i’ll resist the urge to bust out in vanilla ice right now….you’re welcome! ha!

we woke up to ice this morning, not something that happens every day down here. all the schools started 2 hours late to give the sun some time to work it’s magic and melt the ice.

i’m a bit embarassed to post these because i know there are a few A-MAZING macro photogs that frequent this blog. a macro photographer, i am not. i just haven’t gotten it, probably because i refuse to use my tripod. well, that and the fact that i went outside this morning in yoga pants, a t-shirt and my slippers….uncontrollable shivers and macro don’t exactly mix lol. ty took mercy on me after […]

“dew” and a “do”

I wish I was better at macro, but the truth is, I refuse to love my tripod. Even still, it’s fun to pretend what it would be like if I was an ant in my yard…I fell in love with the bokeh in these….dreamy.

As mentioned in my previous post, our family is having schedule struggles right now. Poor Teagan, just […]

I didn’t have a lot of time to play but still had fun. I wish I was better at this. I want to be, but I’m my own worst enemy because I refuse to use the tripod. Ah well…. The dude He helped me a ton today by filling up A LOT of Easter eggs. I’d love to know how much candy he ate while working though because he had quite the sugar high this evening. Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk =) Tomorrow, egg hunt and BBQ, 7 toddlers. It’s gonna be crazy. And FUN! Happy Easter everyone!!

Just posting a few macros tonight as I’m crazy busy proofing sessions and working on the last edition of Ty’s school newsletter. My agapanthas are in full bloom….took these last week. Big thanks to Anna who helped me with some crop suggestions on these! My great big hydrangea in the front yard is almost in full bloom, I can’t wait!!! And for those who asked about the movie below….you should add the ice first, add some salt on top and then add the water, makes it super cold, super fast!! =)

I need a pick me up.

Pink flowers are happy, right? I need a little pick me up, I’ve had a rough couple of days. Nothing big, just lots of little stuff that isn’t going right. Taryn whined alllllllll day yesterday, not crying, that I can handle well, but she was just whiney. I think she’s teething. Jase and Ty picked at one another all evening long, you know, like brothers would…."He pinched me – NO I DIDN’T". And our AC went out. Little T and I got back from the grocery store and it was 84 degrees in the house. Ugh. I seriously can’t stand being hot, it was miserable. All I can say is thank God for my friend Stacy, her family owns an […]
