Merry Christmas!

Filed Under: Photography

These are part of the flowers that Kenny got me the other night. They are gorgeous.

MerryChristmas copy

I made a clean edit, then added a texture from Kim Klassen’s newest texture set. I don’t normally buy textures but these were going to benefit her sweet dog Ben. He was hit by a truck and they had to do very expensive surgery. She has done so much for me by offering free textures & texture classes, it was the least I could do. Make sure you check them out, she does an amazing job. Anyways back to the edit. I set the blending mode to multiply. Then used coffee shops Color block-it action and added the Merry Christmas on.
and then, she {snapped}

I hope each and every one of you, my dear friends, have a very Merry Christmas! Enjoy your time with your family. This may be the last time that I post until after Christmas. Make sure you come back January 1st. I have a big reveal that I am so excited about. Also only 25 more followers until my big giveaway.

Forgot I never posted the photos from Prestyn’s Forgot I never posted the photos from Prestyn’s field trip to the pumpkin patch. His favorite part was feeding the bunny rabbits, he really wants one for a pet. His least favorite part was the corn maze. He ended up going in with his teacher and a few friends, they got lost and had to be rescued. He said he will never go in there again. 🤣

Another one bites the dust, for a total of 4 teeth Another one bites the dust, for a total of 4 teeth before she even turns 6. Craziness. The boys were much later losing their teeth. This one came out at school, so 2 at home and 2 at school so far.

She lost her top tooth this morning while brushing her teeth. All of a sudden she stopped then turned her head and spit the tooth out. I was cracking up. She keeps me on my toes.

Carsyn’s first day of school a few days late. Th Carsyn’s first day of school a few days late. The teachers say he seems happy to be back. This would technically be his 8th grade but we will probably hold him back a few years in middle school before we move him up to high school. Of course they are “virtual” tomorrow and possibly Friday because of the hurricane/tropical storm. Then Labor Day on Monday. So he probably won’t be back again until Tuesday.

He committed to working out and bulking this Summer and made some huge gains. Swipe to see his last day of school photo in June. We are so proud of him.
