Getting Better

So Dave gave me a Nikon D90 last year for my past 3 birthdays. With that I was supposed to take a class but just haven't ever done it. This month my college friend, photographer Kristen is teaching some classes, so I decided to do it even though I would probably miss 30% of the classes. I've learned SO much! Here are a few shots where I was in manual mode.

Helps to be on the field :)

I don't think this was manual mode, but such a great shot!

I will post more later. I have some great shots from my girls' weekend in New York!

These Kids Make Me Laugh

There are so many days where I think "I should be sure to write that down!" Well tonight I'm going to do it! A few from today:

Callie while I was on the phone:
I ended my conversation with "okay, I'll see you then."
Before I finished, Callie burst out with a loud, "BYE!"
The funny part is that she just started saying Bye correctly today...and she knows how to use it!

Belle with her cousin Paige in the car:
"I like sand. Don't you like sand too?"
"Yeah, I like sand, but no sand at my house."
"I have sand at my house. That's why I moved to that house."

Belle going to bed:
"Mom, your belly is getting so big! It's a girl, but I kinda wanted a boy. It's okay though. Sometimes I don't like boys. Liza at school got a scratch."
"Oh, okay, good night."
"Mom..."
"Yes Belle?"
"Boys are distracting me."
Wow...already...haha
