To The Beach!

 
Wow! Two posts in one day! These pics are from the other day! Bryce was playing in the water hose. He loved it! He would cry if you turned off the water. In this first one, he was trying to catch the water. He would look at it all confused. I think that he thought that he had it! He then tried to blow bubbles in it like he does in the swimming pool. It looks like he is drinking it, but he was blowing bubbles in it. Kids are so funny! We are off to the beach today for a week-long vacation with my whole immediate family. Fun and the sun! What more could you want? Oh, yea....a teething baby....waa hoo! Catch ya'll on the flip side! lol
 

The Other Flower Girl

 These pics are of the bride and the other flower girl. She is the little sister of the groom.  She has these piercing blue eyes. I loved how she was standing in this third one, so I cropped it a little close. I think that if I knew how to photoshop, I might give it an antique look. What do you think? Any other suggestions? She is gorgeous!

One of the Flower Girls

 
As promised, more wedding pics. This little jewel is a pic of one of the beautiful little "jewels". One of two flower girls. This is the bride's neice. The pearls were a gift on her first birthday. What a neat gift, that she will probably wear on her own wedding day! The other flower girl was the brother's little sis. I will post her later. This pic was not a great one cause the adults were tossing their hair with eyes closed and such, so I cropped and fixed it this way and I love it. What a sweet little girl! More to come... I hope!

More Of The Sisters

 
I thought that you might like to see more of the sisters. Aren't they pretty? I think that each one of them has their own unique look. When I was making this one, their dad was standing nearby and said, "Ahhhh! My girls!" It was so sweet. I have so many pics that I want to share. I just can't figure out how to share them. I wish that I had more patience with computers and a lot more knowledge. I hope that you enjoy seeing more of the sisters than just their feet! I will try to share some others real soon!

Feet Photo Contest


 
This pic was made a few weeks ago at a wedding that I photographed. Yea...I said wedding. The thought of it still makes me want to fall apart. I couldn't believe that she was giving ME the opportunity to capture one of the most important days of her life! I got the job through a friend (Thanks Kelli!). The bride wanted a photographer who was learning (hoping to save some money). Pretty scary, since I can only edit through Picasa and not through one of the great Photoshop softwares. Well, I gave her a great deal and off we went. This pic is of her and her sister's feet. They didn't know that I was making it. They thought that I was holding the camera down to check my light. lol Feet is the theme in this week's "I heart faces" contest. Click on the photo to check out their beautiful and each uniquely painted pink and white "pigs". If you knew the sisters, their nail polish choices suit their different personalities. Funny, huh? I hope to share some more of the wedding pics later, but for now, head over to iheartfaces and check out all of the "this little piggies".

Water Boy

 
Bryce played in the sprinkler the other evening when Bryan got home from work. He had his "dry" clothes on. Bryan was entertaining him outside, while we waited for my parents, who were coming for dinner. Needless to say, after sliding down the slide, swinging in the swing, and running after the ball, this was a refreshing treat. He let the water hit him directly in the face, and YES... he tried to stop it with his hands a time or two. What fun! Straight to the tub after a quick strip down in the garage, and a naked streak (while giggling) running through the house! Bryce that is... NOT BRYAN! lol

First Haircut

 
This collage is of the big day that we lost our curl in the back otherwise known to some as the "rat tail". It was cute if it was curly, but if it decided to be straight, it looked like a rat tail. lol He did pretty well with the whole ordeal. Janice, the lady who cut it, is a family friend and my former pastor's wife. Her husband also married Bryan and I almost 10 years ago. They are really sweet. My former pastor had been working in the yard and came in while we were there to cool off from the Bamalama heat. Dr. Reaves was so sweet and silly to entertain Bryce to take his mind off of things. Bryce cried a little, but recovered quickly to Dr. Reaves's silly antics. He let Bryce rub his head and talked to him. We also discovered that velcro rollers are lots of fun and a "wagonwheel" cracker solves many problems. Bryce actually let her take the clippers to his neck. I think that he wanted to play with them. Boys! Well, the little curl now resides in a plastic bag in my scrapbook room, longing for a place to rest. I have just started his scrapbook. I haven't even made it past the day that he was born! Maybe when he is 18 I will have a place to put the little curl! That can wait! I am having too much fun and time passes too quickly. He is such a Big Boy! I love you my brave little punkedoo!
