The 4th of July is my FAVORITE holiday! There’s something about the big boom that creates a beautiful display in the sky that i LOVE!! But, I had a few issues this year when trying to photograph them! Since, Cleveland did not have their display (booooo Cleveland), we went out to my sister in laws house then shot some off in our neighborhood that Sunday evening. Being so close to the fireworks and not having a wide enough angled lens caused me to ‘cut off’ the fireworks. I am still happy with the results, but next year I will definately attend a big display somewhere so that I am guaranteed to get the best picture!!

Enjoy!

Meet Dylan..my first born

He turns 10 on July 8th. I can’t believe how big he has gotten, and apparently the more ’serious’ look is cooler than smiling for a few pictures! Of course, this isnt the only picture, but it’s a sneak peak of whats to come. I love my little handsome boy, and I can’t believe he’s fixing to be a whopping TEN years old..makes me feel old and sad, but at the same time  incredibly happy as I get to watch him grow as a smart, loving, honest and caring little boy! Man time needs to slow down, before I know it i’ll be saying ‘man’ instead of ‘boy’, lol!!!!!

Gotta love it. This last weekend we were able to take the family and go camping. It was relaxing and I know the kids had a blast. This was my beautiful view from Saturday night (who would want to leave this?)!!
