Monday Rewind- 8/8/2011 & Macro Monday

Happy Monday Everyone.  I know I normally post photos for Shoot & Edit on Monday's- but the prompt is Turn on the Hose.  I know, I know- I don't have to stick to the theme to participate- but I am not a go against the grain type.  I know that when I click on someone's blog expecting a particular idea in the photos- I leave feeling a bit disappointed because I was excited to see how one interpreted the idea.  So- since I have been on a kick of trying new things & meeting new bloggers- I decided to give Macro Monday a go today.  

Since not much grows here- we don't have a lot to photograph in the way of flowers.  So when the hubs came home with flowers for the birthday girl on Friday- the camera was in my hand in a matter of a nano-second.  Here are a couple that I captured. 







I took so many photos from the munchkin's birthday that I am sure I will be sharing them all week long.  Here are a couple more.

My dear sweet friend Courtney (you know her from Perfect Imperfections) sent this adorable card - 
here she is reading it.  Thank You Courtney (& family).
