After being sicker than a dog last week and weekend, my poor camera didn’t click a whole lot. But feeling better on the back end of this week got us outside and got mommy a little snap happy.
Marshall desperately wanted to play with the sidewalk chalk so of course, I drew him a train. This shot felt so right and I could hardly wait to get it into PSE to see how it came out.
Here’s how this picture happened:
Gibson: “Hey Mom, I’m gonna go upside down in the tree. Check this out!”
Me: “Would you mind if I snapped a few pictures of you in the tree?”
Gibson: “Sure!” (He shrugged, but smiled and let me snap away and even direct him around a little.)
So happy with this one!
Saturday turned out to be beautiful! I sat near the window with warm sun shining on my while I painted my toenails a cute pink color. Gibson and I drove to my favorite scrapbook store while Marshall napped and Matt edited in peace. Then a quick jaunt to the park before the rain came. And of course, something beautiful and pink screamed to me from afar as we approached the playground. I love this tree. It brings such light and brilliance to a sometimes dreadful time of year. I think its sole purpose in life is to remind us that Spring is coming and the sun will warm us soon.

These are all great!! I love your kiddo’s attitude and the pink flowers! I can’t wait for them to show up here.
I’m loving the creativity with the chalk shot! I’m going to need to invest in some soon! 🙂
WOW – that first one caught my eye. Love the chalks and the one of your boy is great too 😀
That shot IS amazing. And thumbs up for him letting you take pictures (cute one, by the way). Why are they usually reluctant to having their pictures taken? Ah, boys.
All three of those photos are just gorgeous! We don’t have any blooming trees yet; soon I hope!
Really great shots. The chalk pic turned out great!! Love the shadows in that one. You are so lucky that your son doesn’t mind getting his picture taken. I have to bribe mine!
The blossoms offer up such hope for spring! Beautiful.
