birthday party fun...

We were invited to a birthday party at Acrofit this past weekend and the boys had so much fun. Sean was jumping into the foam pit right along with all the kids... It's a perfect location for a party during the summertime heat.

aperture

aperture f/1.8, ISO 400, shutter 1/800, 50mm
aperture f/22, ISO 400, shutter 1/6, 50mm

...well, I am taking an online photography class and this week we are experimenting with aperture. I understood aperture before taking this class, but wasn't sure how to apply it effeciently to get the results I wanted...now I feel like I can.

vintage photoshop action...

I thought these photos of Sean's birthday turned out so cool when I applied a vintage action to them...I love it. I can't figure out where I got this action besides the fact it's called "Ally's vintage"...If I run across where I found it, I will post the link...TFL.

Girls Weekend

I always look forward to my yearly girls weekends...but expecially this year. With me being pregnant the thought of me only having to worry about myself for four whole days was paradise. It was a refreshing break filled with sun, fun and so many laughs! We filled three rooms with 13 girls, tons of food and stuff everywhere! It was great. I am already looking forward to next year...

Chuck E Cheese's

We took the boys to a birthday party at Chuck E Cheese's and they had so much fun. I wasn't feeling well, so i had to rely on getting some picts of the boys from others...this is the cutest one I ended up with.
