Day 21 and 22

Day 21: faceless self-portrait

I curled my hair for the first time since I chopped my hair off a year and a half ago. Brought back rodeo queen days.....aahhhh the smell of fried hair and hair spray...... I did remember WHY I don't curl it anymore, IT TAKES FOREVER!
Ready for my date with the love of my life:-)

Day 22: Hands

I took this one last weekend....

days 18,19 and 20

Day 18: your shoes
 I had great plans for this one but sick kids and 5 shoots in 5 days killed that plan.

most of the time you won't find me wearing any shoes, I hate shoes on my feet but I LOVE buying shoes....I hate socks too.....therefor my feet are nasty nasty. Thank goodness my husband spoils me with pedicures for every occasion.
So These are my shoes of the day. I love these shoes! I bought them on a garage sale for .50 when I was pregnant with Jaxon. My feet were so swollen I couldn't even get them on half way but I had hopes of wearing them the following year. I remember being SO excited about being able to wear these shoes. It was like a milestone that all the baby weight had melted away. On this day the shoes fell victim to a what activity.....

Day 19: Something Orange
Got to love a good Popsicle!

her first Popsicle I let her eat on her own......we got it backwards.....I think it was feeling good on her sore gums, darn teeth anyway!


Day 20: Bokeh
you say what is bokeh? Yes this was my thoughts too.
from what I read its the out of focus blur area of a picture that ADDs to the pictures. I wanted to do something like this:

 http://www.jennyowensphotography.com/blog/2011/01/nursery-photography-at-christmas/

but again another fail....

So this is what I got.
This is a REALLY bad picture, I mean all I focused on was a gross long strand of grass in my yard. But what you see in the background is the bokeh.
Here is another one.
I really love Bokeh, I really didn't know what it meant but I do love it. I LOVE LOVE this picture from a fellow photographer Lacey Voth
Ok so there you go. Enjoy!

Day 15,16 and 17

Weekends are a killer for getting these posted and I didn't do a single productive thing all weekend!

Day 15: Silhouette
These are so boring! So sorry!
 My curtain  in the bathroom, it is a fishing net that was hand made by Derek's grandpa, since he is  not here anymore it is pretty special.
 One of the roses D got me for having such a crummy weekend with a sick sick baby girl, what Great guy!
 Now this is a silhouette! I can't wait for their wedding on the lake at sunset in a few short months!
One of my sweet friends and her family on their ranch North of North Platte, taken last summer.

Day 16: Long Exposure
I had these great plans to do sparklers and try out the steps from this call here I found her because of my sweet friend blogger Kim She has some great blogs! But I guess I will have to try those another day.
So This is what I got

There are these really cool landscape pictures where they expose the picture for like 5-10 seconds and the water looks like glass. I think they are really cool so that's what I tried to do with the flowers.....I'll keep working on that. And jj on his bike is boring but it works.

Day 17: Technology
I struggle with technology, the technology I've been working on the most lately is this one,
My camera. I'm getting better but not there yet, just got a new flash unity from AlienBees LOVE it! but it's a little overwhelming. working on getting lightroom and photoshop along with a mac.......yes a mac! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Any guidance in this area is welcome!
So theirs the weekend pictures for you! I'll hopefully be back with today's later!
Happy Monday all!

Day 12 and 13

Day 12 Sunset:
Yeah so I wasn't awake for it and it was rainy and cloudy anyway so I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have been good anyway. So here are some I've taken within the last month!
The Top one is a bride and groom I have in Sept. Taken at his parents ranch and the 2nd one is the sunset in CO from 4th of July weekend. I really couldn't tell you exactly where in Colorado we were but This was the shot from the high way going 65 with a point and shoot camera. This picture isn't half as pretty as the real thing. I love sunsets!!!!
