day 141.





just when i think i know whats going on.
just when i'm ready to call myself the shiz.
i am humbled.

there's always more to learn.

next time someone says photography is "just pushing a button, right?",
I'll slap their face off.
and i'm not kidding.

1 Corinthians 13: 4-7:
Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, ...believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

day 120.



not the best photo,
but i had about 1 second to capture it before it was gone
& mr. stinky would be eating his icecream.
kids don't wait for pictures.
especially when it involves icecream.

he was more excited about "the icecream truck"
than the actual icecream.
ha.

the only person who is allowed to ring my doorbell before noon
is the UPS guy.
he is great. he rings it and leaves. i wait til he's gone, then i quickly grab my box.
he leaves me such wonderful surprises too!

day 114.




these cute boys come into our yard sometimes
to find "rolly pullies" (aka- potato bugs)

jax is kind of girly because he hangs out with his mother all day
who screams and runs when she sees any type of bug.
this day was good for him.
