Snow Day

Well, hello there! I bring you greetings from yet another snow day with the Parkers. Here's how we've been spending our day:

We've been lounging in our pjs, eating snacks, drinking coffee (two of us at least), and having school. A snow day doesn't stop the learning for these two! First they did math and then they learned about Rosa Parks to kick off Black History Month. After they colored their pictures they watched a short video on Youtube.

Why no picture of Evan? Well, his didn't come out so good! I just got a new camera and I have a lot to learn. Today has been a great day for me to play with my new toy and figure out how to use the darn thing! Here are some shots from the weekend:

I haven't even attempted to learn how to edit and enhance yet. I'm not even close to that road. These already look a ton better than my iphone pictures, that's for sure! Even though a lot of my shots come out looking like this:

I'm still having fun learning and I'll get it one day! Plus, I have some pretty adorable guys around here to inspire me. Hopefully I'll even blog more if I can get some amazing photos to share.
