I love this photo,although
how I managed to hold it still at 1/25 sec I just don't know.
I only adjusted the layers slightly.


Love these colourblocks

Ballerina

Loving your new dress and your ballet and tap shoes...

Winter is coming to an end soon and both girls boots are starting to look the worse for wear. I couldn't decide what edit I prefer.  I really need to learn how to work with layers and adjust certain parts of the picture. This website here looks like it might help me so I will have to get reading.

Quotes...

Miss A " We taught 'G' everything we know!"  

(one of her friends was starting gymnastics)

 
We have now started getting spelling tests each week and they have a traffic light system Green -all correct, orange - mostly correct and red - not so good.  When I asked Miss A how she had got on she replied "green of course, I will NEVER be red!!!"

Miss K wasn't interested in decorating the cakes, she was more interested in eating!! Miss E is looking very pleased with her decorating!  She spends the whole time wanting to lick the bowl....
I remember now why we haven't baked for a while!!  The mess....

We were doing some baking today, making cup cakes.

Week 9 of my project 52 and the theme is 'round'
Finally Erin will eat apples and oranges!
I  am quite enjoying the challenges each week.  Sometimes its nice to take pictures of other things and it challenges me a bit more.
I have been trying out different settings on my camera, tyring to figure out ISO and f stops etc.
I love playing around with actions but have no idea if what I do looks ok to others or not!

The berries are coming out now, is spring around the corner?  I hope so....

My 6 yr old daughter first valentine card and chocs. She was more interested in eating all the chocs!

Annis got her first Valentine card and some choccies yesterday! The girls at school seemed to do quite well - but none of the boys got anything!!She comes in and  wants "Ollie choc" - not sure what she will say when they are finished. She seems to love playing "kiss chase" at school. I can't believe she is like this - when she was younger she never went near other kids - let alone boys!  She is one of the tallest in her class - so she doesn't have too much trouble catching the boys!!  I feel quite sorry for them!!

These 2 get on so well most of the time, Miss  K follows Miss E around everywhere and copies her.  She is now picking up lots of bad habits though!! She is turning into a little girl now, no longer my baby!!
