What a week! Some fun stuff, some not so fun stuff ... but a good week overall. Let's take a look ...
8 - My first butterfly capture of the year. Unfortunately the butterfly was being elusive and staying near the top of the lilacs. Not to worry, there will be plenty more butterfly photos to come as we will be raising Monarchs again this year.
9 - A USAF C-130 plane was flying over the playground when Alex and I stopped by so he could burn off some energy after preschool. Several cool things about this photo ...
{one} my friend Jeannie's son was in this plane for ROTC,
{two} she bought the photo from me (my first photography sale!),
and {three} this photo was picked as a Top 5 by Inspire Happiness Daily!

That makes 3 weeks in a row one of my photos got picked! That just blows me away!
10 - My friend, Laura, invited us to join them for a day at the Pittsburgh Zoo.
11 - Alex and I went for a walk on a local community trail. When I told him to go get his shoes on, he came back with his cowboy boots on. I thought the boots looked really cute with his shorts. :) And so did all the ladies we passed on the trail.
12 - We finally hit 80 degrees so we broke out the sprinkler. Honey, our golden retriever, loves it just as much as the kids do. Maybe more!
13 - A jellyfish from Tuesday's zoo trip. (Sick day for me - strep throat. Keira came down with strep throat and missed school Wednesday-Friday - started meds Thursday. I started to get sick Thursday afternoon/evening. I started meds yesterday. Still not feeling great but better than yesterday.)
14 - Nick should have had his photo taken/posted yesterday (the 13th is the anniversary of his birthday), but being sick, well, I forgot. Or didn't care. Or both. :) So I posted a photo I took of him on Tuesday - a day late. Obviously I'm extending myself some grace this week.
My niece's birthday party is going on this afternoon. Alex was mad at me this morning for being sick and telling him that we weren't going to be able to go. So he decided he was riding his bike there. In the rain. He got halfway down the driveway before I made him come back. It was actually pretty funny. I wish I had taken his picture. So I called my mom and asked her if she wouldn't mind swinging by and taking the kids with her. She did and now it is so quiet in the house, I can hear all the clocks ticking. I'm going to take advantage and spend some time working on a photo book.
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

Just love the texture on 9! What a great week! :)
That jellyfish is AMAZING!
Wow! Great photos. Love the airplane and the elephant. That jelly fish is neat too. Thanks for linking up.
I hope you feel better, Kimberly. Strep throat? Ugh. Wish I could send you a good book with some hot tea through this computer.
I love the cowboy boots and jellyfish. Hope you feel better.
The jellyfish shot is really cool! :D
