Shylah, Molly, and Michelle

How about we look at the littlest Woodford girls today?

And them with their mama:

And the flower of the day:

George and Georgie

My wonderful in-laws. These crazy kids are still in love after 43 years of marriage.
I seem to have gone from bird of the day to flower of the day.

Another Mother's Day shot and another flower shot

I'm slowly going through my Mother's Day shots. The more photos I take of a certain event or day, the slower they seem to go up on the blog. :-) Don't we all just look incredibly comfortable in front of the camera here? Ha.

Introducing my new online photo gallery

I finally did it--I set up an online gallery to sell prints of my photos. You may have noticed the link go up over there a few days ago. ------------------------------>
What I'm hoping is that you, all my loved ones, will share the link with everyone you know so people will buy my photos and boost my self-esteem (and bank account). :-) And if you think of anywhere I can publicize my link, please let me know that too. Take a peek and let me know what you think. Thanks everyone!

11 Little (?) Woodfords Jumping on a Truck

This is the best of the bunch from our Mother's Day Woodford cousins shots, believe it or not.

Another shot from McLaughlin Garden

Lilac festival

We went to McLaughlin Gardens in South Paris on Sunday. They were having a lilac festival.

Have a cow

Moo!

Cowabunga

Chris is a he-man

Chris is so strong. You should see him flinging those kayaks up on top of the van. I pretend to help, but I just get in the way. He's an ox.
I know I still owe you Woodfords Mother's Day photos. There's a lot of them, and I haven't edited them yet. Sarah's are probably better than mine, anyway.

We're back

We're back from kayaking. Nobody drowned. :-)

Lady's slippers

Chris and I are headed to Range Pond to kayak today. He got a new kayak so he shouldn't fall in this year. Still, though, this is my way of letting you know where to look for us. :-)

Fluffy flowers

Our day at Fenway

Some shots of our day at Fenway Sunday:




You may notice that Cam is missing. He decided that he wanted to work out a deal with Delaney where he could bring a friend (read: girlfriend) to one game and she'd give up her ticket and then he'd do the same. So Delaney brought her friend Nevin. It was his first Red Sox game. Of course if I'd known he was going to get that haircut I might have un-invited him. (Just kidding!)

Before and after

Delaney's braces went on yesterday. Before (this poor girl has more trouble keeping her eyes open in any kind of sunlight):After:

Helmets

Went to the Red Sox Sunday, but I only brought the little camera. We saw 8 home runs. Four of them were ours (Pedroia and Papi back to back, then Papi, then Youkilis), and we won the game.

Bird de le day

Rose-breasted grosbeak:We're headed to the Red Sox game today!

Iris buds

George, my wonderful father-in-law and super gardener, has given us so many bulbs to plant in our yard. The purple irises are getting ready to bloom:

Free coffee

Did you all go get your free iced coffee at Dunkin' Donuts on Thursday? Ours had this cool sand sculpture too. I think the free coffee day was in honor of Joe's birthday. Happy 14th Birthday, Joe!

Sometimes he looks almost normal

Horseshoes

Hey, Woodfords. Bet you'll never guess who this photo makes me think of.
Sarah (my photo buddy), you'll have to get Grammie to send me your photos from Sunday so I can post some of them.

More semi-formal photos

Might as well jump:

Delaney's first semi-formal

A photo from Saturday night, when Delaney attended her first semi-formal dance. I'll have some more for you, but I want to get the permission of her friends' parents first.

Bird on a wire

Happy Mother's Day! What do these photos have to do with Mother's Day? I think my mom will like them.

Bats

This is pretty much our whole life in May. And I love it!

Shaker graveyard

I drove by Shaker Village on the way home from baseball the other day and stopped to take a few more photos. I think their graveyard is really cool. No individual grave markers, just this one in the middle of a simple field.

Chris and Baxter

The sunlight was so pretty the other night Chris was kind enough to indulge me for some photos. I was experimenting with sunflare.

My necklace

My favorite necklace lately. I've been wearing it daily. Not until I photographed it in closeup did I notice the weird grammatical thing. Why the capital L's and lower-case G? Shouldn't it be Let Love Grow, or Let love grow, not Let Love grow? A small thing, but it bugs.

More baseball and a bird

Bird of the day, red-winged blackbird:Some dewdrops:
And some baseball shots I like:
