#82 Walking the wire

#82 Highwire act

#81 Bowhead

She took out her bow and put it back in all by herself. She was so proud. I couldn't break it to her that it was smack dab in the middle of her forehead!

#80 Heavy lifting

SOOC, taken with my point and shoot. Lily couldn't wait to get into the pallet lifter at the Detroit Science Center this weekend. Gotta love that smile!

#79 3 boys and a DS

The effect of a kid playing a Nint*nd* DS always amazes me. My younger son always brings his to his brother's karate class. Just about every boy walks up and glances to see what he is playing. I would say at least half the time, they stay and watch for at least 2 minutes if they have the time. This picture was taken during Lily's karate class (I tried getting pictures of karate, but none came out very well), and the three boys sat around the entire time watching each other play.

#78 The birthday cake

I am having trouble getting good images in the harsh, late afternoon sunshine.

#76 Tulip again

Yes, I milked these tulips for all they were worth. I am lacking in motivation and inspiration this month, so these flowers helped me out for a few days! Amazingly, the morning after this picture was taken the flowers were completely dead and ugly!

#73 My future quarterback

The boys have been playing football in the basement all winter. I have played catch with them a little bit, but its hard to really see what they can do indoors. Today they played outside and Dylan can throw the ball like a bullet with a perfect spiral. I was so impressed! Ben is quite the defensive player, too. My boys may be football players - I'm kind of frightened!

#70 Friends

Lily had a play date with a friend from karate yesterday. The girls had a fantastic time dressing in princess dresses, pretending they were puppies and kitties, taking their babies for walks, and just being silly.

#69 The elusive one

My oldest son actually let me take his picture. Can you tell that originally there were two boys wrestling in the distance? My photoshop class had paid off!

#67 Cheesy

Taken while making the Pioneer Woman's Cheese Puffs. I took a bunch of pictures, trying to document my cooking with each step like she does. In the rush to finish so I could pick the boys up from school, I forgot to take a picture of the finished product!

#66 Up the wall

Taken moments before Cathy's hands slipped off the wall as she reached for the top, resulting in her dangling upside down by her pants let. I was in too much shock to get a picture of that! Cathy, Susan and I did make it to the top of the wall though!

Thanks for letting me post another picture Cathy!

How could I resist taking a picture of this?

#64 Jumping for joy

Thank you to my friend Cathy for humoring me in posing for the jumping in the air beach picture! Thank you also for letting me use your picture while wearing a bathing suit! You look great.

This picture is SOOC. The skin is a little too bright, but the blues are just beautiful!

#62 Love that smile

Can you see my reflection in her eyes?

#62 I love this girl!

#61 Spring can't get here soon enough...

...for my daughter to wear these clothes!

It was 11:30 pm and I hadn't taken a picture. I took this in bad light and accidentally in JPEG. Not a great image, but great clothes!

#60 Dog in the snow

I like this picture of our dog. The only thing I was a little bummed about was the shadow on one of his eyes.

#59 Lily & me

The only pictures I took yesterday were with my point and shoot while at Disney on Ice. Needless to say, none of them were very good. This was the best, probably since I wasn't trying to shoot moving figures in a dark arena with spotlights with a p&S camera!
