Monarch

This turned out to be a shot worth laying on the ground for. The girls were wanting to go and I saw this butterfly out of the corner of my eye. I told everyone to be still and quiet and I got down on the ground in front of the bush where the butterfly was flitting about. After 5 shots of the bugger with it's wings closed it finally opened up and I got the shot!

Jumping in feet first......

I never really thought that I would become a blogger...I mean, I have a ton of stuff to do as it is....between the demands of being a single mom, scout leader, paralegal, etc. I have a full plate. But I don't get to scrapbook as often as I want to and I still take 100s of pictures a week. This is an opportunity for me to showcase my favorite photos, write about what is going on in our lives so that it's documented and hopefully grow as a photographer. I can't guarantee that I will update this daily...but I will try to update as often as I can!!!
