Friday Fun

Filed Under: Family, Photography

I am so glad it is the weekend. Friday I am getting a manicure and pedicure with my mom while my dad watches the boys. Then Saturday my husbands cousin is getting married. You can see the engagement pictures I took here. I am so happy for her, they have been dating for 7 years.

Skywatch Friday

Yay for new leaves on the trees and blue skies!

Then after our nice sunny days, we have been getting a TON of rain.

I used my new lens for this. I took this from the inside of my van. I have been wanting to take this photo for a while. Only good thing about the rain.

Blogging from BoliviaLive Every Moment and then, she {snapped}

Our new four wheeler that Kenny has been bugging me about forever.

and Dustyn was laughing and smiling the whole time.

Snap&Share

Therapy has helped Carsyn so much. He is getting a little better and being a little more independent. So right now therapy is one of my favorite things. Oh and I wanted to add. Carsyn’s second tooth finally broke through two months after the first one came in.

    WOW Sarah!!! Love all of these. What I wouldn't give to have some rain. We got three inches of snow last night. Mind you it's supposed to go to 14 C today which I am guessing is maybe 65 F? I am ready for spring! Love, love, love the drops on the windshield shot! Awesome! Thank you for participating in Fabulous Friday!

    We have been getting a ton of rain too......kindof crazy for Florida. I love the water drop picture, but must admit I am having lens envy. I want a new one so badly, but I don't see it in my future any time soon.

    I like all of these...especially the ones with the water droplets. i check your blog frequently (I love it!), I just don't comment often because of the extra time it takes to fill out the email form. Have a great week. I enjoyed my visit!
  22. Marci says

    April 1, 2011 at 12:22 pm

    love the water droplets-so pretty! That is a serious 4-wheeler..the boys are going to have fun on that! I'm glad to hear that Carsyn is doing so well with his therapy-he'll just keep getting better with it. Seraphina has an evaluation with the occupational therapist next week--poor girl, sometimes I feel like she works more than she plays at this point!..oh well, for the greater good!

    Okay, I LOVE that shot of the rain on the glass. Fantastic! Dustyn's grin is hilarious. He looks like he is trying to hold it in, but can't. Thanks again for joining in the fun at Foto Friday. I love seeing you there. :)

    oooo, what a great 4 wheeler - we have a friend with a farm who lets the kids ride his gator - they absolutely love it!
  30. Dina @ 4 Lettre Words says

    LOVE your new ride. :) And, such lovely captures!
  31. Candice says

    April 1, 2011 at 7:33 am

    I adore the raindrop shots. So gorgeous. There's just something about rain that's so meditative. We have the same frog toy that Carsyn has in front of him. We've used it since Nate was probably 1 or 2 months old and he always liked it. He'll still play with it occasionally (we keep it in the playpen, which he's not in too often).

    April 1, 2011 at 7:27 am

    great group of shots, really nice catch of the rain drop
  33. Angee says

    March 31, 2011 at 11:58 pm

    I LOVE your raindrop shots. Carsyn looks so good sitting up (we have the same frog bar). Enjoy your mani/pedi. Just sit back close your eyes and enjoy the silence.

    Have fun tomorrow, I would love to get a mani/pedi - I really need to make the time. I have no excuse. Especially with summer coming. Have a wonderful weekend. Will you just be at the wedding or are you the photographer? I love the picture of the raindrops on the windshield. It's fantastic. It's so cool how you captured a reflection in the drops.

Our last 1st tooth loss. 😢 She is our youngest Our last 1st tooth loss. 😢 She is our youngest kid to lose their first tooth.

It’s been loose for awhile, but when she bit a lollipop at school today it became super loose and started bleeding. Then she was crying. I went to pick her up and by the time I had gotten there she had pulled it out, it had stopped bleeding, and she had stopped crying. Still can’t believe she is old enough to be losing teeth. 🦷
