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!

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. 🦷

Nothing spectacular, but she was excited. Of course I had to film it so it was bokeh, cause it is so much prettier that way.
