Week 10 - Project 365

PROJECT 365 - A PHOTO A DAY FOR A FULL YEAR

Day 64 - Attending the MD Renaissance Festival was once a tradition of ours - but it's not the easiest place to push a stroller around. Today was our first visit in many years - the tradition is now back on - it was a great day!

Day 65 - One of my favorite facebook pages is Adobe Photoshop and today is self-portrait using a mirror - thanks for the idea Lightroom.

Day 66 - I photographed this stack of hay back in August (thankfully no grasshoppers this time around) and just the other day my husband was saying that the stack was going to fall ...

Day 67 - A goose, a snail, a cat and a hawk ... that's what my girls saw in today's clouds.

Day 68 - I was just thinking that it was time to get rid of our very weathered pinwheels ... but blowing in the wind they are still quite beautiful.

Day 69 - You never know what a day will bring - today it was a little bird in the house - who is now safely back outside.

Day 70 - This little lady is not one of my own but the next best thing. She's tiny but don't let that fool you - she's quite a dare devil.

Maryland Renaissance Festival

Before starting my family- attending the Renaissance Festival was a yearly tradition. I even worked the festival one year as a Sign Language Interpreter - which I enjoyed tremendously. Once the girls started coming along, attending the festival became quite a challenge ... it's not stroller friendly (that's my opinion anyways). This year - since all 3 of our girls are now completely mobile - we took a chance at the festival. It's was fantastic and a photographer's dream at that (well, at least mine). Spectacular faces, good music and food, wonderful entertainment .... I loved it all!

Harvest Festival

This past Saturday we attended the annual Harvest Festival at the Agricultural History Farm Park - it's one of our favorite family traditions. It's always a fantastic day and the price is right - $10.00 per car.

Baby A

This little one gave the photo session her all but at only 3 months old that wasn't very long. When we went to do the family shots she was already wiped out ...

Sleepy Girl


This sweet little girl didn't last long in my recent photo session but that's to be expected since she's only 3 months old. I love that she is a total "Daddy's Girl" and I also love that the family are Terp fans!

Week 9 - Project 365

PROJECT 365 - A PHOTO A DAY FOR A FULL YEAR

Day 57 - This little box turtle was taking a sun bath in the middle of the road - after moving him out of harms way - out came my camera!

Day 58 - Just seconds after I took this photo there was a gust of wind and all of the rain drops were gone ... always seize the day!

Day 59 - The curling bark on my Weeping Cherry Tree caught my attention this afternoon.

Day 60 - I'm working on a project with a good friend and you guessed it - she needs apples.

Day 61 - The curbs at the bus stop were finally replaced and the area is lined with caution cones. Thanks to all the rain I found my picture ... I love the reflection in the puddle.

Day 62 - Mowing our lawn is a big job ... it takes my husband close to 2 hours to get it done. With all the rain we just had - I'm sure that he'll be mowing the lawn again real soon.

Day 63 - I LOVE the colors in this bag of beautiful bows from the Harvest Festival. I took a ton of photos and today especially - was hard for me to pick just one.
