Parade

I like this picture. It captures a moment. I was really excited for the parade and more importantly for Penelope's reaction to the parade. Penelope was totally overstimulated and looked like that most of the parade. She still loved it but it was a lot to take it. That being said, its not really a good picture. I was a test shot I had my mom take for me. When I come home and look at these on my laptop I feel like I am able to pick out what is wrong with them and how they could be better. I like critiquing myself. Is that weird? I am a person that would rather not try than fail at something. I miss out on a lot of life because of this character flaw but by taking pictures I have hope that I will someday succeed.

Favorites

Penny's favorite toy. It was Justin's when he was a baby.

Tragedy

I accidentally deleted all the good pictures of my child on her 11 month birthday. So here is a noisy blurry disapointing picture. A lesson learned. I guess this is all part of the journey.

Santa's Little Helper

I am so mad her face is not in focus. I have another one that I may switch out for this one.

Christmas Time is Here

This takes pretty much no skill but it makes me so happy to look at

I was laying in bed and realized I had not taken my pictures for today. I got out of bed in the middle of the night and took a shot of our Christmas tree. 

I love this ornament

And Christmas begins!

We attended the Lexington Candle Light Processional tonight. Shooting after sunset was a new experience.

HAPPY THANKSGIVINGANNIVERSARY!!!

Today, was Thanksgiving and my parents 27th wedding anniversary. I am thankful for a lot of things this year but their example of love and service to each other is always at the top of my list. I am so blessed to come from a family with parents who love each other so deeply. It shapes my marriage everyday. We took a family wobble up to the top of their mountain after eating a sinful amount of food. My Dad is terrible at posing for a camera. Thankfully, he was making fun of me the entire time resulting in the mischievous glint in his eyes. We crashed a herd of cow's Thanksgiving and had a grand old time. 

My favorite turkey

These cows were a totally intrigued with the herd of humans that showed up for dinner
