With Father's Day is coming up, the theme this week at <a href="http://iheartfaces.com/">I Heart Faces</a> is "All Boy". My son definitely fits that theme - even with two big sisters as role models. He loves his cars, trucks, trains and dinosaurs and is crazy about anything involving a ball! Oh... and he loves his doughnuts too! </div>

Wow - week 12 already!!! Time is really flying by for me this year. <br />
<br />
I really did not have any idea what I was going to do for this week's theme. None. And I know nothing about The Hunger Games (other than the movie comes out this week!). I almost was going to skip it. Then my daughter brought home her Weekly Reader News magazine from school and on the front cover was a story about the growing hunger problem in the U.S. The article states that more people visited food banks in 2011 then ever before. Some food banks had to reduce the number of items people could have because of the demand. The article goes on to tell kids how they can help: Hold a food drive, get involved (local soup kitchens, etc.), spread the word about hunger in your community. I want to help. My first step was to dig into the pantry. The next step will be delivering and donating to the Food Bank. We need to fix this problem. <br />

My kids cannot 'be still', but these apples were pretty good at it. I also wanted to test out my new lens <i>(Nikon 85mm f/1.4)</i> on some not so squirmy subjects. I still need to practice with it a lot more, but so far I'm loving it! <br />

I just love her sweet little pout in this picture. And you can't tell here, but that pout is covering her super sweet toothless grin - I'll save that for another post!<br />

I wasn't sure how I was going to portray this week's theme, but then Matthew started taking some 'great leaps' while we were outside one morning. I started snapping away and went for the obvious! <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Well, I can't say that we've really had cabin fever this winter. Although it snowed on Sunday night, today was 70 degrees! And we've had several days like that. But on the day pictured below, it was dreary. And rainy. And cold. And it was on the weekend - which makes it even worse. Going outside to play was not an option ... and so I guess a little 'cabin fever' did set in. But that's over now and we are back outside playing soccer and football in the front yard! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">Boy, this week was hard (I feel like I keep saying this!). I wanted a picture of my 2 year old son hugging our dog, but that just didn't happen.. at least not while I was ready to snap the picture. Or, I would have liked a photo of my oldest daughter comforting her little brother after he bumped his head. So sweet, but again, no camera. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">I decided to take some pictures of my daughters, but I questioned whether or not I was truly demonstrating the theme. After all, they fight like crazy. There are those rare moments, though, when I witness the true love they have for each other. They are sisters, bonded forever. And it is my wish and my belief they'll be the best of friends as time goes on and will love looking back on this photo. </div><br />
Or maybe I should have just stuck with the hearts below... ?<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It is Week 6 of <a href="http://my3boybarians.com/">Darcy's Project 52</a> and I am still committed! It is so much fun and it is forcing me to step out of my comfort zone quite a bit. The prompt for this week is 'drink up'. I really wanted to make some sort of fancy, fruity, tropical, drink or a steamy, whipped coffee beverage (not that I can really make either one), but it just didn't happen. What did happen was that I found pretty good deal on a pretty good Pinot Noir. I couldn't resist buying in bulk (ok, well, just 3 bottles)! </div><br />

This sounded easy enough at first, but as I got into it, I realized the challenge really lied within the creativity. My first attempt was a boring shadow of myself holding a camera. I am sure this would have been be fine, but I wanted to keep trying. A few of my other attempts involved a plastic flower and a pinecone. Those weren't so good either. Here are my best attempts, but I still think I can improve...<br />

This week's theme was challenge for me, but it was also a very valuable experience. I learned several things:<br />
<ul><li>How to use the self-timer on my camera</li>
<li>That I look a lot more like my mom than I ever realized</li>
<li>And that I have a new love for Lightroom's adjustment brush -which allowed me to reduce the clarity of my skin, thus reducing my wrinkles! :)</li>
</ul><br />

This week's theme at <a href="http://iheartfaces.com/">I Heart Faces</a> is "By the Book". Emily had been reading "Fox in Socks" by Dr. Suess a few minutes before I snapped this photo. And if you've ever read it, you know just how tiring this book can be! It is full of tongue twisters and it completely exhausts me too! Sleep well little girl - you can finish it later. <br />

This week's theme is "I Dreamed a Dream", inspired by Dr. Martin's Luther Kings famous speech. I thought a lot this theme and about the dreams I had had for myself when I was younger. I realized that my dreams had really come true and that I am living the fairy tale I had imagined for myself - happily married with three beautiful children. <br />
<br />
Now my dreams are for my children. They are so happy and secure right now and I want that for them always. While they sleep, I wonder what they are dreaming about. I wonder what their dreams will be. Who will they become? I want their dreams to come true as well. Sometimes watching them sleep grounds me and reminds me of how just much I have to be thankful for. <br />
<br />
Sweet dreams to all my children. <br />

We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE homemade chocolate chip cookies at our house. It is a miracle that we got them on a plate in order to take a picture, because they certainly do not last very long! And my family thinks I make them better than anyone in the history of chocolate chip cookie making. I must say, they are pretty darn tasty and I secretly eat more than my share! <br />
<br />
But the cookies pictured above were only photographed by me. I didn't make them. I recently passed this special family secret onto my 10 year old daughter and she loves to make them. She gets a little help with the oven, but other than that, she does it all herself! She made this batch because her Grandpa loves them too and he was visiting the next day. She also shared them with us! And they were very good. <br />

I think this is my favorite photo of 2011. I took A LOT of pictures this past year, trying to learn the technical and artistic aspects of photography. I have several good ones and many, many not so good ones. After a December session on natural light, I asked Katie to model for me {once again!}. Even though I tell her, she has no idea how pretty she is. She is a great model too - those eyes and freckles warm my heart. I have many other favorites of her and my other children, but for today, this seems to be the winner. Thank you Katie {and Emily & Matthew too), for putting up with the constant camera clicking! :)<br />

I began my photography studies in early 2011 and I think I came a long way, but I still have a quite a bit to learn. By the end of this year, I want to be comfortable enough with my work to think about a business in this field. I truly love it and can't wait to further my knowledge! I can't think of a better way to get myself motivated than to join Darcy's Project 52!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
