Seven

My not so little guy turned seven a month and a half ago and I am just now getting around to taking pictures of him. The weather was so nice this past weekend that we finally got to go out. The first two are my favorites, the last one is his.

Penny For Your Thoughts

She was looking out the window. At what...I don't know. Sometimes I would give anything to know what goes on inside that beautiful little mind of hers.


I tried to be sneaky and take several pictures of her, but she saw me after a few.

You Know What's Hard To Take Pictures Of?

Ice. We went to the Ice Festival this past weekend. My challenge to myself for the day was to keep my camera in full manual mode. I have been playing around with my camera in manual mode lately and I really like having complete control of the camera. However, it means that I don't always get things like exposure and shutter speed right. Especially on ice. Here are some of the pictures I took:

I don't know if there was an official theme, but there were a lot of ocean related sculptures so I'm guessing there was an ocean theme?

How I feel most days!

My husband calls this one the "Heil Hitler" picture. Leave it to him to ruin my picture!! =)

A couple abstract ones:

25 weeks, 2 days

A Few More

I've got to take lots of pictures of these while they last!

My Favorite

My husband brought me flowers out of the blue the other day. He brought my favorite flowers, tulips, in my favorite color, red. He even said "These were the least developed ones so I knew they would last longer so you could take pictures of them longer." Now I ask you, does that man know me or what??? Here are a few I have taken so far:

I love the flowers, and I LOVE that man!

Look Who's 1!!

Time flies!! I've taken pictures of this little girl since she was a few weeks old, and now look at her!! Almost all grown up!! *sigh* They don't stay little for long, do they? Here's a few from her shoot:


A lady I go to church with made this cute tu-tu and embroidered the birthday girl's name on her shirt. I had no idea she had that talent, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to become a loyal customer of hers!

One with Mom!
