Just a quick note...

I've been so busy working on my photography that I haven't been blogging. But I have been taking a lot of photos! This is one I just had to take because he was so funny.

What was so funny about this was that this filthy, dirt-coated, grungy boy came in the house like Pigpen (you know, from Peanuts?) with puffs of dirt trailing behind, then held out just his hands and said, "I need to wash these." LOL!! He was right! But he needed to wash them in a bathtub full of soapy water! Do boys come with dirt magnets?

Here's one more picture that was kinda fun. Not spectacular from a technical perspective, but there are 8 monkeys in it! This was taken for Rose's About Me poster - her mom, Felice, wanted a photo of Rose's favorite hobby - playing in our tree with our kids.

My children believe that they are starving (you can see that in this photo, right?), so I must go prepare their evening meal. If you're looking for more photos or whatever, head on over to my photo blog: A Life of Joy Photography.
