Daddy hug

I pixelated the backround on this because it was just a bunch of junk on the microwave stand....I could probably get more creative with it, but I was in a hurry, I may play with it some more later. Anyhow, I really like 'the moment' I captured.

Texas Wildflowers 2005

So, we didn't have many wildflowers this past year, or for the past several years as a matter of fact, because of either drought (now) or too much rain. So I thought I'd blog this pretty shot I got on my way to my sisters house in 2005. Look at all the color! I usually try to get some good bluebonnet shots, but this was just breathtaking.

I shot this out at our Pastor's house during his birthday party last week. Pretty huh? Thinking of adding a scripture verse to the bottom and printing a large copy for Pat (the pastor's wife) for her birthday.

Ronnie - AFTER

Ronnie got his hair all cut off. I've been suggesting he do this for a long time (what can I say, I like bald men).....anyhow, I think he looks good. And just think - no more gray hairs!

checkin' out the lobsters...

Yeah, Evelyn loves the lobsters. She would sit there and eat next to them if there was a table there. The photo is kinda grainy, but that's because I was going flashless with my point-and-shoot. I still like the photo.

Red Lobster

I took Annie, Mom and the kids to Red Lobster the other night. I couldn't resist getting some shots of the lobster tank. Evelyn loves the lobsters, though I don't think she'd ever eat one.

look, it's a bee!!! Cool shot for being one of the first ones I took with my new lens. I'm thinking I wish I had gotten the one with the image stablizer now, though. Oh well.....live and learn.
