i heart faces- Jump for Joy

I am hook-sliding this entry into i heart faces at the very last minute! This weeks theme is jump for joy. I have a series of the girls jumping on their bouncy thing in the back yard. Every single picture they are making a funny face. It just makes me smile to watch them.

Whoops!  I forgot to do my i heart faces submission.  Oh well…this post definitely makes up for it!  It was a beautiful weekend here in South East Texas.  I got to photograph this GORGEOUS little girl.  She has the bluest eyes…taking after her dad.  I have a funny feeling as she gets older, he will be waiting at the door with a shotgun.;)

At the Park

I love the spring.  I can’t believe that we had snow on Tuesday but this weekend was just gorgeous!!!  I had a photoshoot make-up from 2 weeks ago…it was FREEZING.  (In TX that means it is in the 50’s but the wind is a killer here since we are so close to the water…it makes the air humid and bone-chilling cold.)

I digress.  After spending the morning outside planting our strawberry plants, I took the girls with me to the park to shoot a B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L little girl (more to come on that later).  They had so much fun.

I am trying out this new little flash player for the pictures.  (Please ignore the little boy holding himself…boys will be boys…)

i heart faces- Hands

One thing I wish I had done was take more pictures of the girls body parts when they were babies.  I love their hands and legs with the baby wrinkles.  Better late than never, I took this picture of the girls holding hands.  I just love it!  This week is hands on i heart faces…and that is just what this picture is….hands.

Garden 2010

If you are new to following my blog, you need to go back and read anything in the “Gardening Woes” category.  We had one heck of a time last year keeping rats out of our garden.  The weather is starting to get warmer (upper 60’s today), in my ongoing effort to actually become a gardener, I thought we would start working in the yard a little today.  Wade informed me there is a chance of snow on Tuesday…really?!?!?!

I am planning on expanding our plot to an 8′x16′ area.  Right now it is 4′x16′, so that means it will double in size.  I have BIG plans…we’ll see if Wade can help me accomplish what I want to do. ;)

How about this outfit?  Doesn’t everyone where striped socks, black dress shoes and an orange shirt to garden in???  And don’t forget the fish tattoo on the right arm.  Where did she come from???

We got our cucumbers, tomatoes, and jalapenos started.  We have corn and carrots, but those have to be planted in the garden over Spring Break.
