Grandkids...

These beautiful babes are my dear friend Tana's grandkids. This was my first time taking pics for someone other than myself....and it was not easy! I learned that i need to practice composition a little more and try not to get too close. That will be hard because i love close ups! I had a wonderful time and these precious children were absolutely wonderful!!!

Thursday...con't

We had such a great time at Tana's house. We ate hot dogs, made smores, and rode horses. Little Lily is so sweet...she was scared at first, but soon became friends with Tuffy the miniature horse. Maddy didn't want anything to do with the horses...which surprised me. She usually likes to ride. She made new friends with Bailey, Tana's grandaughter. That kept her busy most of the night.

Lisa and her family came too. I do think Tylar and Tucker had fun...Kelly and kids came too, but those pics are on another camera since mine went dead! I can't believe I didn't charge that crazy thing!!!!

Thursday...

I've been learning to play around with photoshop lately. Taking an online class seems to help a lot! This picture has an overlay....next I'm learning about masks. Nothing much new going on. Had a great time scrapping with friends on Friday. I sure needed that. And Michelle made a book!!! I can't wait to see it. Friday I go to my lovely friend's house to capture some precious grandaughter moments. I hope she's happy with the end results. I've been hooked on books, thanks to a friend (Jessi ). Lately I'm loving Dean Koontz. All so far are awesome! Saturday, Raymond had his 20 year school reunion....that was fun. I got to meet Stephanie's ( a scrapping buddy) sister. We concluded the night with dinner at the Lakehouse....yummy! Now that you're all caught up on my life....I'll leave you with this....

Happy Fourth!

We had a relaxing day at home today. Raymond smoked some ribs, pork tenderloin, and roast....I made fresh squash, cabbage, and fried potatoes...yummy! Took the boys to Galaxy to get some fireworks, they were packed! I can't believe how much money they made while I was there.....people spend money on silly stuff I guess...I was there too!!!
Had fun playing with my camera, I haven't been playing much. Maddy had to put her hair in three pigtails while she was at Mamaw's today. Then I had to take a picture of it. I'm tired and ready for bed....Have a great Sunday!

Lovin' Summer....

Don't you just love summer break? Although I am not doing much this summer, I feel totally exhausted! I've painted my downstairs living room and the twins room.....maybe the other living room soon, we'll see. I went with a burnt orange color, and black curtains and other details are black as well. Looks way cooler than I would have thought. Still have to paint the hall way....I hate painting, but love the end result. As soon as I get the boys stuff orgainized...I'll post a pic. Next on my long list for this summer....my closet.....we'll see about that! I haven't even scrapped at all. I wish I was here.....
