G money on canvas

November 30, 2009

A couple of weeks ago we placed our first order with Simply Canvas, an online print-to-canvas retailer.  We ordered a photo of G Money bathing in grandma’s whiskey barrel up in Three Lakes from earlier this fall.  I’m incredibly happy with how our 20″ x 24″ gallery-wrapped stretched canvas turned out.  The people over at Simply Canvas were incredible to work with, and the quality of their product is top-notch.  If you’re a professional photographer and are looking for a canvas supplier, check them out:  www.simplycanvas.com.

our day at the waterpark

November 19, 2009

A week or two ago we were high bidders on a couple of water theme park tickets at our church’s silent auction.  We decided to put the tickets to use last weekend and took little G to Mount Olympus Water and Theme Park in Wisconsin Dells.  As expected, he had a great time splashing around and performing his patented “belly slide” in the kiddie area.  He wasn’t so sure about the adult water slides, however.  He didn’t cry, per se, but the expression on his face suggested, “what in the world are you doing to me with all this super-fast twisting and turning action.”  Here are some photos from the less scary moments of our day.

The weather was beautiful this past weekend in SE Wisconsin.  It was the kind of weather we seem to have been waiting for all fall.  We took the opportunity to take G out to Oakwood Park.  He had a blast climbing, running, sliding, and playing in the sandbox.  He had the most fun, though, watching all the other kids running around and getting yelled at by their mommies and daddies.
