Storms

So. . . I think my inner photographer is now budding. I took this picture tonight during the storms ( I was safely placed on my porch, no fear of being hit. .. . I think :) )



Yes, It's lightning. I'm not going to tell you how many pictures I had to take to get the "Perfect one" or how long I stood outside in the storm. But, the important part is, that I GOT IT! I'm so proud.

My Growing Boy

So, I got this wonderful camera for my birthday last year, and I've taken a few snap shots of Gentry and of my stampin' stuff. . . but I got the idea yesterday that its time for me to really learn how to use it for family pictures. Here are a couple of shots of Gentry that I took yesterday.

Craft Time

Saturday we attended a local festival and at the Home Depot booth Gentry got to make a birdhouse (with a little help from mommy). then last night we decided to paint the birdhouse so we could put it up in the yard.

As you can see he's extremely proud of his birdhouse that HE made!

He was getting a little frustrated that I kept taking pictures. but, it's my job! :)

not that concentration requires the tongue being stuck out. I guess that runs in the family. He was extremely excited about getting the house up so that a bird could sleep in in. I'll try to post pictures when we finally get the birdhouse up in the yard.

A while back we took Gentry to the Tennis Courts for the first time. He had fun for a little while. He's quite the little independant perfectionist. He wants to do it HIS way, but gets quite upset when the ball doesn't react like he expected.


He's explaining to his daddy the "correct" way to play.




He got frustrated rather quickly and decided he'd rather sit and watch.

Happy Easter!

Just wanted to share a few pictures from today's Easter festivities.


Gentry was so excited to get to spend some time with Papaw. I think Papaw had fun also.

I know this picture is completely cheesy, but for some reason I really wanted this picture this year. I think it turned out okay.

Then it was off to hunt Easter eggs with our new spider man basket that the Easter bunny brought. Gentry was quite excited to be hunting eggs.

My cousin brought her new puppy over today to enjoy the festivities. Panda really wanted to help Gentry look for eggs. Everyone enjoyed playing with this adorable bundle of puppy.

Thought you might like to see another picture of this cutie! And just for the record, no. . . this isn't our puppy.

Gentry is showing Aunt Katie what all he found.

Thanks for looking!

New Video

Gentry got a recorder (flute) for Christmas and has kept it with him all around the house ALL THE TIME recently. I took a little video of him earlier in the week. Enjoy!
