i heart faces- Hands

I was more than a little excited when I saw the theme for the i heart faces challenge of the week- Hands.  I absolutely love this picture of hands that I got from a session a couple of weeks ago.  I was saving it to share in my next blog, but I think it's even a better idea to share it now.  Happy Monday everyone!!! :)

Rainy days and Mondays

Well... I chose the title Rainy days and Mondays thinking that today was Monday... Three day weekends always get me confused!  But, it was a rainy day when I met up with the winner of our Sweetness Contest from back in February.  We had tried to set a date many times, but between my work schedule, her school schedule, and summer being so hot, we couldn't work anything out.  Then, when we finally did pick a date IT RAINED!!! So, rather than just call it off, we postponed and I watched the radar like a hawk.  Once it seemed that the rain... and lightning... had moved past our county, we raced over and got our session in before the next set of storms moved in.  It was a fun hour, and I am so happy with the pictures of this beautiful mom and son.  I hope you enjoy them, and have a happy Monday... um... Tuesday!!!

i heart faces- Friendship

I have to admit that I wander over to iheartfaces.com every Monday to see what their photo challenge is for the week.  Some weeks I know that I don't have any pictures to enter, but every once in a while I feel like I have one that I need to share.  This week's challenge is Friendship.  I took this picture of my best friends a while back, notice, they're wearing coats... and around here these days, our tempuratures have been in the 100s.  And I know that there are flaws in this image... not the best composition, the sky is overexposed, the sunspots are too big to be desired...  But, every time I look at this picture I smile, because not only are these people my best friends, they are each other's best friend.  These two show me and everyone else in their lives what true friendship means.  They love each other, enjoy to be with each other, and respect and serve each other in a Godly marriage.  I am thankful every day that God put them and their kids in my family's life!

  I hope that you all have a blessed week and a happy Monday!
