New host, New Domain!

I have decided to go for some 'real' hosting, and have registered www.pjbj.ca and www.peterchangphotography.com.

Cost me <$25 for the year, so We'll see..... Hopefully a bit more reliable than what was happening before.....

Steve & Ashley - Engagement Shoot.




Julie's cousin Ashley asked me to take pictures of their wedding. This is the engagement shoot we did today (well actually yesterday as it's 1:44am now). Hope you enjoy.

Click here for the whole gallery. (Edit: 11/27. Web server being flaky today, so I uploaded a few more pics to the blog.) After clicking on the link, you may use your mouse to click on the thumbnails on the Left to view the different pictures, or use your keyboard's Left and Right arrows to navigate backwards and forwards. Unfortunately, my HTML is not up to snuff, and I can't find away to stream the music in Firefox, so please use Internet Explorer to hear the background music, or tell me the right HTML tag to get that to work.

You may want to be on hi-speed to hear the music anyways.

Resistance is Futile

....you will be bathed.

Tonight, Brianna had a little 3yr old fit as we tried to get her ready for her bath and bed. After a evening of play at home with her brother and parents, it was clean up time. She had dutifully cleaned up the toys from the great room, but after that was done, she was starting to get more toys (play clothes) out of her dress-up suitcase.

She wasn't complying with the requests to put the princess clothes away, so after the 2nd or 3rd warning, I had to pry the clothes out of her hand which started the beginning of the tantrum....

I then quoted ST:TNG and said.... "Resistance is Futile,..... you will be bathed." in my best Borg voice. This increased the tantrum one more level. I picked her up & laid her down on the couch away from the toys where she continued to sob and Julie came out to see what was wrong with getting ready for her bath.

Julie offered to take her up to the bath in an effort to comfort her, but she still lay sobbing on the couch .......she then blurted out to her mommy: "....it doesn't madder, daddy said 'wesistance is futile'...... " It was classic.
