Cowgirl Desiree

My precious little cowgirl, Desiree. She melts my heart!

The simple things in life

Best Friends who paint their toes funky colors!



Being beautiful and pregnant. Having your first baby.



Finding out that you're carrying a little girl.



Overwhelmed with love.



The joy of life.



The gender party cake and food.





The joy of being a ticklish, giggly six month old.





The joy of being an almost six month old chewing on toys!



The cuteness of two 4 year olds hanging out together.




Feels good to get away from the norm. Be happy. Be with family and friends. I wish more days were "The simple things in life".

Rope the Moon

I stood outside with my tripod and camera for nearly 45 mins sweating my buns off tonight to take a picture of the moon. Needless to say, I was not impressed with my outcome. However, it was a lot of fun!! :) I will definitely try again in a few days for the heck of it!! It was a lot harder than I thought.

I shot:

200mm
Manual
Raw
ISO 400
No Flash
f/6.3 - although I think I should have bumped it up to around f/8 - f/12

3.0 shutter speed
WB: daylight

I'm convinced!

I'm convinced that I am fool! Aha! I cannot keep up with doing a 365. What a shame. So, instead I will blog and do weekly photos of my life. It's all good! :)

Just so this post isn't completely boring or useless. Here is a picture of my sweet Desiree in serious concentration mode!
