Stevens Family Portraits at Prairie Creek Park in Richardson, Tx.

I helped Lindsey photograph one of her co-workers family portraits a couple of weeks ago and just now had the time to edit them a little and post them. I served as a human light stand while Lindsey took full control of my MK IV.

Houston Astros at Texas Rangers, Texas wins 10-1, but a pigeon stole home plate.

The Rangers easily beat the Astros 10-1 at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington, Texas Sunday night. Josh Hamilton also had the second longest home run in park history at 468-feet into the upper deck in right field. The TCU Horned Frogs were also on hand for pre-game ceremonies to honor their first trip in school history to the College World Series. To top off the night, a pigeon "stole" home plate twice in the ninth inning. You can read the game story here: http://www.star-telegram.com/2010/06/27/2296901/rangers-10-astros-1.html
