Happy Saturday.  Today is my big shoot for the family reunion.  I was configuring photography equipment and the website most of the day yesterday and I think I’m ready.  Little bit of stress but this is what I want to do so I will not forget to enjoy the experience.

Ben had to work yesterday evening so Angie, Joshua, and Gabriella came over for dinner.  She was in a great mood and was smiling for Angie so I grabbed some shots of her.  Josh was busy playing all over the house so I could only get him to stand still long enough for a couple of shots and the ones I got of him were not good.  So this is an all Gabby post today.

Yesterday we had an appointment with the audiologist about my hearing aids.  I had some issues with them and this was my one week check up.  When asked how I liked them I told her that on a scale of 1 – 10 they were at about a 7.  Then I detailed the three issues I had with them and she was able to make the necessary adjustments to alleviate the problems of all three.  What blew me away was when she connected with them on the computer she asked me if I had made any adjustments to the volume.  I admitted that I had and she told me on average how many times a day I had adjusted the volume and that it was always turning them up.

I had gone in the second day and asked her to turn the ambient sounds down.  So she raised them up and I can hear better.  Duh!  🙂  It’s not as hard to get acclimated  to them as I thought it would be.

So we had a nice dinner last night and played with the kids for awhile and then Miss Gabby announced it was time for her evening meal and that meant they were on their way home.  I wish I would have had my camera with me to photograph this but Josh can climb up into his car seat by himself.  Pretty neat feat considering how high Angie’s SUV is off the ground.  I was impressed.

Tanks for stopping by  today.  Wish me luck on the photo shoot.  Enjoy your Saturday and be careful.
