A hunting we will go.....

MUSHROOMS!!! yes...hunting mushrooms is on 'ol favorite of mine. i have so many wonderful memories going mushroom hunting with family and friends, in many different places!!! (can't tell ya where...hee hee) but i don't know WHY i have "good" memories....cause i NEVER could find the stupid things; DAD always did! however, there sure is something exciting about finding them!!! and now my kids are enjoying it too! may sound boring and silly to some.....but as we left our secret place, all three kids said, "mommy....THAT WAS FUN!"

leave it to sophia to be the first child to find one first! that sure didn't make big sister very happy.......BUT, low and behold by the time we were done EVERYONE had found a mushroom!!!! we only found about 22 or so.....but we sure are proud of those!

i talked to a lady friend the other day, and she said she went to a flea market one time, and saw people BUYING THESE THINGS FOR $47/LB!!!!!!!!!!!!!! man.....why can't i find a few pounds!





























this is just a picture of leaf that was "glowing" in the shade. it was just growing straight up out of the gournd and it appeared to glowing! it was really cool! i thought it was pretty......nothing breath-taking but thought i would try to capture it the best i know how!

About Me

well....where do i begin?? i have never done a "blog" before, and don't know if this is even for me. but a few friends, and one very persistant sister-in-law(esther)really encouraged me to start some sort of "blog" or any place online, to share photos i have taken. so i thought, what the heck!? most everyone knows that photography has been a hobby of mine for a few years now. so with lots of practice, lots of failing, lots of reading and googling, i feel like little by little i'm getting a little better all the time. and part of the reason for getting better, is because of the famous gina..... whom EVERYONE loves and knows, she has been letting me pick her brain for tips and tricks. also, kris, who i met online after joining a photography forum, who happens to be an awesome wedding phogtographer, she has been a TON of help as well! since i have 3 children, my goal is to be able to truly capture, like a professional can capture, the pure innocence and fun of my children. (and i get it for free!) and, since i have lots of wonderful friends & family, i get to practice on them, too!
