The Great Reno Balloon Race ~ 2011

My family and I, along with our good friends attended 

The Great Reno Balloon Races in Reno on Sunday 

September 11th.

What a wonderful event.  

The Dawn Patrol was an amazing sight.

The T-6 Formation Fly Over was during the National Anthem right before the 

Mass Ascension.

This fly over was even more meaningful since it was the 

10th anniversary of the Terrorist attacks of 9/11.

The Missing Man Formation was also performed 

in honor of the 10th anniversary of 9/11.

As soon as the planes disappeared into the horizon

a flock of Canadian Geese flew by also in the

Missing Man Formation.

What a chill this gave us!

God Bless America!

As the sun was coming up the balloons were lifting off.

Project 52 week 36 ~ Looking Down

Looking down at Buddy - because he always has so much to say!

Project 52 week 35 ~ Looking up

While enjoying the warm weather and Labor Day weekend with my 

family at the lake, I "looked up" and suddenly realized
"Autumn is right around the corner"!

The beautiful Nevada sky!

Project 52 ~ week 34 ~ Macro ~

A "JETS" M&M straight from New York!!
I don't have a macro lens so I tried putting two lenses together.
It was an old film I had and was much smaller than my digital lens,
 but the photo came out okay.

My NEW telephoto lens....

Welcome Baby Brooke

Baby Brooke was born on July 14th 2011 to my friends Cody, Amie and big brother Lucas.

I was thrilled to be able to spend some time with such a sweet, beautiful baby.  

At only 10 days old she was a perfect model!

I look forward to many more photo sessions with this beautiful baby girl.

Congratulations Cody, Amie and Lucas!

Welcome Baby Brooke!

He was awesome.

Frobeck

The second band to take stage for the Greenhouse Project benefit concert was Frobeck.  

A band from San Francisco that really rocks the house.  

If you have a chance to see them you will not be disappointed. 

They were fantastic!
