No blow-by-blow today from the weekend. We spent a lot of time at home, some at the hospital to visit Scott’s dad and went out for little excursions like a milkshake treat at Cook Out while Emma was on a play date and we went bike-riding at the Riverwalk Sunday. I had to work some on Saturday. And of course, I managed to get out late last night to catch The Hunger Games.
I also spent a lot of time Saturday taking online photography lessons from ShootFlyShoot. I want to dedicate a whole post to it when I’m done but thought I’d share some pictures I took over the weekend while trying to practice on Manual mode. Yep, the big scary M!
I love baby leaves on our tree.
Lexi giving the “I’m watching you” signal.
Scott treated the girls to a soccer and volleyball this weekend
Emma is obsessed with inch worms right now.
We had nasty storms in Charlotte this weekend and I just had to capture this sky with the sun behind me. It’s not the most aesthetically pleasing picture every but isn’t that blue-gray sky crazy against the sunlit green trees?
My flowers are coming back around my mailbox. Love that I don’t have to buy new flowers this year!
I love that you are learning to shoot manually! It is not easy but so worth the effort! 🙂 I also love all your pictures! The one of the sky is intense!
came across this post and thought of you and your family 🙂

Thanks, Niki, just downloaded it!
That pic of Lexi “I’m watching you” is hilarious. And tell Miss Emma I love her creative manicure. Don’t you miss being young enough to play around with fun colors like that? I do!
Well, sometimes I still do 🙂
Great job on the photos, the subjects really pop! I love the tiny inchworm and the amazing sky.
Thanks, Jen!
