The Britt Family

Here are some pictures I took back in March of Maria, Kelly and all the kids. She wanted to get some taken before the wedding, so we planned for a Sunday afternoon. The weather turned out perfect! 

Thanks so much for asking me to do these for you Maria!

Here’s Kelly, Maria, Justin, John, Reagan, Katie, Jamie, Sam & Jack

After lots of editing, changing photo sizes, and trying to figure out how to post side-by-side pictures, I’m back with more from our Valentine’s shoot….minus the know-how on posting large side-by-side pics.  (Insert major frustration here!)

I would really love to be able to have bigger side-by-sides. Instead, I had to end up making them very small in order for it to work. (sigh), I guess I’ll just keep trying, and if anyone has any suggestions on this, I would love to hear it!

Oh, and I must say again how much I’m loving my new lens! Now, I just need to get a good editing software. Right now I’m just using Microsoft Picture Manager, which was already on my computer. I’ve been tossing around the idea of either Lightroom or Photoshop Elements. What do you use? And what would you recommend?

Ok, enough of my rambling and on to the good stuff!

This is my favorite picture of the day!

I love the expressions on Luke’s face in this series.

 

I love taking pictures of flowers! Here’s a few shots of the roses we had with us that day.

The kids wanted to make some table decorations for our Valentine’s dinner and this is what we came up with. They did most of this on their own with only a little help from me. It’s just hearts cut out from construction paper and threaded together. Very easy but very cute! They also made a banner just like this and we hung it across the window. Aren’t they talented?

And this is a picture of one of the candles on our dinner table…

I hope you’ve had a lovely day!

Valentine’s Sneak Peek

 

I know, I know, I haven’t exactly been keeping up with my blog lately.  Actually, for the whole month of January and 1/2 of February, I haven’t even logged in to my account……pathetic, I know. I’ll try to do better.  And I really need to do better about taking pics. 

Speaking of pics, here’s a little sneak peek from a Valentine’s Day shoot I did with my kids. I tried to upload these yesterday, but my camera battery died, so I had to wait for it to charge before I could continue.  We had a lot of fun doing these and the weather was perfect!

I’m working on getting the rest edited and I’ll be posting those tomorrow.

**Christmas Snow**

 

My lovely husband got me a new lens for Christmas and I am LOVING it!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

haha! We didn’t have any carrots for his nose, so they had to improvise.  “You might be a redneck if you’ve ever used a firecracker for Frosty’s nose, mouth and….eyebrows?!”

 

He looks mean!!

 

That’s it for now, Happy New Year!

Christmas Pictures 2010

 

A few weeks ago I took the kids to downtown Stanfield to try to get a good picture for our Christmas card this year. It was very cold that afternoon but the kids did great. I got several good photos, but for several different reasons, this is the one that ended up being on our card.

 

  Here are the rest of my favorites.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I would like to announce that I’m done with my shopping! Yayyy! Now on to the wrapping. I know I must be weird, but I actually love wrapping gifts and I’m very particular about how they look.

I’m not sure if I will get a chance to post anything between now & the end of the year, so I would like to wish you all a very “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!”  See ya in 2011!!
