Borrowed Camera

Ever since Abby was a baby, Jennifer has always loved having the girls’ portraits taken by a professional photographer. Her favorite ones have been themed portraits, but since we’ve moved to Orlando it’s been hard to find a photographer that does those sorts of portraits. She did find one recently, but she’s almost an hour’s drive away. This gave Jennifer the idea of why not learn photography and start earning some money. To that end I borrowed a Cannon D20 digital SLR camera from work and she’s spent the last two days practicing and figuring out all the different settings on the camera.

Today Jennifer and the girls went over to a friend’s house to swim. Jennifer took the camera and started taking pictures of the girls, two of which are in this entry. I think they are pretty good.

I spent most of the day re-doing Frenchville. Hope you like the new look.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Since Jennifer just finished reading all the Harry Potter books, we’ve been watching all the movies. Tonight we watched the second of the Harry Potter movies, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. I haven’t really been enjoying the movies. Both the first and second moves don’t seem to have very good plots. Just a bunch of Harry Potter wandering around not knowing what is going on and slowly figuring it out while I’m falling asleep on the couch.

New Frenchville Look

I’ve updated Frenchville to a new look. I like it and think it’s a lot less busy. Most of the old features are still there. I removed the Google Ads, because they were getting very annoying. I’ve added “Movie Shelf” which is reviews of movies that we’ve seen. Hope you like the new design and, yes, that picture at the top is one of ours. It’s from our fourth of July visit to the Sanford fireworks show back in 2004.
