Sorry for slacking on the blog.

Sorry I have not posted in a while. Life has gotten in the way. I had to go to Florida to help my mama and sister in law. My niece got really sick. The girls and I then went back to Ohio with my mama to spend time with the family. Well I was suppose to come home and something was just telling me to stay in Ohio for a little bit longer so I did. Well my mama passed away June 22nd 2009. She went peacefully in her sleep. I got to spend until 2:30am in the morning with her just talking like old times and my dad found her at 5:30am dead. The 22nd was also my 29th birthday and Andrew's 30th. So needless to say life has not been very cheerful for me lately.
I am finally coming around and doing what I need to do. There has also been a lot of other stuff going on since I have been home but that's not to be talked about on here or anywhere. This picture is of my mama,best friend and mentor. RIP Mama I love you and miss you everyday. 12-12-53 to 06-22-2009.

Finally got to play with Photoshop Elements.

Where is the three pictures I edited in PSE 7.0 The flower was my very first try. Thank godness PSE walks you through whatever editing you want to do. In Fallon's photo you can not really tell I left her eyes blue plus the two ends on the cords green and yellow. Ashlinn's photo I left her eyes blue and the little S on her shirt pink. Please let me know what y'all think. I am still very new at the program. The other picture I just turned it black and white. You can see what the nonedited version looks like on my blog also.

Getting a new lens!

Andrew is buying me the 55-200mm lens for my Nikon. I am so happy and can not wait to get it. It can not come fast enough. Now my next thing to buy is a camera bag. I think I am going to take the girls to the water front and take some pictures of them and see how they turn out. We need something to send to the grandparents for mothers and fathers day.

More random pics.

These pictures were taken on country roads from N.C. to Ohio.

Random nature pics I have taken.

Love the Sun!

I loved the way the sun looked on your way back from Virginia, so I took some pictures. I also was just messing around and took a picture with the passenger side mirror of the sun and loved the way it turned out. I hope you enjoy thes pictures.

I am loved. :-)

So we needed to go buy some food since we lost all our meat in the deep freezer while we were gone in Disney. Well I have been looking at some Photoshop Element programs and after talking to Micah I decided on Photoshop 5.0 but it is very outdated so I was looking at Photoshop 7.0. I have been wanting a tripod also. Well today my husband bought me both Photoshop elements 7.0 and a tripod. YAY!!!!! I am very loved by my husband. Now out to take some pictures tomorrow.

This is what's up with the Clarke Family!
