Sunday Love / Photo Challenge

We attended our nieces graduation party yesterday.

It was hot!

BUT, they had the most adorable decorations, all hand-made that I just

couldn't stop looking at, admiring and taking pictures of...

{string wrapped around a tree, clothespins to hold pictures}

{mason jars filled with sand & little tea lights}

{tin cans used at vases}

I played around with one shot I took and made this:

What do ya think?

the paper mama -- Spring!

What says 'spring' more than picking some dandelions beautiful wild flowers?!

Abbie just loves picking these out of the yard and then blowing them everywhere.. her Daddy? Not so much!! lol! I think its cute!

We love playtime! (and Photo Challenges!)

love.. love.. LOVE being outside! Plus, I'm much better at outside pictures than inside pictures right now so YAY for nice weather!

We played outside for a bit tonight when the girls got home. I couldn't resist grabbing the camera to capture all the fun we had! :) And yes, I even played hop scotch as well. Jaelyn almost has the concept of playing but Abbie.. well she just looks cute jumping up & down on the blocks, haha!

Jaelyn loves her toes painted and now Abbie does, too! I love that they can be such girly girls at times. I see Mommy-Daughter pedicures in our future!!

Happy Weekend!! Hope you get to be outside wherever you are!!!

***Have you entered my giveaway? You better hurry... it ends TONIGHT!***

ADELAIDE ACCESSORIES GIVEAWAY

Photo Challenge ---- Yellow

I know I've been slacking in here but between a yucky sickness going around here and just being plain busy, my computer has been collected a little bit of dust!

I hear snow is in the forecast for this week so maybe I'll get a snow day & get all caught up on some stuff?? haha.. not sure if that is bad or good!?

I hope some of my friends in Texas has enjoyed a bit of 'winter'!! Glad to see some of you may have even gotten SNOW!! Yay!

Ok, well I've decided to join in on another fun photo challenge. This isn't a new picture but when I saw the theme was "yellow", I immediately thought of my little bumble bee!

This was Abbie's Halloween costume this past year. It was perfect for her since she is quite the little bee always buzzing around. She was at a point where she REFUSED to let me take her picture. Was not having it! So, this was a result. My bumble bee with a little attitude. haha.. I still love this picture as it just shows her personality to a tee!!

Please be sure to go check out all of the other fabulous entries!!

Photo Challenge: Beauty

So this super cute friend Angel Perry is hosting a Photo Challenge

with the theme of "Beauty".

{Her rendition of beauty}

The lucky *random.org picked* winner will be receiving

a super cute scarf from her compliments of the lovely Boubo!

AND even more exciting, the winner will have two scarfs

to choose from!!

Well, we all know I have a ton of beauty pics to choose from beings I have 2 very beautiful daughters (not that I'm partial or anything!). But this picture makes me think of beauty every time I look at it. I love the sun reflecting off Jaelyn's face, the serene background with all of the green... well, it's just downright pretty ok!?

 

So I'm thinking, YOU should hop on over to Angel Perry's blog and link up to this first time photo challenge of hers and spread the love. She is super sweet & super cute so it's hard to resist!
