Well, second week in a row of hooking up with i heart faces and I'm still loving it! This week's challenge is Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes. Basically, a pic of anything except a face. This one really isn't that hard for me considering my obsession with taking at least one pic of feet during a session. Even if I don't focus in on them, I generally crop something down to showcase the feet, hands, etc. I love close crops like that and angles that are completely different and unexpected. The h...

I'm so into i heart faces. Their photography tips and tutorials and their photographer spotlights are all so inspiring. I'm absolutely loving it and how their weekly challenges are already getting me to stretch my photography muscles. Friday fun over at i heart faces is called Fix-It Friday. One image is edited by all of the contributors to i heart faces and readers can edit the same photo to show off and practice their own skills. Being as I'm an editing whore and totally love the chance to ... Continue reading ...

Whether you have children or not, whether they are in the Texas school system or not, you should care about their education, or lack thereof. We should all care. We should be outraged that our country's children aren't given more, our country's teachers aren't treated better, our country's education system isn't being nurtured the way it should be. Funding and teacher pay is a joke. Our kids are absolutely getting "left behind", forgotten about and pushed aside for other things. This doesn't ... Continue reading ...
This is my first time to participate with i heart faces. I'm pretty excited and will definitely be linking up with them again. Every week they have a photography challenge. This week is to take a picture with your cell phone.  You know, I'm not really someone that uses my cell camera all that often. Even now with my fancy schmancy new phone and cool apps, I just don't use it that much. For the occasional grammar blunder on something in a store or when it's necessary for me to send a pic of the... Continue reading ...
It's been a while since I joined the lovely little Mama M. for her 5 Question Friday! Hello 5QF, I've missed you. The questions....1. Have you worn the same outfit more than one day in a row?
2. If you had to choose any LARGE city to live in, which would it be?
3. Fly or drive with the kids on vacation?
4. What is your idea of "spring cleaning"?
5. What is the best book you have ever read?
1. Have you worn the same outfit more than one day in a row?Oh most certainly. Isn't that a rite of passage f... Continue reading ...

Happy Valentine's Day! The school project got finished. Two days before it needed to be! We may be a family of procrastinators but, when it comes to holidays and gift giving, we have a hard time waiting for the actual day. So, VDay has come early around here. 0007 got his gifts Friday and he showered us with gifts today. Yes, he totally took my breath away this year. I was so not expecting what he got me. For years I have happily worn my beautiful wedding ring. I've loved it and still do. He ... Continue reading ...

I made a big mistake recently. I let Snappy learn how to play computer games. She loves it. And she's good at it. And the little turd will probably need her own computer soon or I'll never get any work done again. Not that I've minded so much the last few days. I mean, if she's on my computer it does give me ample time to continue watching Bones, my newest tv show find and obsession. But, truly, the kid is awful at sharing!
My second mistake was letting her realize that my new phone has games ... Continue reading ...

My blogging seems to have fallen low on my to-do list lately. I'm certainly busy but, it's not very exciting stuff. Not boring...just...mundane. It's cleaning and working and rearing unruly children and fretting over the weather. None of which make for exciting blog entries. I hate that I've pawned off so many photo posts as real blog posts but, I'm hoping y'all are enjoying the pics. We're supposed to have snow here tonight and tomorrow. In South Texas. It hasn't snowed here since TRex's fir... Continue reading ...
