Tip-toeing through the tulips...well, not exactly but close enough!

Tip-toeing through a field of daffodils with my camera and my youngest muse has been a wish of mine for years. I’ve planted bulbs, and attempted to make my own “field of flowers”, but they never seemed to take off.  I always ended up with a few pretty ones to pick and hold in their hands, and that was about it.  Well this year, my mom’s neighbor told her about a gorgeous field of daffodils located back in the woods, so I jumped at the chance to go.  I was a little nervous about the wind, as any of you close to Fredericksburg can attest to how crazy that was yesterday, and of driving my Swagger Wagon into the rough terrain, but I was determined to get there.  Well, we made it without getting stuck, and when we pulled up to the field it was well worth the drive. GORGEOUS can’t even describe how they looked…on and on they went.  Apparently an old house was built back there long ago, and is long gone now, but they must’ve planted them years and years ago, and through the years they’ve become a field.  A photographers dream…well, at least mine.  Here are several of my Miss Olivia in this years Easter dress.  Thanks for peeking.

Petey Bird!

Tweet, tweet, chirp, chirp…those are the sounds floating throughout my house each day…meet Petey.  He was Bryson’s birthday gift two years ago, and though he doesn’t get as much one on one attention as he deserves, he’s well loved and always fun to let him eat out of your hand or stroke his soft feathers. 

I recently repainted and redecorated the kid’s bathroom, and needed something with that gorgeous green color I love…avocado green, tree frog green, basil…whatever it’s called I LOVE it, hence my website colors!  Anyway, Petey’s gorgeous green feathers match perfectly, so captured some recent shots of Bryson with his little friend to decorate the walls.  Now off to capture some bubble shots of the other two youngest kids so they don’t wonder why they aren’t on the walls too!

And one just for laughs...I couldn't resist sharing.  This is so Bryson...my silly little guy.  Don't worry; precious Petey wasn't harmed in anyway!

A Sat. evening at the Longs...

Cool spring evening, the smell of fresh cut grass, cousins spending the night and an hour until dinner…what else could be better than a game of football to pass the time?  Had to grab a few snapshots of all my boys playing…they are growing so fast & I don’t want to miss a second!  And one of Miss Olivia on her new big girl bike…she rides it every chance she gets.
