This is it! I love this blog dearly, but it is time to move on. I hope you will join me over at my new blog. Click HERE to take you there! I want to thank each and every one of you for following our journey, but it doesn't end here. It will continue. I hope to see you there!

Running actions-

I often have trouble finding an action that works well with Linhsey. I think it's her skin tone. I have all of the Florabella collection and Eye Candy actions, yet I hardly ever get to use them since I am always taking pics of L. There are only 2 or 3 that seem to work with her.

I snuck this quick shot of my niece over the weekend while her daddy was putting her shoes on. She had been jumping on the trampoline.

Here it is SOOC.

Here it is with Florabella's Swoon at 53%.

And here is it again with Florabella's B&W Film. I have been so anxious to use this one and it does NOT work on Linhsey at all.

So what do you think? What actions do you use and what works best with your children?

Lightroom Presets? That's a whole other post!

More from Sunday.

We walked through our woods to the Peace Garden at the church.

Marissa had a child cut her hair at her school while she was away. We had to get it fixed. It's short.

I would have straightened this image but then the Peace Garden sign would have been cropped out.

Some things never change.

Gotta love it when the littles decide they can't walk any longer.

I have a new blog in the making. Soon I will be posting a link on this one to the new one. I definitely think it is time to move on from this one. The new one will still combine our lives and my photography.


It's exciting!

She's home!

Linhsey was so excited to go to the airport to pick up her sister on Saturday. Only problem is TSA changed their rules and would only let Mike through security to wait at the gate for Marissa.
L and I waited at the food court.

And then finally they arrived.

And then she laid eyes on me. Look at the sweet look L has while looking at M.

She lost some teeth.

And then it was a weekend of children playing.

Sisters and cousins.

And today it is back to work for Mike and back to school for the kids.

I needed a little time to recover!

Is that shirt just darling? Love the camera and strap. What I love even more is that she spotted it first and asked for it! It's from CrewCuts (J Crew Kids). She picked out a necklace too. *Gasp* How girly of her! It's a bicycle. So perfect. So L.

It's that time of the year again! Mother's Day weekend is the opening weekend for our local farmer's market. I think we have been counting down to this moment just about all winter long. In fact, this may be the one thing that got us through the winter, knowing that fresh organic fruit, veggies, and vegan treats were in the future again.

I upgraded to LR3 half way through editing these picture and now I am having trouble with the size of them.

Watching the train go by is always a highlight for L.

Guess what begins next weekend?

Racetrack season!

Bring on the horse races!


How did you spend your weekend?
