random friday

When Jenna came by to leave the boys while she went to a wedding rehearsal this evening, I quickly snapped a picture of her. She’s a little over 2 months away from the big delivery! Can’t wait to take some real maternity pics of her

thursday’s at mia’s

When PaPa drove in from work, the boys were as excited as usual to see him.  After visiting a while he took their mommy’s car, with them in it, and disappeared.  They were going to the grocery store to get dessert for our dinner…..cupcakes!  I wondered what was taking them so long, when I found out they were taking a side trip to the dollar store.  It reminded me of the times my parents would come to visit and pick the girls up and take them to McCrory’s….one of the last of the old fashioned dime stores….where they would each pick out something to buy.

They came home with these fun water pumps and squirt guns.  Brenton kept squirting his using his thumb instead of his trigger finger.  He squirted it sideways…it was too funny.  But Trey knew just what to do with all the toys.  It just so happened that their Mommy brought swimsuits, so after dinner we hooked the sprinkler up, filled a 5 gallon bucket  with water…………and had a water extravaganza in the front yard.  Trey kept losing his drawers…..as you can see in the pictures.  But they enjoyed it so much.  And it was lots of fun watching them!

fun days

I’ve been at Jenna’s everyday this week helping her organize her new home….it’s been so much fun watching everything fall into place.  I tell you, the light in her home is gorgeous…it just doesn’t get much better!  I could shoot there all day :)  Today we worked in her bedroom.  The pics start with Karis and her mom coming over to pick up some moving boxes, then Brenton receiving his pool toy birthday gifts from Uncle Joel and Aunt Kate, and Trey being PaPa’s helper.

The ladies in my Friday Bible study group got together for food and fellowship this morning.

We enjoyed visiting and getting to one another better….just wish everyone could have come.

I had fun hanging out at the Swimming Hall of Fame today where a sweet family from my hometown traveled 1200 miles to watch their 14 year old daughter swim the 50 meter freestyle in the YMCA Nationals.

It’s my first attempt at this kind of thing……lots to learn here….but was happy to have the opportunity to slide into the VIP section with the
family and snap away.  Thank you Montgomery’s!

If you’re interested you can scroll down and watch me play with water pics taken in high noon sun[not my favorite light to shoot in, but it's always good to be stretched]……but be warned…..there are ALOT!

eyes

Leah mugging for me on a photo shoot in November….unfortunately, some of my best shots were of her :) and not the subject[s] I was there to shoot!  The light was just too high in the sky.

But such a lovely spot for a photo shoot.

I kept telling her to lift her sunglasses,  because I was looking at her eyes to get the angle just right.

My daughter, Jenna, is such a great mom…..I’m so proud of her!  I’m usually so busy snapping shots of her little guys, so yesterday I grabbed her and had her sit for a few herself.
