Welcome

Welcome to my blog. Here I have tried to capture the adventures of our little family and the trials and tribulations of our never ending garden project(s). Take a look around and leave a comment if you wish. Thanks for stopping by. Jer.

New sun


New metal sun on our back wall on the deck. We were looking for something for a while and this guy was the perfect fit.

Frosty night


I love sitting out by the fire on these cool autumn nights. Perfect balance of warmth and chill. The wheat beer and Dave Matthews are a good mix too!


Listening to: "Cortez the Killer" - Dave Matthews Band

We are experiencing technical difficulties...


Wow, gotta love technology, first our laptop went down and then the camera bit the dust all in the same week that I am taking my first wedding photos - seriously thinking about changing my last name to Murphy! Anywho, it gave me the push I needed to get a new camera. I picked out the Nikon D60 (see pic), and this time I spent the extra to get the extra warranty protection.
