Two weeks ago I started my photography class and have learned so much so far. And I am loving the homework. My two younger daughters went up north to the cabin with my husband last weekend. My oldest decided to stay home because she had a birthday party to go to (my niece Taylor's). I had to work, but I did get to spend some time at my brothers house with his beautiful girls. Which worked out well as I got a little Photography class homework done. My kids get a little sick of me snapping pictures of them but I know I can always count on my niece's to mug for the camera. This is Ray, isn't she the cutest! This is my entry for I heart faces week 38 challenge "Smirk".<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiS35ptusle-IwR3wGMspM1FmQI9IsBFnJIojZDWJBzQuDn3xAwiNFqZJp5BiryDdntmmuGYzoMGEYnCvvhm28cHh4B5JPMVtHzFYSQcV3cgdwYwm2Kaio_Q6852lXoiJJ_TIoLI02cAo/s1600/IMG_0028.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5519043744335892370" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiS35ptusle-IwR3wGMspM1FmQI9IsBFnJIojZDWJBzQuDn3xAwiNFqZJp5BiryDdntmmuGYzoMGEYnCvvhm28cHh4B5JPMVtHzFYSQcV3cgdwYwm2Kaio_Q6852lXoiJJ_TIoLI02cAo/s400/IMG_0028.JPG" /></a> Make sure to check out all the amazing entries by clicking the button bellow.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.iheartfaces.com/" mce_href="http://www.iheartfaces.com"><img src="http://www.iheartfaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/I_Heart_Faces_Photography_125.jpg" mce_src="http://www.iheartfaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/I_Heart_Faces_Photography_125.jpg" /></a></center><center> </center><div align="left">Thanks for stopping by :)</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5395343888887970241.post-79065204196004649432010-09-06T07:14:00.000-07:002010-09-06T07:22:53.468-07:00I'll still here.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh9KUPNFnu_VI0HmCwNZBKd70q-Ef1Qb3vhyphenhyphenYX-uDpVcjvAYPeJQZ4i6U4tYDIWqcgI3UTZByRFcMX1DRAB1nhS1WbxP1yMpHHTT9zHC9joKhxmM9dn9IQF5aPZgBonsiNl9D1JESgs_E/s1600/IMG_0338.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 263px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513805830989561074" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh9KUPNFnu_VI0HmCwNZBKd70q-Ef1Qb3vhyphenhyphenYX-uDpVcjvAYPeJQZ4i6U4tYDIWqcgI3UTZByRFcMX1DRAB1nhS1WbxP1yMpHHTT9zHC9joKhxmM9dn9IQF5aPZgBonsiNl9D1JESgs_E/s400/IMG_0338.JPG" /></a><br /><div>Wow, I haven't posted in a long time.

It was a blast. Last year we got up at 4am to get ready and get to Frankenmuth by 7am both mornings. This year we stayed at the Bavarian Inn. Which made it so much nicer, especially because the girls had such a busy schedule. 1 game Friday evening and 3 games Saturday. As always Dan took some amazing pictures of the games, and I took some mediocre pictures of the team having fun and doing what these wonderful fun loving girls do in there down time (when they are staying in a hotel with 5 pools and an arcade). I don't usually share a lot of Dan's photos because they are his and he really isn't into sharing his work, which is such a shame he really rocks the camera. BUT this one is my favorite. Even though Alyssa ate about two pounds of dust, when she slid into home.<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485606216225392322" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSUdOwUqgaFzi7sLKHl9dOPOV82WCKIkiPmZpaWyeG0gjkJsxdBaVZhyJ7pysT6OBZYrCutjkTfvxcxayq_NmSpGWeah7iTrmbqXxQAXMtlEFoVBbNj1IjhRr0n_cblQiOdR_BK1iDNdk/s400/IMG_0257.JPG" /> And this is Rebecca's awesome double.(also shot by Dan)<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfKkj6gWM_-bLLiNTZXCL77BHS5mE_hQp7Dp1CJVVaCc663HVHkAynw5F3jh2iE6sj9hUMEMM4bwu4fSmBnWrZkji9oZPCHJAS5Vfp42fvHrDos1p8_9J2ELMjRjzj7B2yoTY1Il58-BA/s1600/IMG_0246.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485607640584619890" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfKkj6gWM_-bLLiNTZXCL77BHS5mE_hQp7Dp1CJVVaCc663HVHkAynw5F3jh2iE6sj9hUMEMM4bwu4fSmBnWrZkji9oZPCHJAS5Vfp42fvHrDos1p8_9J2ELMjRjzj7B2yoTY1Il58-BA/s400/IMG_0246.JPG" /></a> Dan got so many great shots of the team, I can't wait to hand out the CD's to all the parents.<br /><div>Now for my mediocre shots.

So I thought I would share some of my favorites here on my blog, because I will be neglecting my blog for a while.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464413894954613506" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMasGAjymAAkv0myqHYTt2bg63haDE_cNGIPySfJazJH5mdKEIwRpWbaAJYCJ9Sd-PeM5Y7HiRxuGmLPe6w-N0_FFMeH2vetIfA94LzkRpQdsIbYmsnH4Op8OgWv4yzNlUOKMpfD1hg0o/s400/IMG_0061.JPG" /> <p align="center">Bex right before a scrimmage.<br /></p><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtYOFQWXJphD-5PxVSLDyowsy72r3TPf3LBdgrolCcwtV45rFaBxy9Oo-bdWOjXzybMEBVauGaZTKkMEBAOVW1Wlw1LDVFZGdC56r23SSafdja8bXCjmGxLL6sye6I6hfqoZJtANG73tA/s1600/IMG_0052.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464409914328236786" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtYOFQWXJphD-5PxVSLDyowsy72r3TPf3LBdgrolCcwtV45rFaBxy9Oo-bdWOjXzybMEBVauGaZTKkMEBAOVW1Wlw1LDVFZGdC56r23SSafdja8bXCjmGxLL6sye6I6hfqoZJtANG73tA/s400/IMG_0052.JPG" /></a> I call her my little Bee.</div><div align="center"></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464412401240911698" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-SRAi62tItxPvMsB6c93Vbg9tNPZjS177kPV_Zj_UuODQtrt5NGIF5rcJx1xqopeSLCOO_qXEFUK3Z4YqWggJpn8vAPZEWmfAj2lq3Z1QiXDBuwLgyfYezOQc1qaoOVFnW27lVCdTZHs/s400/IMG_0140.JPG" /> <p align="center">Sometimes Cookie will sit pretty for me...</p><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0MaowxEAfKfJ_nwVwGv7MhjW9MUDCMHbLZTqVwojJG061DvcyGR7Rs09PJiEyo8fZ3uIM1Gt-s_hXACRpSzgyfGZofklehAR5rQeimYOqjzLRyIrsvb_7hmtU0_FO-Q7EuZyA9ZIPY3E/s1600/IMG_0136.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464412392893221810" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0MaowxEAfKfJ_nwVwGv7MhjW9MUDCMHbLZTqVwojJG061DvcyGR7Rs09PJiEyo8fZ3uIM1Gt-s_hXACRpSzgyfGZofklehAR5rQeimYOqjzLRyIrsvb_7hmtU0_FO-Q7EuZyA9ZIPY3E/s400/IMG_0136.JPG" /></a> but not for long...<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwzt5rYnKaIqjxDfD68OxPn7gsniMkwjXq6LEud4rFYxIQfXUbjxitDWlU971Z7Bm08VepaTkLBfsAcJMrbZF7kfWwocXPk-ruANY4pBSo_z7u2gSNgmAT-i_RLFk2HzEdNbONK_9sko4/s1600/IMG_0080.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464411056622000738" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwzt5rYnKaIqjxDfD68OxPn7gsniMkwjXq6LEud4rFYxIQfXUbjxitDWlU971Z7Bm08VepaTkLBfsAcJMrbZF7kfWwocXPk-ruANY4pBSo_z7u2gSNgmAT-i_RLFk2HzEdNbONK_9sko4/s400/IMG_0080.JPG" /></a> Our pear tree, it's right on our property line but I call it ours.</div><div><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6ykOP2iK5fyARl9_JezlXCTi7GrbGRWDHcal2mFsXOKbSMOA1ATkEfKHqlAlIP5o3_Sg6E9epR57chqKZL-Uo9ZQ4COzayNbjblKb5mYxOiEWvIBkwTbhjn0cZe7-n5uK1N5Sd94LnOw/s1600/IMG_0074.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 335px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464411044710870306" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6ykOP2iK5fyARl9_JezlXCTi7GrbGRWDHcal2mFsXOKbSMOA1ATkEfKHqlAlIP5o3_Sg6E9epR57chqKZL-Uo9ZQ4COzayNbjblKb5mYxOiEWvIBkwTbhjn0cZe7-n5uK1N5Sd94LnOw/s400/IMG_0074.JPG" /></a>You may notice their are no pictures of Alyssa. She has an insane schedule and it seems like she is only home to sleep. She is up at 5a.m. every morning and on the bus by 6:30a.m. in school until 3, then right to track practice until 5:30, then she has a whole 30 minutes until softball practice which lasts until 8p.m. She loves every minute of it.

She asked readers if there was a vintage print, or a wall hanging that meant something to them. At the time I really couldn't think of any, but at Easter we found out that Dan's older brother and his wife are going to keep bees. Some people were a little freaked out by it, but I was and am so excited. When I was little my Great Grandma kept bees, I was so fascinated by the bees and I loved her bee boxes, to me they seemed magical. You have to admit it there is something fairytale-ish about the bee boxes, a queen lives in them. :)<br /><br />My Dad was a photographer for a while and I was his biggest fan. He took a picture of my Great Grandma's bee boxes and I loved it so much that I had it blown up and hung it on my bedroom wall. I love the shabby chic look of the old weathered bee boxes, and at that time GG had passed. She lived with us the last couple years of her life and she truly had become my best friend. I loved listening to her stories about growing up, she was such an amazing person. I still miss her and think of her often. But that picture my Dad took captured not only the beauty of the bee boxes, to me it represented my GG. I haven't seen that picture in years and wonder if it is lost somewhere at my parents house or if it is just lost forever.<br /><br />I also think that my obsession for photography was born with that picture. It was so much more that just an image on paper.<br /><br />I found this picture of bee boxes on-line, but they aren't my GG's bee boxes. I just wanted to have a pretty picture to go with this post.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJR7Age1n7nnMY4NJ61oxz-zOwNVvECfRxyNraO0BKDcrv_JtgEL_z7quGomMMeOutI7bQTXuszWW_0FdcDBLMFBhJ0woYF8dC_gWCVkI3ywgpaGVxnHvGASvFuvNG8rlkRvwg55qUm-g/s1600/honey-boxes.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 285px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 273px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457440094965234674" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJR7Age1n7nnMY4NJ61oxz-zOwNVvECfRxyNraO0BKDcrv_JtgEL_z7quGomMMeOutI7bQTXuszWW_0FdcDBLMFBhJ0woYF8dC_gWCVkI3ywgpaGVxnHvGASvFuvNG8rlkRvwg55qUm-g/s400/honey-boxes.jpg" /></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5395343888887970241.post-26868388528905492672010-04-01T04:13:00.001-07:002010-04-01T04:33:40.495-07:00It's April!!It's April and you know what that means!! <a href="http://creativescrappers.blogspot.com/">Creative Scrappers Birthday Bash </a>begins today!!<br /><br /><br />This is going to be a very inspiring month with 30 new <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">sketches</span> and 30 reveals.

She found this very cool top hat head band. A split second after she asked if I would buy it for her I was planning a photo shoot.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjskP_HP5WNLyH8y72sFxKm10EZQHyaVsC17iHgo2nYiT5k_5qnwlslD3CTyK2b08kPtCWgSDpD1DrP9JFGEt2sjEat6FtYSFSSg4dEy4kNCO51wzpw0_d5zJR0P6vbncslOiebzRvhcXc/s1600-h/brianna1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450397086038368514" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjskP_HP5WNLyH8y72sFxKm10EZQHyaVsC17iHgo2nYiT5k_5qnwlslD3CTyK2b08kPtCWgSDpD1DrP9JFGEt2sjEat6FtYSFSSg4dEy4kNCO51wzpw0_d5zJR0P6vbncslOiebzRvhcXc/s400/brianna1.jpg" /></a> I changed everything to black and white except the hat and her eyes. I haven't altered the color of her eyes at all. All my girls have those amazing blue eyes just like their daddy. The top hat reminded me of the Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland.

Grandma planned a small surprise party for him. He was home, and everyone started showing up, we didn't want to have him go away and then jump out and yell SURPRISE when he got home. That is probably not a great idea for an 80th birthday. I was able to get some great pictures of both Grandpa and Grandma, and I can't wait to get them printed and scrap them. Here is the card I made for him.<br /><br /><br /><p><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK3-_O_yyoJMPzW5-T9G3a0UW0PUeExjI4y3GHc0YKxV7PR8sc9bxElXT1SlOpwRUPcwPZMs9EmUXUU_gTmjD2uBORLPJUSzKEvk0agrtuvUaoy-R8vtfmpousJU4vqBLoqdyM_uGPCSQ/s1600-h/IMG_0011.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 344px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430735038839687122" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK3-_O_yyoJMPzW5-T9G3a0UW0PUeExjI4y3GHc0YKxV7PR8sc9bxElXT1SlOpwRUPcwPZMs9EmUXUU_gTmjD2uBORLPJUSzKEvk0agrtuvUaoy-R8vtfmpousJU4vqBLoqdyM_uGPCSQ/s400/IMG_0011.jpg" /></a> I just finished watching Julie and Julia, for the second time. I really like that movie. We all know that I can't cook very well and some of you even know what happened on Christmas day when I tried to bake an apple pie. (Let's just say that we had a flaming apple pie). I really hate not being able to cook very well, I have learned a few thinks from my SIL Nikki and there are a few things that I can now cook that involve more than just boiling water. I know that there is no way I could ever do what Julie Powell did and cook all of those Julia Child recipes, but inspired by the movie I am going to challenge myself to cook Julia Childs Boeuf Bourguignon Recipe for Sunday. I'll be sure to post pictures of it no matter how it turns out. </p><br /><br /><p>Speaking of posting pictures I promised to post a picture of our new table and chairs a long time ago.
