Since it is Good Friday I thought I would write a happy post about my family. Last night Chad and I thought we would take advantage of the sunshine and take our fur-kid for a walk. Winters are really long here in Alberta and so when we have a sunny evening where the temperature is above zero it seems like a real treat. Even in April. The light was really nice last night and so I decided to haul out my camera to take some personal snaps. I think there’s an old saying about shoemakers’ children not having shoes…yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve taken photos of my own family.
It’s always nice to capture moments like this of your own family…human kids or fur-kids.
Whenever we go for walks, Chad and I hold hands or link arms and Jinx always walks between us. It’s rediculously cute. We are a happy little family and seeing him walk with us always makes me smile. It’s funny how he just makes himself part of the family. There’s no question that he knows he belongs with us.
It’s funny how much personality a little beast like Jinx can have. I could be having the worst day and I’ll look at him and he’ll always make me laugh. I mean, who can resist that little smile? He even smiles with his teeth (photo on the left)!
Then there’s my hubby. I love him. He puts up with all my crap and when I am being a crab he still continues to love me (which is amazing to me considering how grumpy I can get). I can’t get mad at him either, he can always diffuse my bad mood just by making me laugh. Sometimes I get mad because he has made me un-mad. I’m a woman…we’re funny creatures. This photo is funny to me because the sun flare looks like he has some bright idea going on in his head or something…big head = big ideas.
So, this weekend, spend time with your family. Take out your camera and just take some photos of everyone. Put them on Facebook. They don’t have to be perfect because one day you will look back and be really glad you have that memory to remind you of this particular time in your life.
Happy Easter
