I need a bit of relaxing time after quite a photography marathon for me this month. My body was a bit sore. Today was such a gorgeous day. The weather was terrific. The sun was out. The sky was clear and blue. Since we don’t have that many good day here in the northwest, I took advantage of it. Playing with my kids at the park. After that, I felt a bit rejuvenated and recharged.

Here are some of the pictures of my favorites subjects. Enjoy!

We came to celebrate Rachel’s birthday a couple weeks ago. She’s about 1/2 year younger than our third child. But, she’s almost as big as ours.

Happy first birthday, Rachel! Enjoy your toddler year.

Here are a few of the pictures that I took that day. Enjoy!

This weekend’s weather was really strange. Yesterday, it started with tiny hail, continued with rain, then sun break. I thought that it’s going to be a good day after the sun came out. It turned out, it’s only the first of the cycle. Through out the day, it’s like that and snow came into the mix once in a while.

Then this morning as I woke up, I saw that it started to snow again, quite heavy. So, I captured a few shots of the snow.

Last Sunday after church, we went to Skagit Valley again. The sky was a bit gloomy by the time we left church. KOMO forecasted that it’s going to rain. Still, we decided to go.

By the time we got there, it started to drizzle a bit. I was a bit disappointed. We drove around for a while trying to find any tulip. It’s pretty discouraging for the first ten minutes. We didn’t find any tulip on the main tulip route road. But then, we saw a field full of tulip. They’re not fully bloomed yet. I thought it’s better than nothing. So, we went out to take some quick pictures.

After that, we decided to find to Tulip town. After paying the entrance fee, I took two of my kids around the field and started to take pictures there. Lots of tulip at the Tulip town. They bloomed already and quite big and in many different colors. I loved it there.

Here are some of the pictures I took. Enjoy!

Last week was spring break week for my son. The weather was so good, it was hot. So, we decided to go to the Willows Run golf course to play the miniature golf. It was very fun. We encounter a small snake on the path way. Eeewww.. we’re scared for a moment.

Here are some of the pictures. Enjoy!

Let’s see. Where should I start?
What a weekend with two photo sessions, plus a day at Pacific Science Center at downtown Seattle with my family and a recipient of random act of kindness from an unknown person. I feel so blessed. Thank you LORD.

I loved the Dancing With The Star show tonight. The dances were excellent from the start. Kristi, Shannon, Marlee and Jason were really awesome. My favorite dance of the night was Shannon’s. It was really elegant. I hope these four would go all the way to the end.

Last week, I went to Skagit Valley with my family. I was hoping to find some tulips there. Too bad there was none to be found. The weather has not been kind over here in the Northwest. I am not sure when the tulip will come out. But, I did find some Daffodil flowers there. They’re my consolation flowers. Beautiful view.

Happy belated Easter Day everyone. It has been a very busy week for me last week and I am a bit behind in my photo processing and blogging. Please check back tomorrow for new pictures.

Yay. Dancing with the star is back. Mario can dance. He’s super good. IMO, better than Helio, last season’s champion. Christian and Jason are alright. I doubt that they can challenge Mario though. The women haven’t dance yet, but judging from their names, it seems like there’re more skills on the women side. My prediction: no three-peat for Julianne.

This past week, my wife made very delicious food again. Yummy and tasty.. mmm.. delicioso
Soto beef Jakarta and deep fried honey salmon.
