Days 144-157ish

Okay, I'm finally posting the pictures that have been on my camera for almost two weeks. With school finishing up for the year, I didn't get a picture everyday. Like everyone else that has kids or teaches school, this time of the year is HECTIC! Here are the 8 that I took in that span of time.

Storms hit Fort Worth and we even had to duck and cover because of tornados on the ground near us. Kind of scary!


One of my 5th graders climbing the rock wall at the overnight field trip we took them on.


Using teamwork to hoist each other through the tractor tire suspended 5 feet in the air.

Another of my students shooting a bow and arrow for the first time. These city kids had a great time tromping through the woods.

What is a bubble bath without bubble beards?

100 degrees = pool time!

Cameron and some of her BFFs at awards night.

Graduating from Kindergarten

New posts coming soon

I am very behind on posting. I have been taking pictures, but I have been swamped trying to get the end of the school year wrapped up. As many of you know, I teach school and we are only days away from being done. Tomorrow is my official last day before summer can begin. I have so many pictures from this week and part of last week but just haven't had a spare moment to upload them and post on other blogs. I will catch up this weekend.

I hope I haven't lost all of my followers. I am still alive and will be joining you all on this 365 blogging adventure again this weekend. I can't wait to see what has been going on. I've missed you all.

Day 143

Callie gave Eric a spit bath last night. He claimed she was licking away any remaining hair he had back there. Took this one with my phone so the quality isn't great. It was all I had handy at the time. Didn't want to miss the moment.

Days 139-142

Day 139 - A bumper crop in the garden.

Day 140 - After the rain.

Day 141 - Working on her report about Gray Wolves.

Day 142 - A never ending job after the rains this week.

Day 138

Playing hopscotch right before dark. I'm getting used to my new lens. The biggest adjustment is the fixed focal length. So far I'm loving it.

Don't ask why she has on those winter boots. She loves them and chooses them over regular shoes most of the time. Wonder if she'll still choose them when it's 110 degrees this summer?

Day 137

Wheat field near our house. Almost ready for harvest.

Day 136

I received my new 50mm lens today. I'm so excited to start playing around with it. Today I just snapped one in the flowerbeds of the daisies. I wanted to see if I could achieve bokeh. I'll have to practice some more to get the lighting right, but not today. I'm off for a girls night out at a friend's to watch the season premier of Real Housewives of New Jersey. Reality TV is my guilty pleasure.

I promise I will do better on commenting this week!!!!
