I Heart Faces - Week 16 (Day 78 / 365)



This week on I Heart Faces, the photo contest theme is REFLECTION.



Kids' Entry
This theme was hard for me to think of something "interesting" or "different" to do! I tried taking a photo of Jackson's face reflected in the tv, but that turned out about as well as you would imagine!!! I finally convinced Jackson to climb up on the bathroom counter and look in the mirror for me. I took many photos, but I really love the one below. I love how big his eyes are in this photo, and the look on his face. He is really concentrating for me! What made this photo even harder to take was that it takes A LOT of energy for Jackson to sit still! He did a great job though!

Day 77 / 365

pot
Brendan had a baseball game tonight, and I forgot my camera! He was going to be my subject for today. So...I just went out and took a photo of one of my pots out front. I always take my MIL's advice and plant a thriller (Spikes Dracena), some filler (Dusty Miller and a Lantana...I've already forgotten the other two) and a spiller (Verbena). Since my front porch gets sun all day, I have to plant accordingly. These pots will be fried by July anyway though, and I'll start over!

fence

At every baseball game, I fight with the fence to get a great photo. Day 73's photo shows the fence wins most of these battles.

My dear friend, Kristen, left this beautiful rose bush on my front porch with a really sweet note. Although today is the first anniversary of my father's death, this rose bush represents new life and new beginnings, and I cannot wait to plant it. Thank you so much!

We took the boys to their first Carolina baseball game. We played Miami and won! It was Carolina Kids' Club day so there was food, we got to stay for player autographs after the game. Great day of baseball!!!
