5 generations Macro Monday

Well life has been so busy lately that I haven't been able to spend time with my macro lens, hoping to change that soon, so I hope you don't mind that I'm sharing a couple of photos my husband took while we were in Missouri last weekend.

This was the first time ever that we've been able to get all five generations together. We started with grandma at the top, then my mom, then me, next my daughter and the tiny one is my granddaughter.

Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. :) MM started on Sept 29, 2008 - THANX to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

This one didn't turn out quite like we thought it would but still, Adrianna is holding a dogwood stem, then her mama, me, then my mom, then grandma - going round and round like a rose, lol.

Hands up!

Things have been a little chaotic around here lately and I almost forgot to share the ornaments I made out of the grandkids hands. Rather than trace around their hands multiple times I traced them each once on paper, then used it as a template on the dough. I used an exacto knife to cut the dough and a straw to make the hole for ribbon to be inserted. I then used a sharpie to write their name and Christmas 2009 on the back of the ornament.
