Shopping Central Market

Saturday, as part of my birthday outing, we stopped at Central Market to get a few things. I couldn’t resist the opportunity to take some pictures as we walked through this mega-grocery store. And we got an unusual treat at the end of our shopping venture.

This one is maximizing the use of my 50 mm, f1.2 lens, which is great for portraits.

Ah yes, because it was my birthday, we had to get some ice cream!

Chocolate marshmallow. Of course, chocolate!

Birthday Self Portrait

Heidi took me out to lunch for my birthday, and we captured this self-portrait as we walked about.

Union’s Fountain

From the archives, September 2010. This is the fountain post that has everything, a fountain, a bell tower, a drenched little boy who fell into the fountain, what more needs to be said?

The Fountain

The following is of the fountain in the entrance of the apartment complex where I live. It’s not particularly a grand fountain. And the pump that keeps it going is rather loud. But it’s worthy of a few pictures.

Sprung Spring Part 2

I decided to take a walk with my camera last night, just to see what I could find. Yup! More flowers! Enjoy.

Biker Boy

March 2011, Joey is almost 4. I don’t think he really liked the tricycle because once he got it back up to the barn, he never rode it again.

Celebrating Four

Heidi and I went out to Bonefish, our favorite restaurant, last night to celebrate our 4th wedding anniversary. The LORD has blessed us with four wonderful years and we pray He blesses us with many years to come.

We ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp, which is an appetizer, the calamari, side salads and a couple of glasses of wine. We always have a hard time figuring out how so many can eat an appetizer, and then an entree. The appetizers are enough for us.

Frisco Municipal Library

I’ve wanted to try some of these shots for a while. This one was in my mind’s eye, and Andy complied and made it come to pass. My goal was to have him stand really still, so that he would be in focus, while anyone else would be a blur. It worked.

Our New (Used) Wheels

The LORD provided us with a “new” set of wheels. For us, the word “new” is flexible, and in this case, means “less than 10 years old.” Turns out that the man who provided these wheels for us, got the year of the car wrong. He said it was a 2011, which would mean the care would be less than 10 years old. It would be the first time in many years that I had a car less than 10 years old.

But it’s a 2009, making it 10 years old and counting. All we could was laugh.

We are still extremely thankful! For a 10 year old car, it’s extremely nice and has a lot of features. In fact, Joey was sitting in the front seat for the first time, looking at all the knobs, buttons and switches, and said, “hey Dad, you have heated seats!”

Heidi and I have been really grateful for that little discovery with all the cold weather we have had lately.
