I just love when pictures can tell a story.... So this post will be told differently. Yes, there will be an actually "posting" but I plan to let the photos tell most of my story. Humor me if you will because I recently purchased a Canon Rebel XT from one of my Mommy friends who is also a fantastic photographer. I have the camera I have wanted for over a year now so what is a girl to do when she has a new toy?
PLAY!!!
So I will begin my picture story with a brief prelude - First off as you know it is early March. However
Mother nature is confused and thinks it is May. We have had record breaking temps hovering in the mid to upper 70's for the past few days and even had a day last weekend where we hit 85.
Several things occurred during this breakout of warm temps:
1) I went into an extreme panic when I put on a pair of shorts.
2) I went into an even more extreme panic when I walked by the mirror and saw my white, pasty, out of shape thighs, (and my recent order of Girls Scout cookies aren't helping).
3) A quick glance at the calendar tells me I have less time than think to try and rectify the situation. Which makes me panic even more, which makes me have an extra beer which is also not helping.
4) But I digress....
Warm temps also bring on new adventures, new experiences and this thing....
For the Boys latest adventure which is this...
Compliments of this Guy!
Yes, both boys are currently signed up for spring practice and Chris, ever the "thinking ahead" sort of guy. Decided to turn our backyard into a mini baseball camp. I mean T-Ball camp, as my 5 year old always corrects me. Because I, know nothing about T-ball. In fact I know nothing about baseball. The only sport I love and follow is football. But since I apparently have a panic disorder I am not sure I will allow either child to play football. Assuming I will have a say in the manner (which I probably won't) because of this guy....
And this guy...
Yes, Ryan is my Sports enthusiast if you will. Anything "ball" related he is all about it and then some.
Not that Evan didn't get into the swing of things.....
Becuase he did..However, notice the 3 balls behind him in a neat line.
In fact, here he is arranging the balls in perfect unison.
Here he is again so proud of the fact that he has one more to his collection.
Some things with Evan never change, the boy has been putting things in order since he learned how to use his hands.
My Turn!
Nope not even close....
Then we had a brief "vogue" moment.
And I get to play with my camera some more...
However we have lost Evan to a sandbox "experiment"
Filling up a ballon up with water from the "Pumper Truck" is clearly more entertaining than T-Ball.
Another brief pause for a "Sky Shot"
The budding Tree of course terrifying me becuase pollen is on the way.
In other news we also went to the Beach for a weekend getaway. We belived the weather guy when he said Tybee Island, GA would be in the 70's. So we packed the car and drove 4 hours south.
And found out the next day...
He Lied....
And Lied...
And Lied Some More...
It is okay though we got to walk around and I learned that Tybee Island is an Island of "Signs"
And a Turtle to act silly in front of.
The next day the sun came out and it was much warmer.
And I got my famous "Toes in the Sand" shot
And the Boys got to Play...
And Play..
And of course Get soaking Wet...
THE END!
On behalf of myself and my new camera, thanks for humoring me. I am now off to the Gym where I will proceed to do the "walk of shame" considering it has been 3 months since I have set foot in there.
Ahhh.... Spring has sprung. Say CHEESE!!
