Thank you, Jesus.

Glad I thanked Him before I ate any of it!!! :D

Fast little friend.

I've been trying to get this little guy for a few days now, but he is so fast I still haven't managed to get the shot I really want. So, I thought I would post the ones I did get. He seems very comfortable with me and comes right up to the feeder even with me standing fairly close. Maybe I will get that "still" shot I am looking for eventually.

Lost Comic-Con memorial video

This is a video the producers showed at Comic-Con of all our dear departed Losties. After this, Dominic Monaghan (Charlie) came out on stage and waved to the crowd, just long enough for them to catch a glimpse of his hand. Can you read it???

Another birthday.

This is Rain. She has the sweetest personality. She is another friend from dance class, and it was her birthday Saturday. I took the camera with me and got some shots of all the fun. These were some of my favorites.

Hugging each other goodbye.

Aftermath of the broken pinata.

Because I miss it so!!

New B&W conversion.

I've been working on a different black and white conversion I read about, so I thought I would post a pic of my attempt. I know, it's not completely black and white because of the tomato, but I like the little pop of red. :D

365

What I've been doing all weekend.

Here she is.

Alyssa Rylie. My daughter's best friend's baby. Like I said, I didn't get too long with her since mommy had to run due to an emergency, but I am hoping to get the chance to capture some more sweet moments with her some time in the future.

Slacker!!!

That's what I've been. So sorry to all my faithful viewers. Here are a few to make up for my absence.

Cherry tomato.

Some 365s.

I had an opportunity to get a couple of shots (literally) of my daughter's friend's baby. She got an emergency phone call after I had only taken 3 shots. In any case, I will try to post them later today. Also, I have been hired to shoot a WEDDING on July 31st. OH MY!!!!!!!! Looking forward to it!!

365s

My cherry tomato plants have finally started turning red!!! 214/365

Morning routine. 215/365

A couple outtakes from my morning routine.

Day 1

Today my son left for 9 weeks of basic training followed by 18 weeks of AIT training. It is a bittersweet feeling. I am very proud of him and I am so grateful that he will be serving a country that supports its military so heartily. I look forward to updating you all on his progress. Keep him in your prayers, along with all the military. :D

PS....I only cried for like 10 minutes...which is good for me. :*(

Happy 4th of July!!

Trying to get back on the 365 wagon that I fell off of...here are the past 3 days. :D

Peace!!!

Yep, I chopped it off. :D

Parades, fireworks and cookouts. That's what our weekend consisted of. It was nice to see the fireworks at the lake again this year (the dam broke several years ago and they finally finished fixing it last summer.) Here are some shots of the fun.

The bright "star" on the right is actually the moon. :D Slow shutter speeds are FUN!!!
