Christmas morning...

Here are some shots from Xmas morning! I messed up with my external flash. I completely brainfarted and forgot that the SS controls the ambient light and the aperture controls the flash coming in and I flashed WAY too bright. So once again...PS to the rescue. I ran PW's "Seventies" action on these. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this action. I lowered the warming layer to about 75% and that was it! I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas...

Our stockings full of fun...

Standing on my couch to get a high view of our living room. The unwrapped presents are from Santa.

Haylee LOVING the chair Santa brought her...

Lil Nugget with her mouth full of who knows what...

She was VERY into Christmas & Santa this year...

And of course Haylee is ALWAYS into Christmas & Santa...

Haylee happily playing in her room with her new toys...

Hope everyone has a SAFE & Happy New Year!

Trampolines and safety nets...

Santa was VERY good to the girls this year and bought them a HUGE trampoline. Needless to say they LOVE it! And of course Santa wouldn't bring them one without one of those wonderful safety nets...which are a MUST have! But I realized one thing...it's not good for photography! Lol! Trying to get good action stopping shots with crazy expressions and hair flying is made a lil harder when shooting through this wonderful yet annoying safety gate. So I need to learn the best time of day to take shots that DON'T look like these! Lol! But I am bound and determined. For now tho, here are the ones I took of the girls jumping after waiting 2 days for the rain to stop and the trampoline to dry. I threw a grunge action on them because well...they were crappy and needed something FUNKY! Haylee's friend Rachel came over to jump too. She's the cute lil one with the bangs!

Here's a wide shot so you can see the whole thing...



Avyree takin a spill...


Gettin pretty high for a 2 year old on a trampoline for the first time...

Haylee taking it easy. She slept in her new pink fluffy chair that Santa brought her and kinked her back. Isn't she too young for that?


And here's the high jumper Rachel ROCKIN it....


Man this girl can get some air...


The three blonde girls...


They sure are cute together, even through the net...

Since Haylee's back has been feeling better she's learned to do a forward flip. Can't wait to get those shots. She's VERY proud!

Well I hope you enjoyed seeing the girls playing in their new toy. I'll be working on our Xmas pics tonight so come back tomorrow if you'd like to see them.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

The MANY faces of Avyree...

As you'll see...she LOVES taking baths...especially in the sink...

Some random shots I took last weekend...

We took the girls outside last weekend and let them have some fun in the dirt! It was quite the comedy hour. And some other outside shots!
