Random Light Tests

Borrowed a few new photog books from the library today, and perused quite a few in Barnes and Noble as well. Discovered that my flash has greater wireless capability than I had originally realized so of course I had to go home and test it!! These are just a few snapshots as I was playing with the off-camera flash. (I had one child hold the flash while the other sat for the photo, child labor)

PS - the black and white is my fave of the day!

Photo 365 12.28.10

I found this jewel at Family Christian Store a few weeks back. We had one just like it when I was growing up. Thought it would be a great way to sow scripture into the hearts of Eli and Sarah.

Yesterday's photo. Eli, all tuckered out and ready for bed. Such a long and filled weekend, but all good stuff. :)

Saturday's photo of the day, from the Speed The Light Walk To Drive (we walked so missionaries could ride). San Jacinto Section raised over $2000, so that was pretty sweet! My kiddos played on the playground and enjoyed our 67 degree weather, thank you Jesus!

Photo 365, Photo #37

My amazing son and his usual antics. My favorite part about his dream home might be a tie between the arcade and the pizza kitchen. Oh to be 9 again. :)

Yesterday's POTD is from Sarah's perspective. I found her mismatched family of Pollies on the side of the bathtub last night. And I know from previous questioning that she would tell me that they are posed for a family portrait. :) I only wish I had photographed it the time before, she had about 15 Pollies arranged in the corner of the tub, each windowed beautifully. I was inspired, large group photography is tricky! (of course, it's easier when their smiling faces are painted on!)

About todays Picture Of The Day, I can't wait to take it. I always take this annual photo, have since the first year Sarah was born and Rob was at school all day. (I think it was his 12 hour day when he didn't even see the kids) Anyway, now it's a tradition and it's so fun to see their growth each year!

You can find more old Valentine's pictures here, and here. For some sad reason, I haven't blogged them all. bummer.

PS- please contine to pray for Sare, she's still under the weather with lesions on her throat. Probably returning to the dr. tomorrow if she doesn't make dramatic improvement in the next 24.
