Here fishy fishy!

If you have little ones, you must take them to feed the fish at the Blue Springs Lake Marina. They will love it! There are hundreds of fish (carp, I think). Grab a bag of food in the store and watch the fish go crazy. Warning: they splash.

Eyelashes

My little guy's eyelashes. Dark brown and tipped with blond. Love 'em.

Happy Halloween!

I have to say that a holiday that involves candy is nice to have come around while pregnant. Hope everyone had a good one!

Butterflies

This is the neatest place, we took our son a few weeks ago: http://www.thebutterflypalace.com. You watch a 3D movie about the life of a butterfly and then get to walk along thousands of butterflies, I could have stayed for hours with my camera.

Sponsored by Coke

Everybody had a Coke at this wedding! It was just funny, because there were lots of other beverages, but looking through the images, cans are everywhere!

Fireworks from the backyard

So, being back in Missouri during the 4th of July was...... loud. I did think it was pretty neat to be able to sit on our deck and see fireworks. My new camera arrived just in time. Did I mention that I bought a new camera? It was like Christmas in July!

Powell Gardens

Powell Gardens had a dinosaur display that we took out little guy to. That is one gorgeous place.

Ducks and music in the park

If you aren't busy on a Sunday evening, check out Railroad Park. From 6:30-8:30 almost every Sunday night this summer, there is a band playing, usually blues. These baby ducks seemed to be enjoying the "Crazy Kats".

Horsing around

The three horses in the second picture, they wanted a portrait taken. They came right up and posed. Being a suburban kind of gal, I was a little timid to get right up there for a close-up. After some urging from my husband (assurance they will not bite, they have big teeth, ya know), I moved in a little closer.

Bokeh & Architecture

Longview Kite Fest

The kites were amazing, but my favorite thing about the festival was this cute couple enjoying hotdogs.

In the yard

Echo the dog

Some of my favorite things

When asked to choose a couple of enlargements for display at a school, I chose these. The buildings have been vacant ever since I can remember. I love the colors. The olives, I must confess are a craving and popped out at me when browsing my archives. I can say that no one else had a trio of olives.

Wedding

I did not shoot this wedding, but of course, I had my camera.

Cookies

Sit and spin
