Stuffed up…

Well, I have a blasted darn cold again.   I really can’t believe it!  It seems I pick up every little thing these kids come to school with.  My face feels like it’s going to explode… my sinuses are sooooo stuffed.

I have a few quick things to post.  Let me first apologize for the poor quality of the photos.  I’m trying to learn new things with my camera so I forced myself into manual… which is hit or miss at getting it “right” at this point.

This first layout is my challenge from Random Chaos (#50) this week.  The photos were taken at night with flash as we celebrated Deena’s birthday.  I really dislike indoor nighttime flash photography.  If you have any hints for better photos… I’d love to hear them!

I used mostly Basic Grey Two Scoops products here.

I promised to share a few pix from when Nate was here last week.  Look at this hair he has… it’s soooo LONG!  He is such an earthy crunchy geek…

And I did get this photo of all three of them… I love how this turned out.  I even tried my hand at a little photoshop.  I’m s-l-o-w-l-y getting over my fear of it.

And just when you *think* you’ve got it… within seconds of snapping the last photo, this broke out–

Boys will be boys!

Boys will be boys!

All I have to say about that is…. HARRUMPH!!!!!!!!!!  LOL!!!

Have a fantastic Thursday!  Thanks for stopping by!
