At www.iheartfaces.com this weeks competition is all about bubbles! Well I have quite a few pictures of my kids blowing bubbles, but this is my favorite bubble picture by far....this is my baby girl in bubble bath, with all her rubber duckies! This was also one of my first attempts at bouncing my flash :)

Funny faces and iheartfaces



Here is my choice for the contest...this is a 4 year old little girl, photographed with her newborn baby sister. I think you can see by her expression that she is not quite sure what to make of the new addition to the family...The princess now has to share her throne :)




I am entering this photo into the www.iheartfaces.com weekly photo competition for 'Crazy, silly, funny faces' Come on over and check out all the great entries!

OK, gonna give it a try..."My story in photos" Summer Edition..


Can it be? Is this what it will take to get me blogging?

I have had this blog for a while and never do anything with it....ever. So along comes www.iheartfaces.com and they have these weekly contests...I LOVE a good contest! So, I start entering, then...holy crap, I win one! Now I am feeling the push to have an actual 'Blog' to enter from, instead of using my flickr.

Anyhow, this week is not a contest week, its a blogging week....so, here I am, blogging about....My Story in Photos, Summer Edition! Here it is, for your viewing pleasure :)

This summer, we have done ALOT of swimming...

At the beach....



In the pool...we learned that Daddy Longlegs can walk on water :eek:


and if you hold real still dragonflies will land on your hand...






We spent lots of time sunbathing...





We splashed in waterfalls...



And along the way, I had some awesome opportunities to take some amazing pictures of my girls...stopping time for just a moment, capturing their innocence.



And celebrating the joy of my children playing in the waves at sunset.






It has been a glorious summer!

I have been entering photos into the www.iheartfaces.com blog weekly photo contests for a month or two now. This is the first time I have placed :) I love this image because it is my baby girl, on the beach, in Panama City Beach. her and I went out for a walk, and of course I brought my camera. I feel I captured the innocence, her beauty....thank you again for the first place win!
