Lil’ Sluggers, Round 2

The Blue Jays have taken the field again.

Dad and Mom - Easton is three. What cute pictures. Haines is in the big leagues now.
Love, Mom

Cayman is Two

Happy Birthday Cayman! Thanks for throwing the best Cinco de Mayo birthday party ever. We are all wondering if you still have any alligator cake left for us?

 

Sticky Bun Run

The sweetest race you’ll ever run: Grace Academy’s 2nd annual Sticky Bun Run. Run four miles, woof down four Sticky Buns somewhere in the middle, and try to finish with a smile. Major props to all the runners, especially the young ones, who did it in style. Thanks to all the volunteers who made this fund raiser possible, especially Wade and Jen Grimes!

Racers: feel free to use any of these web images for personal use. Full image gallery at the bottom.

MD - The pictures make it look like we missed a lot of fun. Eric, you have captured what is so great about a fun run that includes all ages. Sorry I missed the event, but the pictures have taken me back to the run.

Michael and Allison

It’s perfect spring weather in the High Country. I had a blast capturing Michael and Allison in Blowing Rock as they remembered their recent engagement at the Gideon Ridge Inn. Beautiful!

 

 

Dave - You know how to combine ambience and personalities to make attractive and interesting photos.

Well done!

Susu - I love the picture with the two geese. Since geese mate for life, it’s a great example of what God intended marriage to be.

Lil’ Sluggers

Introducing the Blue Jays. You should be seeing these guys make their Major League debut around 2032.  If you are ever feeling down about life, go find a t-ball game and soak up the goodness. They may have no idea how to hit the ball or where to run once they do hit it, but it sure is fun to watch the action unfold. This game was just getting started when lightning came and had us running for the cars. Look for a more extensive gallery coming in the future. Haines wants to give out a special shout out to his teammates Elliot and Will.

 

New River Gorgeous

Every spring some of my cousins get together for a weekend of camping and outdoor adventure. This year we chose the New River Gorge in Fayetteville, WV. Spanning the gorge almost 900ft over the New River, the bridge is a worthy attraction in it’s own right. Once a year, the bridge is legally open to BASE jumping.  Since we all forgot to bring our parachutes, we contented ourselves with a bit of rock climbing and rappelling between the rain showers. If you’re looking for a great campground, check out Chestnut Creek Campground and tell Brian hello for us. Just make sure to put out your fire. It better be cold.

 

Dad and Mom - We can see waht the wives missed.
What an exciting aventure.
Maybe next time ladies?

Stephen - Great photos, Eric. I’ll be placing an order soon.

Easter At Asbury

My parents met in Wilmore, KY. My dad was in seminary and my mom was a student across the street at Asbury University. It served as a perfect location to gather again and celebrate a resurrection together.

This is where my dad spent many a late night praying for God to bring him the perfect wife. We'd all agree that mom is a perfect answer to all those prayers.

John Wesley, my brother's namesake, points the way

Love that bump Mason!

Found: Lions den at the Red River Gorge

 

 

Dad and Mom - Beautiful photography!
Eric, you are the best photographer I know.

Opening Day At Keenland

Over Easter weekend we took in the classic Lexington experience: opening day at Keeneland.  Blazers, bow ties, and skimpy sundresses were in full effect, thanks in part to free passes for UK students. The real show was the raw beauty and power of the world’s finest thoroughbreds thundering around the track.

 

A Hike In The Woods

Haines takes a walk in the woods.

Bird Morning

This morning’s early light was beautiful, but fleeting. By the time I made it out the door with my coffee and camera, I missed the light show. No matter. Sloshing around the boggy fields in flip flops while watching the morning birds was sublime. Location: Goodnight Farm, Valle Crucis

 

 

 

Dad and Mom - Perfect timing! Natural background selection is inviting and captivating. Offers meditative experience.
