I added a soft light layer to it. Then ran Pioneer Woman’s action Lovely. I really love the bright, cheery feel to it. It has been really cold here in NC and we have been getting snow. I went back to my archives for this because I am dreaming of Spring. To me this is simply beautiful and makes me very happy.

    WOW wow wow!! What a great picture!!

    To answer your question on my blog- I only have the kit lens it came with right now. I was debating on getting the zoom 55-200mm lens or a prime lens (35mm) that has great reviews on Amazon, supposed to be good for low light. I'm new to this so any advice would be great!! Speedlight will probably come later on!

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. 🤣

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.
