SHOTS

So I have this really nice camera, "Canon, Rebel" that I've had for years and never use anymore because it's not digital ...I decided to use it only for black and white photos/close-ups and use it more often, plus I didn't know you could take your roll of film and put it onto a CD to edit and choose which to print and enlarge(news to me!)...these pictures are taken without my extended lense...next time I will use that...I don't know much about photography so if anyone would like to enlighten me on my camera or give me pointers that'd be great!




These were of my niece Willa, who is very photogenic, the next two, her brother Brooks (Jared's kids) were alot harder to capture...he does not sit still for a SECOND....... these were the best two I had...


Oh, I guess I could add in the "drunkard" (is that a word?) The "wrastleling" match (as my dad would call it) , Willa won
Ruby and Brooks on their "JUMP-O-LEEN" ie=Grandma's Couch, this takes up hours of their time....


My precious......Liam


Small One....Ruby
P.S. I LOVE YOU

A much-needed Girls Night Out

I got shot-gun because I had to "pump" on the way down AND back, lucky me...babies come first though, right?


This is before the drinks............imagine after
Nice DODGE Az....acutally she drives an Expedition, so it comfortably suited all of us... thanks for driving girl

As you can see, Coke products were the only liquids going down us that night...thats what I meant by "drinks " of course...This was so great to get-together with lifelong friends...we graduated nearly 10 years ago..! Can't believe it. Thanks girls for making the effort! We missed you Ape! And anyone else who didn't make it...
