Who needs a pool when you have a big bucket and some cups?

My favorite part of June.....the blooming lilies!

Would you call this boredom or determination???

The boys worked together to stack all of the balls into the hoop at once.  Then Nicholas poked the bottom one with a hockey stick so there was a cascade of bouncy balls in the driveway.

Creative editing with Picasa

I'm not a huge fan of editing.  Yes, it serves its purpose.  But I prefer to do most of the work with my camera, rather than taking a mediocre picture and dressing it up with the Latest and Greatest Editing Software.  I rely on my eye and creativity.  That being said, it IS fun to play sometimes and explore my "artsy" side.

I had only one chance to get this picture...my mom was driving when I spotted these tracks coming up.  I aimed my camera out the passenger side window and waited.  Not only did I get the shot, but it turned out even better than I expected it to.
