Bubbles

Summertime means it is time to bring out the bubbles.  I am not a huge fan of bubbles... not really sure why.  Guess it is because they can become very messy.  Despite my dislike of bubbles, I brought them out for Natalie and Harper and they had a blast!  The large 32 oz bottle that I bought was gone within minutes!

Just Playing

Natalie, Harper and I ventured out down South Shades Crest Road the other day.  I was trying to find a farm that I had heard about with Horses so that just maybe Natalie could pet a horse.  Never found the farm but we did find this fun park with a little lake.  Here are some pictures from our time there. 

Harper decided to try and scare the geese... they didn't budge. 

Watermelon

There is nothing better in the summer than a giant piece of watermelon.  Harper absolutely loves it so I gave her a big piece and let her go to town.  Of course I made her go outside.  She was cracking me up so I grabbed my camera and took a few shots.

 

The Souders Clan

A couple of weeks ago I decided I wanted to play with the camera and as much as I love my own kids... I didn't want to use them.  So... I borrowed Becky's kids.  :)  The twins Haley and Hayden just celebrated their first communion and Becky was not able to get any pictures of them on that day so we headed out to Aldridge Gardens with their communion dresses on.  Hunter came along as well and I had fun with him.   It was HOT on this particular afternoon but the kids were great.  They enjoyed looking for snakes and turtles in the lake.  I was doing a lot of experimenting during this shoot but I got a couple of good shots.  Here are a few from our afternoon together.

I love this next shot because of the way that Haley is looking at Hayden.

Big Brother Hunter is looking for snakes.
