A T. Rex Named Sue

May 27, 2013May 25, 2013 by Aaron Graves

Sue the T. Rex, from the Chicago Field Museum, has come here to Omaha at the Durham Museum. So, naturally we had to take Kaylyn, who has a fascination with dinosaurs. A good number of the pictures are just from the museum itself, but I did get quite a few of Sue. Enjoy! You can see all the high-res photos on Flickr.

My Daughter, The Model

October 11, 2013May 18, 2013 by Aaron Graves

My daughter fancies herself a model, I think. At 4 1/2 years old, she can’t help but “strike a pose” every time a camera is brought out. And she routinely calls out “take a picture Dad!” We were at the Lee G. Simmons Conservation Park & Wildlife Safari in Ashland. I’ve shared some pictures before.
