Happy August, from Miss O

Decided to hook up my ol'lens to my ol'camera and take her for a quick mini-mini session with Olivia, so quick that we didn't even take the time to change her into something super cute or even brush her hair (or clip her nails (I am now seeing that needed to be done). But I just haven't taking photos in so long I wanted to really give it a shot....Olivia was totally into it for the few minutes we were outside (it's hot BTW).....

here are a few.....

Monday Mashup!

Not many words are needed to really express the relationship that she and I have. It is safe to say we are in this wicked world together, and we make a great team.

Making Our OWN Rain!

Happy "Almost" Holidays!

So, the unthinkable happened. My camera stopped functioning during a little mini session with my kiddos. This caused me to have to turn down a few photo sessions this fall-which sucks because everyone loves a little extra cash around the holidays.

But the good news is, I did manage to get a few cute pics of the kids & the camera is fixable (away being fixed now) so in the meantime, please take a look at the photos I got of my sweet babes..(the ones left in the nest anyway). As you can see from the photos-only one was willing to "model" for me lol

2019 Polaroids

My dad has been into photography for a while now, not sure if it was a way to connect with me or if he truly has the photography bug-and maybe I get my interest from him :). Either way, when we went for a visit after his chemo treatment he pulled out a new camera he bought and took a photo of each of us. Now I need me one of these bad boys.....the photos turned out pretty darn cute if you ask me. What do you think? Oh and to be fair to my dad-I took the photo of my brother Matthew-hahaha!

Flowers at UF

I have wanted to take some time, walk the campus of UF and just take pictures of the flowers and plants. This one was growing right outside of Library West this week, in full bloom. Gorgeous!

Blackberries

One thing Olivia loves to do every year in the spring/summer is to pick the wild blackberries we have growing in the lot next door to ours.  I shouldn’t say we have growing, the earth has growing and we are lucky enough to enjoy!

She has been bugging me every day to go check out all the bushes to see if there are any blackberries yet.  Of course they are just now flowering, so we don’t have any yet-but I did take a walk around the property last night and we held hands and talked about all the yummy blackberries she would eat-once they came in.

The West Kiddos (my favs)

O&S

This past weekend we decided to let Olivia have a sleep over with her cousin Savannah. Savannah is just a few months younger then Olivia. They had a fun time, though they got on each others nerves rather a lot. I would hear Savannah say "Olivia you're being so mean" and Olivia say "well stop snatching things from me...." and Savannah saying "well I was playing with it first..." but all in all-they had a great time once Olivia remembered how to share properly ;)
