Dugout Dad

John Nichols, a member of the New Jersey Yankees, talks to his sons Tucker

and Hayden before the start of the team's final game of the season at First Energy

Park in Lakewood, New Jersey on Tuesday, October 28, 2014.

A few weeks ago my friend John asked me if I'd be interested in photographing

his recreational baseball team play their final game of the season. The two teams

rented out First Energy Park, home of the Lakewood Blue Claws for the night.

Sounding like a lot of fun to me I met up with him and we took the trip out to 

Lakewood. It was pretty cool to have the park all to our selves. While I got

some action pictures I liked from the game, the shot of John talking to his sons

before the start was one of my favorites of the night.

Fall Family Fun ...

Lori, Cameron and Travis Caudle pose for a portrait at Tyler State Park in Newtown, Pennsylvania on Saturday, October 25, 2014.

We had an awesome time taking some fall portraits at Tyler State Park of my niece, brother-in-law and sister-in-law a few weeks ago. The park was absolutely packed with a lot of families that had the same idea. Which makes sense as the scenery there is awesome. Afterwards we hit Issac Newton's in Newtown for some dinner. Love that place. Thanks again for coming up guys. It was definitely one of my favorite days of the fall!

Aruba

My wife Taren watches the sun set over the Caribbean Sea while vacationing in Aruba on Wednesday, November 6, 2014.

A couple weeks ago Taren and I ran our first half marathon. We knew the training and the race would be fun but tough -- and they were. So we decided after registering for the race we would reward ourselves with a trip to Aruba. It was 40 degrees and really windy the day of our race. I think knowing that the next day we'd be chilling on a nice warm beach really helped both of us get through it. If you ever get the chance, check out Aruba as it's pretty great. Sitting here writing this now as winter begins to make an early start here in Yardley I'm wishing we were still there!

Joel

You know there's nothing like family. This is my cousin Joel. Being the awesome guy that he is, Joel came all the way down from Lake Placid, NY to watch our cat Murray and house while we're away for a few days. He's been in town a couple days now and I have had a great time catching up.  It seems like just yesterday we were getting together at my grandparents home various times of the year and hanging out by the bay. But in reality, it's been way too long! Thanks again for everything, Joel. So glad we've had some time to hang out.
