This or That Thursday

Filed Under: Photography

I hope you all are having a wonderful week. It has been a busy one around here. Kenny was home from work Monday and Wednesday, so that is always nice but makes it difficult to blog and blog visit. I also want to tell you all how THANKFUL I am for your sweet comments on this post. I can not wait to write more for you all. Look for an 18 month update for Carsyn Friday. 18 months really?? I can not believe he is going to be a year and a half on 11/11/11. The only time that will happen!  First I need to get some photos of him. He he. Maybe more owl hat photos with his Picky Sticky sticker.

Anyways some more photos from our walk in the woods. These are for Shades of Autumn brown.

     and then, she {snapped}Grace Loves the BeatlesPhotobucket THEDAILYWYATT

I could not, not edit this photo for Misty this week. She is one of my favorite photography bloggers. I had a lot of fun with this. I warmed it up a little bit and added some texture. I also edited out the toy in the front. It was distracting me. Then resized and sharpened for the web.

Our tiny BIG Life

    All lovely, but I really love that first photo! I miss hiking like crazy! Our only local trail is paved and has an open field to one side... I miss being lost in the woods! And your edit is lovely! Has a wonderful warm, autumn feel!

    Ah, your photos...your photos are never a waste of time to look at. Particularly love you first shot and the one of the ducks. I also want to credit you for this journey you're putting yourself through at present, within of course your most challenging journey you're going through. I expect you may say you didn't have a choice but you did and you've shown strength & wisdom just in the act of trying to find answers and the 'best' way of coping with the hardship. I'm a special ed teacher and one of the aspects i know hits the heart is exactly as you wrote the other day about seeing other children carsyn's age, seamlessly easily achieving different developmental stages. I really appreciated your words in that post so thank you for that.

    November 10, 2011 at 11:11 am

    You are such an amazing photographer. My hope is to someday be like you and be able to capture the color, texture and feeling of it all. You must live in in a beautiful place, too :)
  26. Gina says

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. 🦷
