This is why I take pictures and scrapbook






It may not be the best pictures but it doesn't matter, it's these two guys and what they mean to each other and to me. This is why my camera is never far from my side and because I'm learning more this year about telling the story and capturing the moment when I can. I know some people who think it's crazy others wish they had the passion I do for this picture taking "thing" as I'm told. This is what makes me happy and so grateful for this "hobby" it's about preserving their memories and childhood so that they will remember so much more when they are older and can share this with their friends, spouses, children, whoever they want to. I can't express enough how much I love what I do and believe 100% in scrapbooking of any kind and how great it is. So here is my story for today....

It's 8:00 a.m. about 17degrees and Rich is off work to spend the day with his mom & brother who will be arriving shortly. Sam is awake and sees that his dad is home and not at work so of course he says dad let's go outside and make big snowballs and a snow wall. My poor husband showered, dressed not really wanting to go outside says "sure son, let's go" so in his pj's and snow gear my son runs outside with dad following. They build pretty fast, the snow is perfect for this kind of packing. The snow walls are done and Sam is soooo happy and loves to be with his daddy. My husband bless his heart rarely says no to playing with Sam, even when he's tired, hurt, busy, whatever he makes the time. This isn't the first time Sam has gotten him outdoors in the morning and I know it won't be the last. So this is my story today I want Sam to know how much his dad loved him and wanted to make him happy so hopefully Sam will be a great guy and a great dad one day too. It's moments like these that makes me happy that we had one more child, a boy, a buddy, a dude someone for my husband to have keep him feeling young some days, haha. Thanks for reading.....
