June

Busy with a ton of stuff. June is SUCH a write off. Field trips, picnics in the park, school swimming... so crazy. Times this all by two. Took tons of pics this month. Eventually I'll get to adding them to Flickr.

Kids are thrilled it's summer though. It'll be hard, but great all at the same time. We've made a "summer schedule" and hopefully we'll stick to it. Library on Tuesdays, picnic in the park on Tuesdays... two afternoons a week working... limited TV time... that kinda thing.

Just finished an online crop at MSS. Got a lot done.

... and some more (posted in Flickr and MSS). Okay... so not all of them were done today... but still.

Have a great long weekend.

Today...

... I'm busy with this...

Still here...

... just swamped (with normal, everyday stuff).
I'll share soon.

A new love

LOVIN' Flickr right now!

SOOO many awesome photos (and photographers) out there. Totally wants to make me walk around all day with my camera!

I have the goal to get all my photos up there (for archival purposes), but for now I'm starting with March 07 (our Florida trip), work forward and then do my older stuff when I have time (I still have it on our external harddrive). I also some viewable to family only, so I have to get going on that too.

But for now I love it! Love it! I just need more time to play with it.

Camera... I love you.

Busy. A good busy.

Found kitties. Played in the sprinkler (well. hose. actually)


And went back to the Thresherman's Museum on Sunday. Molly had gone there for her field trip the week before. I can't believe I'd never been there. Derek and I felt TOTALLY at home there. We actually have some of the same furniture and antiques in our home. A similar wood couch. Some little knick-knacky things. An old counter. Old signs. Such a history. Everything had a story. We always thought we were born at the wrong time. Don't get me wrong. I LOVE my electricity and running water... but they don't make things now like they used too.
And now I have an obscene amount of photos (I took 150 or so!). Here are some of my favs.

And, some that I so badly wanted to turn out didn't... so... guess that means we're going back.

FYI. We went on a Sunday afternoon (from 2pm till 5pm) and we were the only people there! Perfect.

P.S. Love, Elsie should be arriving by the weekend.

Edited to add: The photo of Derek and myself was taking by Molly. My 50mm lense doesn't zoom, so I told her were to stand and asked to just to take pictures. We did some posed ones, but the money-shot was a candid one.
