On Friday I was doing laundry, as I often do during the day. I stepped on the pile of dirty laundry on the floor and found that the clothes were soaking wet. Great!–I thought. The washing machine has a leak. I cleared up the entire area around the washer and dryer, used a bunch of…

Give Me Your Best Shot #16
In looking through my photos from this week, I discovered that I had more than my usual number of candids of people outside my family. Kind of fun for me! That’s one thing I love about having a big ‘ol zoom. I can sit in one spot and inconspicuously snap pictures of people in their…
Fix-It Friday–Little Precious
This week’s Fix-It picture from I Heart Faces is a great photo to start out with, in my opinion. The biggest problem for me was that it had a lot of noise. So in addition to brightening and boosting, I tried to reduce the noise. Here’s the original: I kept things simple (for me) and…
AJ’s Party
Could I really have let a week go by without sharing pictures from AJ’s birthday party? Impossible. Have I really been that busy? AJ’s party was perfect for me. We packed the food and the presents and the kids (and the bubbles. Don’t forget the bubbles) across the street to the park. The kids played…
You Capture. Family.
I love joining in with I Should Be Folding Laundry’s weekly You Capture challenge. It gives my photos some direction. Something to look for through the week. Except this week. I don’t think I thought about the theme once. Oops. Thank goodness I take a bajillion pictures and still have some to share. This first…
Pooh! Rain to a Bear is Nothing at All….
We’ll picnic here and let it fall!(from one of my favorite Berenstain Bears Books) We didn’t let anything as silly as rain ruin our Memorial Day picnic fun. I sat under a tent with friends and enjoyed good food and chatting….and the kids ran around and got WET! A wet, slippery moon bounce? Who could…
Tuesday Tribute–Beth and Ezra
Today, I am writing about a friend of mine–a mother who just discovered that her 2 year old son has cancer. I could tell you all her story, but it means so much more coming from her mouth. Read my friend Beth’s story of her sweet little Ezra, who just turned 2 on May 23rd….
I Heart Faces–Silhouettes
Back in October, I met my sister and her little family in the banks of the Potomac River just outside of DC for some family pictures at sunrise. Andrea asked if I would take some silhouette shots as the sun was rising. I had never attempted to take silhouettes before, but was pretty pleased with…
Kim’s Kool Kolumn
HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY EVERYONE! For today since it’s Monday I thought I would do a NOT ME MONDAY, and I thought I would do a post on funny things that people (including me) in my family have said, even though I wouldn’t say this, NOT ME. For those of you who didn’t see the first…
