A few (more) of my favorites...

I took a LOT of pictures this summer. What? You didn't notice?? Well...it's true. In fact, a lot may be an understatement! :-) I learned how to wrangle my camera a little better and Lia seemed to enjoy taking part in our little photo shoots. It was a dreamy summer...full of fun. And pictures. Did I mention the sheer volume of pictures I snapped??

Well...I am now beginning the task of organizing said photos...helped by the beginning digital photography class I took last night. It may take a while...but I am determined to organize, categorize and BACK UP all my photos with an external hard drive. (see how official I sound already? And it was only a three hour class! I'm not even kidding. :-))

As I started going through some of the photos, I found some previously unpublished pictures that I love! I'm hoping our lives settle down soon and we can get some new ones...but until then...I bring you some of my favorite pictures from our summer of (camera) love!

Love the all, but especially the swing shot. (I'm partial to swings.)

We have an external hard drive, too, but the Husband takes care of all of that. I am - how shall I say this - technologically challenged in that regard!

Drat -- that would be love THEM all.

I. Hate. Typos.

(Especially when they are mine.)

That Last one totally cracks me up! I know another little girl that makes that same face - now that is a must get image for this weekend - L & L side by side with that face :D

I can share with you my system for organizing - I take a few images here and there :D

Ladybug hugs,

P.S. Thanks for the sweet comment on my post. I get all teary eyed too at the moments we are having with Katie that I once just dreamed about.

Beautiful!! Are you going to run a contest on just how many pictures you took?? Could be interesting to see the numbers??

Darling! Her hair looks so cute in a headband. Now I a fetting about not having my photos backed up! Yikes! After what I did to my blog, you would think I'd learn!

I hope you learn lots of valuable information in your class!

Of course you have a great subject to practice on. Hope the willingness keeps on going.

These are wonderful. I envision a collage with "Summer 08" on the matting! :) You'll love to look at these in the middle of winter!
