A few more...

After seeing Brylee's pics, the girls decided that they wouldn't mind having a few pictures taken. The boys, still, wanted nothing to do with it. I think that I probably could have talked Michael into it, if the older to boys weren't around. *sigh* They are getting too big! A few years ago they would have been excited to get their pictures taken.

Anyway... these didn't turn out quite as well, but they are still cute. I think that I now want to save up for a good camera, and maybe a photography class in the future, because it is really fun!

Experimenting

For a long time, I have wanted t be able to take good pictures. I don't have a nice camera, and I won't be able to afford a nice camera anytime soon - but, I kept thinking, there has to be some way to take some decent looking photos with my cheap digital camera. I started reading online, and found alot of helpful sites that offered some really good tips.

So with a $40 camera, Picasa (free photo editing program), and Brylee (the only one of my 6 kids who was willing to have her picture taken) I got the following pics:

They are far from professional, but I think they turned out cute!

Alysa's story

My Wild Thing
by
Alysa Roberts
My Wild thing's name is Aly. She looks hairy and has sharp teeth. Aly has black claws. My wild thin eats cheesy nachos. She like to do cartwheels because her favorite thing to do is gymnastics. We play together at the park. We go to the hair styler and get new hair styles. We see other monsters at the hair stylers. They look cute. They have cute hairstyles. My wild thing and I like to be together.
