Oh, the joy of BUBBLES!!!!

Can't you just feel the excitement! Oh, to be two again!

Krista loves bubbles! I know these aren't the greatest pics, but it's a peek into our daily routine.... yes, that's right, we do bubbles almost every day!

MOMMA'S GIRL!!

People have said that Emma and I are alike in many ways. We are similar in one way for sure; we are both momma's girls. Anyone who knows Emma will tell you that she is happiest when in the arms of her mother, and mom quite enjoys having her there (most of the time).

BEST BUDS!!

These two are somethin' else. They are SOOOO much alike and just think the world of each other. Daniel's family always teases him about his pride, so I guess it would make sense that he'd love someone that was just like him.... Come to think of it, he and I are a lot alike too--hmmm. Hehe, just teasin' ya honey.

Technicalities!

I know these are not "technically" that great, but her little face is just too cute! I couldn't resist!

Seeing Red

OOPS! No one told me that sitting next to a bright red wall would cast a red tint over ones' entire face-- hehe. I guess that's why they call it practice, eh? Well, she's gorgeous anyway!

Aren't I LUCKY!!!!

I have such gorgeous models to play with! There are plenty more of these that I can't wait to play with, so stay tuned! I am noticing that the color on some of these is a little off, especially next to the red wall (getting a strange reflection). Any feedback you could give me would be much appreciated!

OOOH LA LA!

Kay, I can't take credit for this one; Chersten actually captured this gorgeous picture (I just photoshoped it a little). I think it's safe to say that Karen finally got the "sexy look" down!

All Smiles!

So I did a fun little photoshoot with my gorgeous sister-in-laws yesterday; they were such good sports and I hope they had as much fun as I did. We tried to get Karen to do the "sexy look", and as you can see, all we got was giggles. But man, ain't she so darn cute anyway!

Cutest EVER!

These two are the cutest and best of people! They were kind enough to let me take their pics. as a birthday present for Dad--but DON'T TELL b/c it's a SURPRISE!!!!!!

I like this picture, but somehow the proportions seem off to me. Should I crop in tighter?

Cherstie-pie

Isn't she GORGEOUS! I'm afraid I haven't done her justice. This is my first attempt at back-lighting and I can safely say I have no clue what I'm doing... oh well.
Other than the fact that she is much more beautiful than I, Chersten and I are sooo much alike (it's scary sometimes). I so love being around her and feel up-lifted every time I am.

T-DAWG

This guy is sooo cute and SUCH a ham! He cracks me up! Mom really liked the last one; boys will be boys.

Same pic., two very different crops

Which do you prefer?

It's my blog and I can blog what I want to!

We went to feed the ducks on Sat. and it was just sooo beautiful, I couldn't resist snapping some shots. So, I hope this isn't silly, and I hope you all enjoy nature as much as I. These are by no means professional grade pics., in fact, that second to last one was taken by my nine yr. old bro-in-law (he's 9 going on 30; I think he wants to be a little bit of everything when he grows up).

My Girls!

Just sittin' around in the kitchen.

Just my Em

Emma is my little Momma's girl. I can't help but melt when I see that big gummy smile of hers'.

Second attempt

This is a second attempt; it's processed darker and with less blue. I think it probably looks much better than the ones below? In general, do you like these pics bnw or color?

My little angels!

My wonderful, talented, and, of course, beautiful sister Anna took these precious pics back in Jan. She shot in raw, so I was really proud of myself because I figured out how to alter them (as raw photos) and then turn them into jpegs. However, I'm afraid that once again they look great to me, but awful on other computers. I just wanted to confirm that with you before I tried it again.

Which one?

I think I know the answer to this question already, but wanted to know which black and white version you like best. And while you're at it, please let me know which pic. you like better too. THANKS!

BEAUTIFUL BELLA. Here's my adorable niece, Bella. This is my second attempt at fixing this pic. Hopefully it looks better now. I won't know until I get on someone else's computer--ARG!

Here's my sweet Em. It was a little dark when I took these, so they're not the greatest, but her cuteness makes up for my poor photo. skills. So, I pose the same old Question: how do they look to you? On my comp. they're quite dark, but I did that on purpose, hoping that they look just right for everyone else.

Kay, so I looked at these (the original post consisted of just the first 3 pics) on Jenn's computer and # 2 and 3 looked really green, so I tried to add more red and ended up with # 4 and 5. Do they look better or worse; I can't tell. ARGGG!
