My mother in law passed away March 29.

Finally got a picture of my girls smiling together, that was a challenge to say the least, but it is now my favorite picture and is heading to work with me Monday morning to sit on my desk.

My current favorite photo is one of my neighbor jumping, the joy on her face is priceless!

My favorite recent photo is from our trip to Hawaii this past week. It is of my 2 kids playing in the surf at the beach. I just love the joy I see in their faces and know just how much fun they had. Makes my heart swell...

Hi, Ali! My most favorite recent photo is of my two middle sons at my niece's wedding last weekend. One was gorgeous in a little brown tux as the ring bearer, and the other was so handsome in a "cowboy tux!" I am very, very blessed!
Happy weekend to you!!!

My gorgeous youngest daughter just had her deb so I have some beautiful pics of her. Would show you if I could......
Thanks for the opportunity Ali!

My latest favorite photo is of my 22-month daughter decked out in an orange ski hat and rhinestone studded sunglass with her tongue hanging out of her mouth. It's a metaphor for her wild personality and our lives right now.

My current cute photo is of our 3 year old son Max snoozing on the couch with the foot hiked up on the back of the couch. Cute shot of a big ol foot!

One with my friends as we celebrate another end of the school year. Oh it is finally over! We are all complete as a group and I love that. Until next time...

I captured a photo of my son jumping into his kiddie pool. I love it b/c he is in mid air and water is flying. There are more pics in the set but this is one of my favs...

My current fave photo is one I took the other day of my 7-month old in our backyard. He makes the funniest faces and looks just like his dad when he does.... http://www.flickr.com/photos/emskyrooney/3625659041/in/set-72157606729417587/

This is a recent photo of my son. We were outside planting flowers in the beds that run the length of our house. He had taken over one of the upturned beds as his personal "construction site" and was happily moving his diggers and dozers all over it. I grabbed my camera, said his name, and he looked up at me with his baby blues. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/bmclean710/blueeyes.jpg

While walking the other day along a nearby prairie trail with our beagle, Angel, we stopped to rest. My husband let Angel drink from a bottle of water and I managed to capture the moment. It was so sweet.

My favorite recent photo is one I took of my grandchildren when they were here for a visit. My grandaughter, who was about 6 mos. old at the time, is sitting on the living room floor, holding a toy, happy as a clam. Her older brother, about 2 1/2, is on his knees beside her, with his arm around her. He's speaking an endearment to her, and his face is right next to hers. His eyes are downcast, while her glance is up towards his face. Perfectly captures her enjoyment of his presence, and his loving tenderness towards her. Gotta love it!

My most recent fave photo is of my little soon to be three year old. What an awesome give away!

My favorite photo is my son holding his son's precious little pink feet. I wish that I had taken the photo for that would have meant that I was there for the birth!

My current favorite photo is a family snapshot of the 5 of us in Orlando visiting Mickey. Boy are our kids growing up way toooo fast for me, but we had a great family trip together!

My favorite photo right now is of my baby looking back at me. We had just finished his bath so he was all clean and happy. I love the happiness in his eyes . . . melts my heart. Here is a link to the layout I created with it:

well, here's my woe-is-me story. my digital camera is down, this time i think for good. BUT.... i do have my 35mm up and clicking! felt good to have it in my hands again!! the little digi-p.a.s. is just so easy... ANYWAY...
my favorite picture (that i can't share) is one i just took an hour ago of my 2 little monsters playing in the rain on a puddled driveway. my son in a bright orange tank top and a blue and green umbrella, my dgt with a purple shirt on, light blue shorts and a bright yellow duckie umbrella. i'm sure when i get the film developed i'll be able to hear the giggles and shouts of joy thru the pic. they had suck great big smiles on their faces!! the sun was out. my dh was standing next to me. it was a perfect spring moment-to-capture!!
