Wings and wonder.....!!

Well can you believe it, the build up, the angst (well, not much angst really!) and ziiiip it's over for another year!  With seven great (literally and figuratively) nieces and nephews ranging in age from four years to four weeks old it's been a delightful Christmas in our extended family. I couldn't resist just one 'opening pressies' shot before getting back to business tomorrow.  I know that it's a troubled world out there but I sincerely hope that you had the best Christmas that circumstances allowed.....

  5. Dressing up as a fairy with tulle, jewels, and magic wings was no doubt the icing on the cake for this little one. Glad you survived Christmas. Onward to a new year!

  25. I sneak pictures of wedding parties whenever I have the chance. Nothing wrong with it - they are out in public and if you use a telephoto lens you won't be obtrusive.
