Travis' Dragonflies

These images were captured with a macro lens, a whole lot of patience, and an understanding of the idiosyncrasies of the life of a dragonfly.

Estes Park in July

Can't get enough of the beautiful outdoors!

Kira's first (and potentially last) float trip

We headed up to Wyoming to do a little fly fishing. Actually Travis did a little fishing and Kira did a lot of casting and...well, reeling in nothing but twigs. However, the scenery was fantastic! The day started out beautiful and gradually got a little warmer close on to noon. Then around 2:00 out of nowhere came a rather violent, angry storm that lasted about 15 solid minutes...and me (Kira) without a jacket. I think my umbrella was the only thing that saved me from having a total freak-out moment. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?

20 Week Ultrasound

It's a girl! Besides finding out that she's a she, it was great to see how well she is developing--everything looks healthy! We were amazed to see all ten fingers, all ten toes and even the four ventricles of the heart. At 20 weeks, she already has fingerprints and tastebuds, too!
