Bubbles & Flowers

Filed Under: Family, Photography

Today I am taking Dustyn to VBS { which he did pretty good yesterday, yay!} then watching my friends daughter. Then picking Dustyn up and taking them both to Carsyn’s doctor to get his AFO’s. Then I am dropping them off with my mom while I do Hunter’s 1st Birthday Photo Shoot. It will be tomorrow night before I can catch up with you all. Hope you have a great Tuesday!

On our way home on Sunday we stopped at my mother-in-laws house. She had bout the boys bubbles. We went out back and she blew them, while Dustyn popped them and I took pictures. I was holding Carsyn so I wasn’t able to take a ton. These were just some of my favorites.

I love the tiny bubbles in this photo.

I love the color in this photo.

and had to do a close up bubble photo.

These were from my Aunt Norma’s yard that I took while we were there for Father’s Day. I went a little Pixel Bender crazy. ha ha. It just looked so neat with the water drops.

Simplicity: Colorful

Touch Up Tuesday

{Hover Over To See SOOC}

I used Pixel Bender on all of these shots. If you want to find out more information on how to do this check out Rosie’s Blog.

Photography love...

By the way check out the new buttons below that Whitney from The Paleo Child made me to match my design. If you would like to grab a new button you can do it at the bottom of my page. 🙂
