I know, I have been mostly absent from my blogging duties this summer.... Sorry! It has literally flown by before my eyes.We have had so much going on, from activities to out of town guests, it hasn't left me much time on my computer.So, today I wanted to at least get a photo of the day up while I had a few minutes.
Isn't she a doll! This is Roxy.
I was tasked a couple of weeks ago to be the "official photographer" for VBS at our church. I basically walked around taking pictures of everyone and everything that would stand still long enough (and some that didn't!)
I came away with a ton of great shots. Lots of kids having a wonderful time. I can't deny that this is one of my favorite shots from that week. She was running around in her pink princess swimsuit between the water slide and bouncy house, taking a quick break for something cold to drink.
I just love that she wasn't posing, she simply turned around and smiled at me when I called her name. Then, she was off again.....
Look at all these Tulips! Aren't they beautiful! There were literally THOUSANDS of them! I took this last year in the garden area of The Biltmore.
I am very blessed to have some wonderful friends, who I take a trip with each year. This was where we went last year and had an amazing time.
If you have never visited The Biltmore, it is really something to see. The mansion is amazing on it's own, but the garden area is just breathtaking! I never imagined anything so beautiful. This is a location I highly recommend visiting!
Wasn't today just beautiful in Nashville! I love days like today. We spent the entire day outside, working in the yard and just cleaning up a bit.
So, today's photo relates to that in a way.
This is Caitlyn. She is such a sweet, beautiful girl. Actually, she is my sister's niece. She comes to visit a couple of times a year and I am always thrilled to photograph her. She lets me try new stuff, which I LOVE to do.
So, last year I was dying to get a picture of my neighbor's flower bed. It is full of these gorgeous, purple Iris. So, I put Caitlyn right up beside it and I think it turned out great!
What does this have to do with today? Well, one of my many chores today was to plant some of these lovely flowers in my yard. They are not blooming and looking as great as my neighbors' just yet, but that will come. Until then I guess I will just continue to borrow hers....
