It’s another photo mash-up today as I link up with Like Mother, Like Daughter for {pretty, happy, funny, real} and with Cari for Theme Thursday: Out. The other day we were all in the house cleaning and doing Saturday chores when I could not bear to be cooped up in the house any longer. The weather was gorgeous so I told Brian we needed to take a break and get out for a little fresh air. It was funny when I checked for the theme this week and realized it was OUT. So here are the photos from our afternoon out.
{pretty}
We took a walk on one of the little nature trials by our house. There are not many flowers this time of year but I was able to find a few here and there.
Β I love this shot of Brian and Matthew. It makes me so happy to have a husband that is such an incredible dad. Swoon.
Forget the scenery and the flowers, the boys favorite part of the walk is through the tunnel where they scream like mad to hear their echo.
In the meantime, Bella and I chat and laugh at the boys as I snap photos. (Next time I will get a pic of both of us too!)

Okay, I ran out of “out” photos so I’ll share this pic from the Planner Addicts Photo Challenge hosted by A Bowl Full of Lemons. Day 20 was a sample of our handwriting. π
Thanks to Cari and LMLD for hosting!

Bobbi, your handwriting is so pretty. I’ll show this to my daughter to inspire her. By the way, what camera do you use? Your flowers turned out very vivid.
Thanks, Anabelle. I have a Nikon 5100 with the standard lens. I am still learning so I haven’t gotten into manual mode yet. I am a bit afraid to try!
Little boys walking with Dads is swoon worthy. π Beautiful flowers!
Thanks, Madeline. I need to print that one out. π
Of course your pictures are all gorgeous, and I love that tunnel. But the handwriting! Ach! I am always jealous of nice handwriting! I can barely read mine.
Thanks, Rebekah. You are so sweet. π
Such beautiful flower shots!
Thanks, Annery! π I love taking flower shots because they stay still while I finally get the perfect photo. LOL π Thanks for stopping by the blog.
All of them beautiful! I’d love to know what camera body/lens you use.
Thanks, Lucy! I have the Nikon 5100, just the standard lens. Iβve only had it for about 6 months and I am a complete novice so I am still learning. Thanks for stopping by the blog! π
So much beauty! (Even in your handwriting!)
Thanks, Rebecca! My daughter has the same writing, (Itβs too early to tell with the boys.) Maybe it is a catholic school thing. LOL. Thanks for stopping by the blog! π
