Double the Fun!

   Each year, my sisters and I like to try to get some cute and fun photos of each others kids and us too.  Sometimes I take all of the pics on my camera and other times they are all on one of their cameras or we put their card into my camera etc......can get a little confusing.  Anyhow, I had a blast, as always, taking picks again this year and one of these years we may even remember to do it before the weather changes.  Thankfully, God blessed us with a couple sunny days that weren't to chilly to get some good photos.



   Here is Melody, my youngest niece.  She thought that sitting on the haystack outside, with ropes and blankets, kitties and doggies and her mom and me acting like .......crazy, was quite fun and funny!

   and then she decided that we were just plain 'nuts' and was no longer amused in a humorous way.

   But I managed to get a few more smiles with the help of her mommy(she knows where the tickle spots are)

   After the haystack and a change of clothes, we thought that leaves would make a nice 'back drop'.  Melody thought that they were great to and the kitty made them even better and I no longer existed.

   In my previous post I had noted that I had taken some pics of Sara and her family but that I didn't have any of the pics-I was wrong, I had a few of them.

   This is out at a friends ranch. We had a lot of fun taking pics here.  Something new and refreshing.

 At this point the girls where getting tired. I had already made them suffer through a hundred smiles(at least I am sure that is what they thought) and their tummies where telling them that lunch was needing consumption very soon!

   This pic makes me think of a duel that is about to take place between them and the camera person-me; the one that is standing between them and their lunch; the one that is making them look towards the sun and smile; the one that thinks she can just get another good pic if we do this or that or......the one has threatened them that I'll 'shoot' again if they take another step, or another, or another!

  I'm sure that you can see where this was going.  I realized and came to terms with myself that I had taken enough pics and that I'm sure some of them came out great and that if I didn't stop, well, things were going to get ugly, real ugly.

  WOW! Its been a while since I've posted anything, again!  So sorry for those of you that enjoyed reading and looking at these posts. I am going to try to get better at it again.

  A couple weeks ago, I did family pictures for my sister Sara and I was able to do a bunch of them at a friends barn. They turned out great but unfortunately I don't have them on my camera card because I used hers but I did sneek in a few of Marisa with my camera.  Wish I had been a bit more prepared and I would of had Jessie come too.

    She is growing up way to fast and is so full of a very contagious personality-she will make you smile!!

  Not afraid to 'strike a pose'.........

  ........... especially when its in one of her many hats!
