Cute Kid Pics

I haven't posted here in a while, so I thought I'd put up some snaps of the girls. These are about 3 years old, the girls are around 2 1/2 and just-turned-4. We were living with Hubby's grandpa, facilitating his staying home until he passed away. It looks like these might have been taken just after he passed, December of 2001 (Wow, has it been that long?!). I was playing around with black and white film in my Advantix camera. I just love the way black and white captures a moment.

Strawberry Pie

Sis made this beautiful pie. Yes, she does have OCD, and it is a beautiful thing to behold sometimes!

Easier Photo Posts

Well, Blogger has added an image button, so we don't have to go through Hello and Picasa all the time. Now that I've gotten that figured out, they change it! Not that I'm complaining, it will make multiple-picture posts so much easier -- no more cutting and pasting from separate posts. Here's some random stuff.

Ketchup Boy

This is what happens when you give a 20-month-old his own plate with hotdog circles and ketchup to dip in. WHAT was I thinking?!

Irises

Inside the Iris

Fuzzy Yellow

I just love irises. One of my favorite paintings is 'Irises' by Monet. I have a giant cheapo framed print from Meijer on my bedroom wall, maybe someday I can get a nicer framed one.

I think I need to white-balance my camera, these flowers are really much more purple-y than they are showing up here. They're not blue at all, but a beautiful deep lavender. Or maybe it's my monitor. What color do they look to you?

Mugging

6-yr-old Photography

Soccer Practice

Ready, Set, Go!

This looks really cool full-sized on my monitor. Picasa has a neat cartoon effect (I think it was Picasa, I have a couple of photo-editing programs). It was just an experiment, but I like it!
