Crabapple

This is my favorite color of crabapple. I'll try and get a shot tonight of it in fuller bloom. I took this one on Sat. morning and it wasn't quite completely bloomed out yet. Had a super busy weekend....mainly cleaning and fertilizing flower beds. I'm beginning to realize that I've got way too much to take care of for the shape I'm in. But...I was able to get down on my knees on Sunday evening....I hadn't been able to do that since I had surgery. Maybe the knee is finally coming around! Yippee.

Winter Wonderland

I wish I'd taken my camera to work on this day, January 12th 2010....the world was simply BEAUTIFUL! I can't capture the awe of it but I tried. There was nothing anywhere outside that wasn't covered in thick, white frost. When it started falling, it was like a heavy snow. Around 10 am, the sun started breaking through the clouds and the world was transformed into this lovely, bright, shiny white. Breathtaking, to say the least.

September 2009

I'm going to take a guess and say this is some kind of mushroom. It completely covers this tree and I liked the color contrast between it and the green behind. This is one time I really wished I had my tripod with me cause my big lens is so hard to hold steady.

Walk around Grandma & Grandpa's yard

Went for a walk around the yard while visiting Brent's Mom & Dad.

Our Friendship

Our friendship began many years ago when we met on a computer craft forum. We both enjoy doing computer crafts for our friends and family. This blog is simply a way to bridge the miles between two friends. We have never met each other personally but feel like we know each other about as well as one can without actually meeting. Since our friendship began, we've added digital scrapbooking and photography to our hobbies. So, this blog is a way to showcase our photography as well as the scrapbook pages we create out of them. Our photography is not technically correct but it captures moments in our lives for our future generations and inspires us to do better each time we squeeze that shutter button.

Update: 02-23-2013

Anyone that says that time stands still really isn't living...it's been a bit over 5 years since we posted the first image on here on Feb. 17th 2008. Seems like yesterday! I've enjoyed the journey and hope to continue it for many more years to come. I've seen Nita's grands grow and she has seen mine, even though we have never met in person. She knows me as well as my best friend does and visa versa. I've learned so much from her and hope I've shared just a bit of knowledge to her. Nita is the design guru for our blog and this new layout is just a bit of her talent. She has a designers eye and it shows in everything she does. Me, I'm just along for the ride...LOL...

So, pull up a chair and grab a cup of coffee. Nita and I love to share our likes and passions. And, if you like what you see, leave us a little comment...it will make our day!
