Frankenmuth, MI

Another good trip this week was to Frankenmuth, MI, which is a sort of Christmas Wonderland of sorts.

There are some family pictures on my other blog, but these are the ones that are more of my "photo play" shots.

Nature Walk

FINALLY, I got out on a shoot this past week. Having two mid-week, unexpected days off school was great! I got a lot of pictures taken. And my camera doesn't think I'm ignoring her anymore.

This was Tuesday, at Metro Beach Metropark.

Aw, Man! It's Friday again!

And I still haven't gotten to last weeks shoot out or this week's shoot out.

If I miss next week's, I full expect to be removed from the member's list. I apologize, my life is just busier than I can find time to fit in a much desired shoot out right now.

:( Sorry Gang!

Shoot Out: Childhood Memories

Thanks, everyone, for indulging me and allowing me to choose this theme. And Thank You for being patient with my post. It's so hard for me to get to during the week.

For me, childhood was strictly about playing. I work hard so my children will remember fun, good moments.

I'd like to share with you a few of our favorite moments in local "hot spots" for my kids.

Here, my oldest is on the local t-ball team. I think every child who's 4 or 5 years old plays in the summer in our community. His younger brother looks on, anxious for when he's old enough to play.




This was taken in Detroit at "The Ren Center" where there is a really cool water feature.


Swimming in the pool


And swimming in the ocean (North Carolina - family vacation).



And here are some "every day play"



And quality time with "brother".

MTFSO: Will be posted Friday evening

It's coming I promise. Weekdays are hard for me!

I'm out this week, MTFSO gang

Hello everyone.
I've had a crazy busy week, didn't take any new shots and I didn't get to my archives.

Sorry guys. :( Have a good week!

My Town Friday Shoot Out: Silhouettes

For this week's My Town Shoot Out, I went to the archives. The theme of the week is silhouettes. Who knew I had done this before...and actually had a few good ones to boot!!


This picture is from my inlaw's family cottage this past 4th of July. That is Lake Erie in the photo.



Our home is very near an Air National Guard Base. This picture, although I wish it was better cropped, was taken this past August at the air show.


This picture is of my youngest son at the Detroit Zoo. He'd positioned himself in a window that looks into the seal aquarium.
