beloved, big girl pants, Canadian Museum for Human Rights, dove, flowers, hope, hopefulness, orchid, photos, sky, special, threatening, widow

always amazes me how some of the best photos happen…

I’ve been trying to get a great shot of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights for ages… when I am near it, I am either driving, in a car and going too quickly, or else something just isn’t right when I am walking in the area…

I have taken many photos of the building but nothing particularly good…

last night I was the passenger in a car as we went past and took a number of shots… cars and people kept interrupting a good shot, but when I checked my photos I found this great one…

I think the threatening sky had something to do with it…

the lighting in the Museum helped too…

earlier I had taken a very quick shot of an orchid that I walked past…

it came out nicely as well…

I often see a dove in close ups of orchids and they always remind me of hopefulness and my beloved…

kind of fun to have good shots of CMHR and an orchid taken so close together… both of which are such signs of hope…

a memorable photo day;-)…

fingers…

big girl pants, Canadian Museum for Human Rights, cold, fingers, friend, gloves, lunch, membership, purple, widow

a few days ago I walked over to TheForks to meet a dear friend for lunch…

on my way I got this shot of the CanadianMuseum for Human Rights… it is such a beautiful building… just yesterday I renewed my membership…

it was a lovely day but a bit cold… I was wearing these amazing purple leather gloves which a friend gave me a few years ago… they look great but are not tremendously warm… so eventually I pulled the sleeves down over my fingers to keep them toasty…

looked just like my eight year old grandson, lol…

light…

light… it brightens my life…

this morning I spotted the sun shining into one of our rooms at the office…

busy throughout the day and then tonight I got this shot of the light in the Canadian Museum for Human Rights…

light in the early morning and light late in the day… 

all of that makes me so happy…

giggles…

big girl pants, breakfast, Canadian Museum for Human Rights, Embrace, Fitbit, giggles, the "A", XOXO

up early and walked over to the “A” for breakfast…

here are the kids as they waited for their breakfast…

  
and how they passed the time… made me giggle…

  
cute eh…

I walked home… and my daughter took this shot of me…  

  

was lovely out and I enjoyed the walk… the giggle was that I forgot to put my Fitbit on in the morning, so none of the steps were recorded… 
  
been looking at this tree down the street for the better part of a week because the snow on it was very pretty…

we spent a few hours at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights where we had some fun in the XOXO exhibit…

  
here my daughter is making a love letter memento to give to her husband… hard work to produce it, lol…

  
I got to hug the Embrace which said ahhhh when it was hugged:-)…

  
while she was waiting for me she spotted these very pretty cream and sugar containers, but by the time we got back there, someone had purchased them…

lots of fun and giggles…
