They honestly all play so well together and never ever get in any kind of arguments. Is he cute or what! And he is so stinkin' sweet and well behaved. <br /><br />OK so tonight is the deadline for entering to win the iTunes gift card. I really appreciate everyone who's already commented. It's a lot more fun knowing who comes around to visit. I hope you guys stick around and visit me regularly. Maybe I'll be having some other give-a-ways in the future. But I will be back tomorrow to post the winner. The name will be drawn out of a bowl. I think maybe I'll let Colby draw the name in the morning. So come back to see who wins!<br /><br />I think I may start posting the stats on my photos that I post. I know I always like to know how someone has achieved the results they've gotten and so I'll start posting my stats with the photos.<br /><br />On this shot I used my 85mm lens at f2.2 with a shutter speed of 400. My ISO was 200. I used the "honey" action by <a href="http://actions.lilyblue.com/purchase.html">Lilyblue</a> and the frame is from <a href="http://www.ittybittyactions.com/vintage.htm">ittybitty actions</a>.<br /><br />Thanks for looking!Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02465496529905972275noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1821779553977244242.post-1268465437944583172009-01-07T19:32:00.002-05:002009-01-07T19:35:07.652-05:00Happy Hump Day!Today I was trying to get some shots of Jacob when Max came running up to give him a big lick on the face.

Sunny with highs in the mid 60s. After so much rain we were all ready to get out of the house. Ralph and I loaded up the boys and the scooters and headed up to the basketball court. The boys had so much fun. We had scooter races with friends and played basketball. After a few hours of all this energy burning fun we headed out for some Mexican food. On the way home we rented Space Chimps and we all went home and watched it. The boys enjoyed the movie and Ralph and I enjoyed watching the boys enjoy it. LOL. <br />And believe it or not somewhere in between all that fun Ralph and I took down Christmas. We knew that was going to be the best weather all week and wanted to go ahead and get everything out of the yard and put away. I must say it's so nice to have reclaimed my house from all the holiday clutter. I love how cluttered it is when I first put everything out but it's very satisfying to have it all put back in the attic. <br />Hope you all have a wonderful New Year's eve and may you be very blessed in 2009!!!Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02465496529905972275noreply@blogger.com1
