Weekly winners Feb 24-March1,2008

We have had some gorgeous weather this last week. So we were outside quite a bit. Here are a few of my favorites:


This was taken at preschool. She was actually sitting in circle while they did someone's birthday celebration.


Livi calls this her 'butterfly' flower.


He was watching the spout waiting for the water. I really was hoping he would spray it and I could get that shocked wet look! Is that a mean momma or what?


There has been a longneck sighting in Texas.


Another 'purpur' flower....two guesses as to who picked this one out?


Once he finally did get wet......

go see Lotus at sarcastic mom if you want to play.

What amazes me about your photos of your kids is how expressive the kids are via photo. Most kid photos seem very staged - I always feel like I'm peaking into their lives. I bet their Dad loves getting these.

The dinosaur on the tree is fantastic. I love the bright red against the muted colors of tree/grass!

Very nice! I especially loved the pansy. One day, we'll get some spring around here! And it does have butterfly markings in the middle.

Too bad you missed the action with the hose, but I really like the aftermath shot!

MamaGeek @ Works For Us said...

I love any shot with Livi or Will in. They are so beautiful T. Great shots (and vignetting too I might add)!

Oh, did you get a speedlite? :)

Hmmm...I always think of my mom when I see a pansy, but now I'll probably smile and think of Liv and her butterflies too!

Desert Diva said...

I love the butterfly flower!

My ex-husband was afraid of pansies (not really, it was his joke though) 'cause they look like frowny, mean flowers!

That butterfly flower reminds me of Alice and Wonderland. "You can learn a lot of things from the flowers. Especially in the month of June...."

Joanna said...
