because we’re slackers….

and haven’t mowed our grass yet this week, I found some weeds sprouting up around our yard.  In all fairness, the husband is the one who mows the yard and he is in Nashville during the week.  So it usually has to wait until the weekend.  But lucky for me because I had something else…

for the love of macro

I don’t think it’s any secret that macro photography holds a special place in my heart.  In fact, I’d go so far as to say I might be mildly obsessed with it.  When the photography passion flares, that’s what I find myself snapping pics of the most – anything with small details to capture.  I’m…

more of spring

Seems Memphis has gotten it’s seasons mixed up a bit.  Back in January, we were having 70 degree weather.  Now that it’s nearly May and usually very warm & humid already, we’re stuck in the high 50s, low 60s.  And I don’t think Memphis is too thrilled about it.  I know I’m not.  I’m ready…

Our botanical gardens has this awesome section for kids called My Big Backyard.  On Good Friday, a friend of mine and I took the kids to it to spend the day and it was fantastic!  I did take several pics but only wanted to share just some of the more picturesque pics from our day…

Welcome to another edition of iPhoneography!  I can hardly believe it’s Friday already but I’m not complaining one bit.  Another busy weekend ahead for us but at least the husband is home and we’ll all be having fun.  Do you guys have anything great planned for the weekend?  I hope so – even if it’s…

new life

One of my most favorite things about spring is all the new life sprouting up.  The green leaves are as green as they get, unfolding for the first time.  We had a wet morning at the beginning of the week and I stepped outside with my camera when the rain let up so I could…

lil’ cuties

My little wildcat is a total girly girl.  She wants to wear a dress every single day now that it’s warm outside and almost refuses to put on shorts or pants of any kind.  I have to talk her down from the ceiling if I suggest such a thing.  We decided to go out to…

Hard to believe it’s that time again.  Okay, actually it’s not – this has been a very long week.  I’m SO happy to see Friday roll around finally.  Bring on the weekend!  I started out the week taking lots of pictures and then just kind of stopped.  I’m not sure what”s wrong with me.  I…

easter morn

IMG_2805W

Well, as far as pics go of the four of us it was a complete failure.  I got 2 shots because that’s all anyone would put up with.  We had rushed out the door that morning so pics had to wait until we got home from church.  Well, you can imagine the attention spans I…

easter goodness

Morning, y’all!  I have some pics to share with you today, if you can believe that.  ;)  We’ve just been so busy with end of the school year stuff and preparing to move, etc. that photography has kinda taken a backseat.  But Easter weekend was a big picture taking event.  I actually still have Easter…
