This week’s theme over at I Heart Faces is BOYS! A very fitting theme for Father’s Day. I have found that there are some photo challenges that I know exactly which picture to use. Other times, I search through my picture folders until I find something acceptable. And then other times I don’t have anything…

When Animals Attack
A word from Lolli: This post was written by my husband, CandyMan. I haven’t seen him enjoying anything lately quite as much as tonight, when I suggested that he write today’s story in a blog post.

Foto Friday–Shutter Speed
I was at a double baby shower for two of my friends the other evening, and one of my good friends, Lis, was taking pictures of the gorgeous display of food (you know the kind that looks too good to eat?!). Lis was having a hard time getting the lighting just right, so she and…

Goin’ Buggy
When you have four kids who have all attended the same elementary school, you tend to run into a few repeats. The same field trips, sometimes the same teachers, the same projects…and often the same presentations. Last week, I got to watch my 3rd performance of Goin’ Buggy. This time, Twizzler was the star. The…
I’m Out for Nuggets today….
I was asked last week to do a guest post for my friend over at Chicken Nuggets of Wisdom. Please stop by there today to read my Summer Survival list….and then come back here and tell me what your best summer tip is. How do you make your summer enjoyable? I recommend that you browse…
I Heart Faces – Sepia (Kids)
Let’s hear it for sepia! I love using sepia tones in my photo editing. I actually use it quite a bit. So it wasn’t too hard for me to find a picture or two to use for this week’s I Heart Faces sepia theme. To see more sepia toned photos, click on the button below….
