February 23 - Branch Fence

February 24, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

There is this little walking path that takes you right by this little garden area with the coolest fence I have ever seen.    I would love to do a small section of the yard with this kind of fencing if I was mechanically inclined to build it, but I am not.

 

Maybe this summer I will start saving up branches to help build something like this in a few years with help from my kids or husband.   I would love to have a nice little garden in the back corner of the yard and possibly a branch bench and it may just be a photo session setting someday!

 


February 22 - I'm Mad

February 23, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

My youngest that just turned two in November is quite vocal.    Out of my four children I have to say he is the most talkative at a young age.    The latest thing that Sam does is cross his arms, put the lip out and say "I'm Mad".   Now when you ask him why he is mad he says "I dunno know", but he still leaves his arms crossed.

 

He must have seen this from his brother or somewhere else because this is fairly new and adorable.   Some of the things he says amazes me; He tells me things are "delicious", "With God anything are possible", "I'm gonna kick his butt" and now the whole arms crossed and "I'm mad!"

 


February 21 - Home Schooling

February 22, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

My husband is a great musician; he is truly talented and comes from a talented family.   I am very lucky that he has taught Meg to play guitar and now he starting to teach Brian. He also started giving lessons to a dear family friend too when his schedule allows.

 

Recently, my son, Brian watched my husband, grandpa and uncle at a recent family party play all play together and he was at that time bitten by the bug. It does not surprise me this house is always filled with music of some type. Even the small little men love music and have natural rhythm which they get from their father. I had to sneak this shot as it was dark and I didn't have time for flash or different lens just had to snap!  

 


February 20 - Unique Angle

February 20, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

I wanted to post a photo of my son learning guitar from my husband, but he asked that I keep that for myself and not share with the world.   How can you say no to that? 

 

This was an image I took today and wanted to capture this unique angle of the tree and the sunset that was hitting just the one side.   I love trees and I will be trying this angle again in the spring and summer on a different types of trees.     Frame them all together, I believe that would look great!    I am hoping to see some Spanish moss hanging from trees in New Orleans when I go soon that would be heavenly!

 


February 19 - No Photo

February 19, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

As I have mentioned numerous times, I have turned my children against taking photos.   It is my fault and my fault alone as I have learned about photography by photographing my children.     I made them sit in various locations and in poses to learn how to use my flash, my lenses, my backgrounds and my cameras.

 

This is what I get now, unless I bribe them.

Maybe one day when they are getting married or having babies they will beg me to take their photos.   I cannot wait for those days!
