Week 15

CAMPING

We went camping this weekend with our boys and some of our family.

Everyone had a lot of fun...

Carter and Zachary took a boat ride right before we had to leave.

A sampling of the pictures from Saturday camping. We woke up to a beautiful foggy lake view.

The kids got to explore, check out the river,

 (I didn't include the pictures of my sweet hubby jumping in to save our nephew Jack. Scary!!)

shoot some guns, do a lot of fishing and hang out at the fire until 3 am.

The adults actually got to enjoy fishing, watching the kids and RELAX!

Thanks to my dad for letting us camp on his land!

I just thought this picture of Ruby was funny.

We were all at Ingles waiting to leave for camping.

We took six cars for 15 people...Wow! 

We arrived at 9:30pm and set up camp in the dark...Fun!

It takes a lot of stuff to tent camp for two nights.

Week 14

Showdown!!

Will loves his toys and this was a battle between Batman and Gronckle (a dragon from the movie we saw on Saturday)

We took Will to see "How to Train your Dragon"

It was a great movie. We had a great day relaxing too!

Daddy playing with Will on a beautiful Friday night.

Wyatt and Carter were gone to their Dad's house this weekend.

After a nice run, I loved sitting on the porch and reading to Will.

Wyatt snapped this shot.

 

04.07.10

Our 4th of July rose is starting to bloom.

04.06.10

Lesson 2

This week I had to practice my aperture.

The top picture has a lower aperture to blur the background and the bottom picture has a higher aperture that keeps the background more focused.

This is my grandmother's marble bench that I now have outside my door with my boys favorite rock. (I think it came from grandma)

FYI - I am taking the Oh Shoot class at jessicasprague.com

04.05.10

Wyatt and Will goofing off on the front porch. Carter was sick most of the week with strep throat. So we will have to get photos of my Carter next week.
