Happy Mother's Day sooc

My mom loves frogs and I loved the bright colors in this one, hope she likes it!

Tiny trinkets

Sometimes I go to work with my husband. He spends longer driving to plants than he does inside the plant so, I ride along and keep him company. When he came out of the plant this time, he had a small brown bag and told me there were three things in it. I couldn't believe it.



When I opened the bag I found a manatee, a bird and a frog (for my mom), each so small - and detailed!





The manatee's belly even looks accurate. :0)

Magnet Macro Monday #122

I love playing with the camera! Shallow depth of field. . .

Huge depth of field.

I found a whole posse of adorable animal mini-magnets. I was especially attracted to the little ducks!

My mom collects frogs, so I had to share some of them with her.

The fishes were adorable too! I shared some with my daughter.

Even their bums are cute!  I shared some with my grandma.

Popping, Hopping Macro Monday

Do you see what I see?  Yes, it's a piece of popcorn, but what else is it?

Did you say, 'frog'?  Well that's what my aunt saw while eating her bowl of popcorn years ago.  SO she promptly wrapped a piece of popcorn in tissue paper, boxed it up and sent it from Texas to Missouri to my mother (her sister).  My mother loves frogs of all kinds so this piece of popcorn has been sitting in her china cabinet for many years now.  It looks freshly popped doesn't it?

THANK YOU to each one of you for playing along!  I love seeing what you come up with each week!

Check out those mossy rocks!

Why, those aren’t rocks at all.

There were turtles popping up all over this small pond.

Tiny turtles.

And a frog watched on.

Sorry for the delay in adding Mr Linky, I can't put it in too far ahead of time or it won't work and I have been away from the computer all day (doing an engagement shoot in Madison) - whew, what a weekend!

Macro Monday - A Bird in the Bush

Where there’s berries there’s often birds.

And I looked and looked and did find some birds.

However, they were camera shy!

This lone frog was the only creature willing to pose for a moment.

I will be slow making the rounds due to currently being in Missouri and having to borrow my mom's computer to do this post but as soon as I can I will be around. :)

Boys and Bows

You may remember seeing this cake (DQ of course) a few days ago. We had thought we would take Haden camping for his birthday but with the weather we keep having we wussed out. We did however take him to the Archery Range to sight his new bow.

Dennis needed to sight his too. I guess this is when they adjust the little dealybobber to where they can hit the bull’s-eye.

Looks like they need a little more adjusting.

I quickly got bored and went in search of critters.

I found a singing sparrow.

Boring.

But then a tiny frog came hopping by. He stopped long enough to say hello!

And as Haden was doing this, I looked up and. . .

. . . a hawk soared above.

I’m not so sure Haden noticed.

While the ants busily built their home,

Haden practiced on. In fact we left him there, maybe we’ll pick him up next year.
