Photo of the Day: Silly Kitty

My husband and I met a new friend on our walk a few nights ago – a very friendly, affectionate cat.

Photo of the Day: Monkey Hands

Monkey bars were most definitely not my favorite piece of playground equipment growing up. In fact, I couldn’t even hold myself up to make my way across them. A couple of days ago, my husband and I took a moment on our walk to play on the monkey bars at a nearby park since there were no kids in sight. Much to my satisfaction, I can now monkey across them. (Is that the right verbiage?)

One of the benefits of our new house is the beautiful walking trail and creek right behind our house. Who knew Missouri could be this pretty?

Photo of the Day: Child’s Pose

For the last few weeks as I’ve been doing yoga more regularly, I’ve noticed the narrow focus your eyes have when you’re in child’s pose and look down toward your feet. Because you’re looking at something so close, very little is in focus. Depth of field in photography works much the same way, so I attempted to capture it with my camera. How did I do? Does what I’m saying even make sense? Am I weird for comparing yoga to photography?

I’m proud to say this pansy is part of my flower garden. It’s the first time I’ve been able to say that, since this is first year I’ve had a house and a garden. Here’s to keeping it alive!!

Here are a few photos from Thursday’s newborn/family session. I’ve had the privilege of photographing this family from engagement to their first and second children, and I couldn’t be happier. What a beautiful family!

I couldn’t wait to post this cute photo of Ellie & Annie during Annie’s newborn portraits yesterday. Little Annie, despite making her way into the world a few weeks early and only being a couple of weeks old, was determined to stay awake through the entire photo shoot! I can’t wait to share more photos with you tomorrow.

Annie gets sweet kisses from her big sister before she’s on the move again.

In case yesterday’s photo wasn’t bright enough, today I bring you to the center of a bright yellow tulip.

My husband, dad, and I had tickets to the Royals baseball game last Friday. You may have seen my grumblings about the snow, or if you live in the Midwest you were probably grumbling with me. The game was postponed and rescheduled for Monday at 1:10 p.m. Unfortunately my husband couldn’t go since he’s a teacher, but thanks to my accumulated personal days, I was able to go with my retired parents. For once, the weather was perfect. Despite the fact that we lost in the 11th inning to the White Sox, it was actually a really exciting game … for baseball. 🙂
