52 Week Project 38

Okay, well I have kind of cheated this week.

I wanted to use these pictures a couple of weeks ago, but didn't, and haven't used my camera this week. So, I am using them this week.

The first one was taken on Jaxon's first birthday. It was the only good one I got of him. He was quite uncooperative. :o( The second one was taken the next day ... LOL ... can you tell he was still not wanting to have his picture taken?!?!?! :D

ISO 400 ~ 51mm ~ 1/100 ~ 2.8 ~ PP in LR

ISO 100 ~ 24mm ~ 1/200 ~ 2.8 ~ PP in LR

52 Week Project 37

I wanted to play with my camera and instead of asking the kids I thought I would turn to our dog, Kacey.

She is a funny girl. She was sitting still and all, but wouldn't look up at me. I noticed that she was staring straight at her ball, which was on the ground in front of her. She refused to look away. So ... to get her to at least pick up her head, I set her ball up on the banister! LOL She still wouldn't look at me, but at least now her face was in view! ;o)

ISO 200 ~ 43mm ~ 1/160 ~ 2.8 ~ PP in LR

52 Week Project 36

It was a week of birthday's this week.

Josh was on the 7th, Shelby was on the 8th, and Jaxon was on the 9th.

Technically Jax's picture wasn't from this week - we took it on Saturday last week - but I wanted to put it up. Josh's picture was taken this week on his birthday. My sister in law was kind enough to make him a birthday cake & my mom made some AWESOME spaghetti sauce for a great spaghetti dinner in honor of Josh's birthday. We had a wonderful time!

Thanks everyone who helped make it possible!

52 Week Project 35

Okay - so I am a day late. But here are some pictures from last week. My mom took us to Balboa park to visit the Ruben H. Fleet Museum and we detoured to the Museum of Man. It was a wonderful Thursday in Balboa Park!!!

I didn't really tweak any of the photos ... I just wanted to share them with you.

It was so much fun to watch all of the kids play and learn! Jax was even able to get in on the fun! He discovered the passing his arm through the mist cause a 'difference'!

This one was plain fun! Not to mention that I have stood at this same wall doing the same thing as a little girl! It was great to see all of the colors at one time! The kids were troopers as well - they held their position as still as they could so I could get this one with out the flash! ;o)

This one is one of my favorites. Not only did I

have fun doing this myself ... before the kids came over ... I love how the mist looks like a jelly fish.

Another fun one. As you can see this is modeling the earths magnetism. It was fun to drop the iron dust onto the globe and watch it stick.

Well that is a glimpse into our day. We had so much fun and look forward to many more fun filled days at Balboa Park! ;o)

Blessings!
