the photos come out so much crisper, just like the air. I'm not sure how that works out, but I love it!

Of course, I chased my nephew around with the camera, but he didn't seem to mind.

Perfect Day for an Outdoor Stroll

Actually, it was a VERY humid day. My guess would be 100% humidity. Goodness. In northeastern US? Probably, but it's been a while since I've had summers here.

My mom and I took Cason for a wagon ride one afternoon, and he LOVED it! He didn't mind the humidity at all. :) This is how happy he was:



Or he could have been thirsty and hyperbolizing his parched state. Anyway, I thought this photo was super duper cute and I wanted to share our happy day with you.

I also made a wallpaper from a photo from that day. Nothing major, but it serves as a good reminder when I close all my windows, about to get off the computer:



(If by chance you want this wallpaper, or just a blank version of this wallpaper, let me know and I can give you the full size!)

Happy Thursday!

My family and I have all been pretty under the weather lately...figuratively and literally. We all got sick with a combination of stomach viruses, colds, ear infections, and pink eyes. All of that while we were snowed in. Thankfully we didn't need any emergency visits to the hospital (for the most part...). Anyway, being sick, I haven't been feeling up to going out to take pictures in the snow, let alone play in it! Sad.

Well, this photo has nothing to do with the above jumble of text. It just makes me happy. :) I hope it makes you happy too!

What I also love about this photo is that there is such an array of photo caption possibilities. What would you have it say?

Sorry!

So it's been a little while since I've blogged...sorry about that! To try and make up for it, here are some old(er) photos that I haven't put up anywhere. :) Please enjoy!

This is my grandpa, my dad's dad, Cason's GREAT grandpa! I love my Yeye(grandpa in Cantonese)'s smile in this photo.

He used to love this chair--now he won't sit in it for more than 5 minutes!

And he's also outgrown his cute little shoes we put on him just about everyday. :(


Can you tell I love my nephew? :)

Cason and Fall Leaves

So if you've looked around www.thirteeneightphotography.com, you've seen the baby in the "little ones" section of photos. Well, that adorable little cutie patootie is my nephew! And I certainly do take lots and lots of pictures of him. This weekend, I had another opportunity to take photos...in the leaves! A cute little face and beautiful fall colors to surround him with! Here are just a select few from that session!



The picture that I took after this one (not shown here) is his daddy pushing those leaves away from his mouth. At this age, he puts everything in his mouth!



We also put him in his cute little Halloween monkey outfit, but he started to get grumpy. :(
