 I have read some tutorials lately to help me learn how to take better photos of my Christmas tree – they help with photos of other lights, too – so I decided to share some of my successes with you. Note: I have had my DSLR for about a year and a half and am by [...]  It starts so early… Always watching, listening, waiting for her turn to do the big kid things. And always eager to see him at the end of the day, this is her time with him, her self instituted ritual (that’s Eli looking on). It melts this mama heart to pieces! This post is linked to Wordless Wednesday.  Over the last year I’ve become increasingly interested in photography. So much so, that we’ve been researching DSLR cameras for beginners and photography classes and I’ve been reading a few photography blogs to begin familiarizing myself with terminology and technique.

The trains were previously removed because she wouldn’t leave the track put together and now she thinks it’s the best place to climb because it’s just her height!! This post is linked to Wordless Wednesday. [...]  I’m a little late getting this posted, but I couldn’t pass up this week’s You Capture theme – Up Close. We did a homeschool science unit on caterpillars and butterflies and I purchased one of those butterfly house kits. You know the kind with the live caterpillars that you watch turn into a chrysalis and [...]  One of our favorite and least expensive family past times is exploring mountains, scenery and small towns (which usually means lots of day trips)! We like to pack up snacks and a picnic meal and head out for some exploration. Yesterday we decided to go on a road trip (a whole day [...]  I LOVE this week’s You Capture – the theme is nature! Nature is one of my favorite things to photograph (in addition to my kids and old/dilapidated wooden structures such as barns). We went to Helen Hunt Falls this past weekend for a short bit and it was beautiful. We’ve had a lot of rain and [...]  |
