Play Ball!

Spring for our family is filled with many things...
One of the main ones is BASEBALL!!
Opening Day, Batting Practices, Sunflower Seeds, Spring Training, One..Two..Three.. Strikes Your Out, etc.
We spend countless hours every spring at the baseball field. Much like how every fall you will find us on the football field.

Sometimes we get a little, you could say, restless. Time for a Photo Challenge!!

After seeing THIS POST...
That was inspired by THIS PERSON...

I thought I'd give the old Duet Photography thing a try. To spice up our time spent at the Chatsworth Junior Baseball League.

These first two shots are by my step-daughter. (Age: 11)



These last two were shot by me. (Age: Old)



All of this is what happens...
WHEN YOU GIVE A GIRL A CAMERA.

*I know that I am supposed to post them as a diptych (two photographs paired together) & side-by-side...
But I don't have that part down just yet, bare with me! : )

Girls Night Out!!

Oh yes it's LADIES NIGHT
And the feeling's right
Oh yes it's LADIES NIGHT
Oh what a night.
-Kool and the Gang


Here's my mom, Jen, Tracey & Becky.

I finally got a LONG overdue GIRLS NIGHT OUT!
And when I say long overdue, I mean my child is 14 months old & this is the first time I have really gone "OUT" out since she was born.

All thanks to my sister, Tracey with the help of some very incredible women.
The special event was put on by HP & SNAPFISH.

We had snacks, drinks & chocolate.
We mixed, mingled & networked.
We laughed, we cried, we learned.

There was a holiday photography session, by TRACEY.
There was story telling , by JEN.
There was a live musical performance, by DANA.
There was even Arts & Crafts!

It was an evening meant to stir up our creativity, and to inspire us to give of our gifts.
It did just that, and I LOVED every minute of the evening!
I can't wait to get the Girls together again....
Oh what a night!
