Weekly Winners XXV
All photographs taken on our trip “home” to Buffalo. We had a great stay. It was short, sweet, and just right. Everything was great, other than the weather. It is Buffalo, though. We got to see everyone that means something to us, with a few exceptions (I missed seeing a few “aunts” at church).
We are now home and everyone is safe and accounted for!

Looks like a great visit.

Great set!

Those were some of my favorite pictures of yours. I loved the table toast and throughout the look of joy on the kids’ faces is captured well. What a fun trip. Thanks for sharing.

They were a “Fast Dye Job” because they were done in 20 minutes.. LOL My mom had the eggs waiting for the kids, and while we were waiting for the pizza they dyed them with her.
May 4th, 2008 at 10:42 pm
I must say, I love your photography! *gush*
Your eggs looked like marble - very shiny and nicely colored!
Thanks for visiting my place!
