Hmm, the camera was getting rusty....

and I really needed to get outside and use my Belle!!! So, I did. Today was a beautiful, sunny Sat. afternoon and Braxxon and I took off down the road for a little walk with the camera! I posted a challenge on Scrap Shotz to "Take a Walk" and show a little piece of what you see while you're out there...here's what I saw:

This first one wasn't on my "walk" but after I brought the dog back home I jumped in the car intending to take a picture of the old abandoned barn down our road, with all the snow there was no place to get off the road and park, so I kept on going and turned at the golf course...I couldn't resist the parked golf carts just waiting for Spring.

Here's Braxxon - played a bit in PSPx2 to brighten up the snow a bit...love scripts!!!

The tree in our yard.

I Have, I Have Been Taking Photos, I Swear!!

As you can see, the last post was back in April when we returned from Punta Cana...well, things have been crazy nuts since then...in a good way! Lots of summer parties, baseball, our Sens went to the Stanley Cup Final game...I'm super proud of our boys! I took my camera to almost every single event this summer so it's gotten used, trust me...hubby has taken to calling me the Camera Lady! Oh my! Here are a few fun shots I got...have I mentioned that I love my Rebel lately? Well...I DO! :)

Beautiful sunset in our front yard in May

Apple blossoms at the tulip festival - May 2007



Friends of ours rented a cottage in August and we went up to visit them for the day...what a beautiful lake.

Again in our yard area, fresh round hay bales in August.



Here's one of the latest photos taken on Labour Day weekend. Tyler was playing washers and I just happened to get this shot with washer included...love the shot, wish the color was a bit better.

There you have it, just a few of my favs from this summer...trust me, there are 100's more!!! I'll try to be more diligent getting photos up here in the future!

One Cloudy Sunday

More random shots throughout the house and yard. I need to get in my car and drive somewhere I think, I'm getting bored of my yard!!! lol I seem to enjoy Sunday's for taking photos, too. Maybe I'll head out on Wednesday since I'm off. I was hoping that there'd be some snow left after the big snowfall we got on Friday but it was warm on Sat. and Sun. and most of it melted. Oh well...Spring is coming, right?
