Beautiful Black and White entry

Here is my entry for iheartfaces Beautiful Black and White photo challenge.

A warm day with Mya

Today my youngest daughter Mya came home from school asking me to take some spring pics of her since it was such a nice pre-spring day. It was over 50 today which is warm for this time of year.  The challenge of the day was the lack of green grass and the over abundance of grey and brown.  But outside we ventured.

In the black and whites I am just playing with this function in PS for the iheartfaces beautiful black and white photo challenge.

So I last introduced you to Gretchen, my daughters newly adopted cat.  You see my daughter will start vet school this fall so I am obviously proud of her.  As such, I will be sharing excerpts of her adventures with her pets and projects.  Speaking of projects...  While at college she has been part of a research project for pastured pigs at the organic farm. This cute little piggy is one of the piglets they had in the Spring of 2011.  They will again have new arrivals this spring.  If interested you can follow them on face book at
Michigan State Pastured Pigs

Meet Gretchen

Gretchen is our house guest for a week.  Maybe a little longer.  She belongs to my oldest daughter who is away at college.  Since Gretchen has a very strong personality, she is finding it challenging to get along with her apartment mate Sully.  While the persons are figuring out how they can all live together peacefully Gretchen is on a short break with us.  We really enjoy having her!

Evie was having so much fun in the garden this summer.  I thought this was just so cute.  Her painted little toe nails with her adorable skirt.

An Evening at the Pumpkin Patch

River is so in love with this pumpkin!

This is a great capture.  River doesn't really like to have his photo taken.  This will be my entry this week in I Heart Faces photo challenge  Autumn Splendor.

Evie is trying to run away from the camera, but I love the light behind her.

Evie and River were so cute at the pumpkin patch. They ran, giggled and picked out the cutest jack-o-lanterns for Halloween.
