Challenge #... What number ARE we on??

Good morning class!! Number 1 is off today so I will be posting our homework for this weekend.

(Fingers crossed) Number 1 and I are going to Buzzfest this weekend so we thought we would make the concert our challenge. Now, I have my fingers crossed because one of number 1's boys has been a little under the weather. Everyone join me in a little prayer to the concert gods that he gets better and we are all set to go on Sunday.

It will be an AWESOME time at the concert since there are about 20 bands playing and our Monday posts might be a little late cause I am sure we will all be sleeping in after our rockin' music fest so please cut us a little slack.

Now, I know you are all wickedly jealous of us, but try and have a good weekend anyway.

Fun Family Weekend

Good Morning everyone! I had a wonderful weekend with my fam. I hope you all did the same. It has been a very long time since we were all together. I did the same as my sis and my family pics are of my adorable little nephews.

Now first let me say that I am not a people photographer. I take pictures of flowers and trees and airplanes. This was my first baby photo session so I apologize if the pics aren't the best. There are a lot of challenges with baby photography and even more with twins. You rarely get them both to look in the same direction at the same time and there is a lot of movement. Their cute little facial expressions are so quick that it's a challenge to catch them before they're gone. Not to mention the short attention spans. I must say, my nephews are naturals. They had the best temperament and let us mess with them for a long time before they had enough.



Now, as I was leaving my sister chellenged me to take one picture on the way home. There is a massive coal quarry that I wanted to take pictures of, but I was too chicken. There were a lot of danger and beware signs. Not to mention the NO TRESSPASSING signs. I didnt want to get arrested so I settled for a more legal photo op. This is the long road to my home. I hope it satifies you sis.

Love them baby boys!!!



I hope everyone had a great weekend!! Hangin out with the fam was wonderful. I think this is the first time that we have all been together in a really long time. Too bad noone thought to get a picture of that. But we did get a bunch of beautiful pictures of our brand new AWESOME nephews-Ben and Liam. They are the first babies in our family in almost 9 years so we are very excited and blessed to have them. They were so good through all of the wardrobe changes and adjusting that we did. When these boys are old enough I am definitely going to give them a cookie-Until then I will just give them all of the hugs and kisses that I can get away with.
Fingers crossed that everyone has an AWESOME week!!
Talk to you all on Friday!!!

It's Finally Friday!!!

So is it just me or does it feel like it has taken forever to get to this point. I have been tired and grouchy all week long so I am very grateful that the weekend is here.

For this weekend we decided that our topic would be FAMILY, we are getting together with ours so we thought why not focus on it. So do whatever it is that enters your creative mind and run with it. We haven't exactly decided what our plan is yet, but we agreed that once #2 gets to my house that we would do something creative and awesome. So come check us out on Monday and see what we decide on. I look forward to seeing what everyone ends up doing. Remember the big word for this weekend is FAMILY-So get out and enjoy being with yours, I know that we will.

Until Monday!!! Have a great weekend!!

Challenge #6 Results




Okay, so after reading my sis's post I dont feel as bad. I didnt get an opportunity to take pictures. In my defense, getting a house ready to sell is hard work. By the time I got home I was too exhausted to go take pics. Plus, it was raining. Yes! I know I could have taken photos in the house, but the whole point of my useless babble is that I wasn't feeling it this weekend.

However, I do have some older photos that I haven't posted here before that I could share to prove that I do know how to take macro and motion pics.
