Good news, my class was only two days long so this will be my last post about it. I know, it’s going to break your heart. It’s so exciting to see my experiments. I am doing it for you, to enhance my blog photos. The torture will be worth it someday? I hope! Day 2 […]

On Photography Class-Early Lessons
Assignment #1 White Balance. Ummm, teacher, what in the heck is white balance? Normally our eyes compensate for lighting conditions with different color temperatures. A digital camera needs to find a reference point which represents white. It will then calculate all the other colors based on this white point. For instance, if a halogen light […]
On Photography Class
I had the unique opportunity to take a digital photography class at our local museum the C.M. Russell Museum. According to their website “The mission of the C.M. Russell Museum is to collect, preserve, research, interpret and educate on the art and life of Charles M. Russell; the art and life of his contemporaries; and […]
On Photography
When I first started my blog, I didn’t have a camera. My nice point and shoot (also somewhat expensive, but not over the top) camera had broken the year prior. I was really upset and didn’t replace it. So I used the Baby boy’s cheap-o Kodak, for a while. I knew straight away that it wasn’t […]
Cabin Food Challenge
We found out last Wednesday that the roads were clear up to our cabin and our “outside” contractor had finished up his work from last summer. The Baby boy was also away on a float trip down the Smith River so McGyver thought we should head up and “cabin camp” overnight. I was excited to […]
The Wedding Day!
The wedding day! It was a perfect spring day in Las Vegas (view from the bride’s room). The bride was obviously very happy (ok, maybe a little nervous too). Her ladies in waiting (not-sister and soon to be sister in law). And the dress, oh the dress, the perfectly simple, perfectly beautiful dress! Beautiful accessories! This […]
Saturday
The day before the big event. What a busy day, as mother of the bride I found myself being a coordinator, ever try herding cats (Herding Cats on You Tube)? That’s what my day felt like. Trying to get a group together is never easy especially after a bachelorette/bachelor party night and traveling the day […]
It’s a girl thing….
It has been awhile since I’ve had the time to post. Sometimes things in life just don’t allow for mom’s little hobby. Especially when you are the Mother of the Bride! My darling daughter got married this past weekend in Las Vegas! I know, I’m way too young to have a daughter getting married, at least […]
All in a Day
What a day Saturday was, actually what a weekend. Seriously felt like I didn’t have a moment (I did, but I didn’t , you know what I’m talking about). First off I stayed up waaaay to late Friday night, just had to watch the end of My Friends Wedding, because I’ve never seen it before, […]
You can’t always get what you want.
If you read my post on Scones you would have known that what I didn’t want for Mother’s Day was “I didn’t want to have to do anything”. I was hoping McGyver would read the post and he and the Baby boy would clean the house and do the laundry on Saturday so Mother’s Day would […]
