I finally shot some "me" photos!

No, not photos OF me, but FOR me!! I haven't really shot anything for myself in a while, so last week a friend and I took our kids to this AWESOME Children's Garden near us. I'm so glad D introduced me to this place!! The kids had so much fun playing, and I had some fun playing too! I just took these with my (cheapo) zoom lens set to the "macro" setting, which isn't truly macro, but I had fun anyway. Can't wait till my new macro gets here and I can try a whole new bunch of ideas out!!

Pretty red flower that just pops against the sea of green...

Butterfly that loved these purple flowers. I didn't even realize I got the bee in the photo until I loaded it on the computer... I was so focused on the butterfly I wasn't paying attention to anything else!!





My very own "Toothless Wonder"... always willing to flash me that gap-toothed smile. Just love him to pieces! He still eats corn on the cob, if you can believe that!






And his friend, Sweet T... just love her too! She had the toothless grin going on in the spring :)



And all the little kids up on top of a BIG hill... love this one!





So don't forget to take time for fun... for the kids, for yourself, and everyone will be happier :)
