There was more fun to be had at the fair on Sunday afternoon. Josh enjoyed the rides, and his favorite feathered friends. At one point, he asked for a certain stuffed animal, which you had to win at the “shoot the water gun at the clown’s mouth and be the first to get your monkey […]

The deer have been out and about quite a bit lately during the day. They normally turn and run away as soon as I slow down the car, but this one stayed for a minute and let me attempt to get a photo with my iPhone.
This weekend was the Washington County Fair, Rhode Island’s state fair. My family goes every year and enjoys the food, animals, rides, competitions, and concerts, in addition to made-in-RI items for sale. This year, I entered the photo contest for the first time and actually won a few ribbons! We were also able to see

I bunked Zumba tonight and went for a walk instead. The weather has been so gorgeous lately; I just wanted to enjoy it and all the beautiful scenery. I caught some of the lovely sunset on the way home, as well.

The hummingbirds were out in full force today as I worked from home. There were at least two out there, chasing each other around the backyard, stopping to take drinks at the feeder and from the flowers. I captured some photos of one of them (I believe just one) at lunch time. A very pretty

Josh picked me some flowers yesterday, with grandma’s help. “What kind of flowers are they?” I asked. “I don’t know. I think they’re some sort of weeds.” Prettiest weeds I’ve ever seen. 🙂
We had our Rhode Island-only holiday today (Victory Day). I worked for a little while and then packed up some photos to bring down to the site of our state fair, which is coming up in a couple of days. This is my first photo contest, and I am excited. Nervous, too. I hope my

I have a couple of old point-and-shoot cameras that I have been letting Josh play with for the past couple of weeks. He’s loving it, and even though I have seen more than enough photos of his feet, I am enjoying seeing the world through his lens. We went out to shoot some photos of
