I have been playing

I have all these great photography tools that I often do not get to play with. So enjoy!





Notice the people in the background missing; that is right; I am the bomb!!!


I love the way old photographs look, so I might just start playing with this filter more often!


Oh, and then we have my niece, doesn't she always make her way into my pictures! Because she is so stinkin' cute!

Look, looking, pumpkin!

This past weekend a friend of mine said she was coming to town and would love to meet me at the pumpkin patch! Well, HECK yea I would! It is a rarity that one my friends venture out to my neck of the woods so I was totally excited! Plus I have been wanting to take Emma out to the pumpkin patch for some time now. Double Bonus! One of the cutest things out there was the pumpkin hunt. We got to ride a tractor tailor out to the Christmas tree fields, where they had "hid" pumpkins for the kids to find. Emma found her first pumpkin in one of the trees so she proceeded to start picking up pumpkins and putting them back in their proper place. And as she was doing this she was saying look, looking pumpkins! Telling us she was looking for pumpkins!

Jonah found one too!!!


My niece Harlie joined in on the fun too!



Claire was more interested in her stroller... such the life of a 9 month old...




Then it was time to take your pumpkin and decorate them...........


Then Emma played in the Maze!


She won a pigs nose!


Next, Emma took them for a ride on the tractor..... And Harlie became a model....



The general census - Everyone had a good time!

AWESOME DEAL!

I just purchased Emma a super cute halloween costume at this website! AND, it was an amazing price!


Halloween Costumes

Promise I will post pictures of Emma in her adorable outfit!

Last night I was watching one of my favorite shows currently on TV called Glee. I really enjoy this show all of the cast is extremely talented and charming. Last night, I was a bit disappointed while watching my favorite TV show. I am so glad Emma is too young to understand exactly what was going on. I foresee a lot of Disney and PG rated channels in our near future. On prime time TV last night, there was a girl who lifted a boy out of a wheelchair and laying him down on the bed and her then straddling him and him loosing his virginity to her. I understand that these are real issues that happen in a High School environment and maybe I am just being naive thinking that these are inappropriate at 7pm on a network channel. Or maybe I am just becoming Conservative as a I age? No, that can't be it... at least not for another ten years... I hope. I do have the power to turn the channel but I truly enjoy the show. I am so torn! I would just like to be able to watch a TV show that does not cross any boundaries that is appropriate for my family to watch. And I don't want to be one of those people that complains about everything! Or even worse one of those that complains to the network or writes a blog about it! Darn it, I guess by writing this I am... DOH!

Waiting, waiting on the world to change...

Emma Developments

Emma turns two in just a couple of months, very exciting! So, in the news, Emma has lost the Paci, she no longer requires it for anything. She just told her one day that it was "all gone"... and she believed us! Who knew it was going to be so easy!

A couple of weeks ago her cousin Harlie taught her how to jump. She took a great liking to jumping! Now she has learned how to do the frog leap. She will "ribette" and all! She loves pretending she is a frog.

She has also started putting her stuffed animals down for naps. Although, occasionally I will open a dresser drawer and find a teddy bear stuffed in there. It is a good thing she is not going to be a baby sitter any time soon...
