Getting Canon "Rebel-lious"

See what I did there?

So it's lame. That's fine. I accepted my own cheesiness long, long ago.

The Sheriff needs a haircut, and this past week he woke from his a bit too short of a nap with the sweetest sleepy eyes and the cutest bedhead. (Every mother thinks her child has the cutest bedhead, and those thoughts are ones to keep the world turning, my friends.)

I hadn't taken out the "real" camera as I call it in a while, and I'm no photographer. I have no clue how to edit pictures. Maybe one of you awesome bloggers will fly your editing selves down here one day and teach me. I'll supply the ritas and queso. You bring the Adobe.

I just knew in my heart that his look on that day was one I'd want to remember for my life.



Something tells me he must think he's still dreaming in this next one.







We went out for a wagon ride to grab the mail and blow bubbles in the shaded but still utterly hot garage. Somehow I captures this face. If only my lighting were right! But I gave it the old "black and white" and it makes me smile.

I love these photos and your cheesiness. I'll book a flight you get the ritas and queso ready. You don't think the husbands would mind if we had a blog weekend and ignored fathers day right? :)

These photos are the best. Love those curls!!! Can't wait to see them in person again.

your pictures came out cute! love that face in the last one!

I actually have taken pictures for people on the side for extra cash in the past (i'm self taught) and I am pretty proficient in photoshop. :)

If you ever have any questions about photography stuff (like correct exposure, etc) feel free to ask! :)

wish you were closer we could take a class together. Learning PSE is a lesson in torture for me.

PS I think these are great pictures!

Love these photos- too cute. What kind of camera do you have? I am really wanting one and I hope if I gather enough info and pin one down my husband will agree. Until then I will just fly by for the marg and dip and company :)
