Roll Tide, February 16, 2013

This was a fun time. I asked Dad to go with me the the Alabama vs. South Carolina basketball game at Coleman Coliseum. Then Fred and Ian got tickets also. It was a fun time making memories. Dad and I had seats on the floor. I think Dad had a really good time. There is always a theatrical event to go to one of these games. This one was on TV. I must say I had a GREAT time! I hope we get to do it again soon.

Dexter

One night Amelia's teacher posted that she needed someone to keep her dog, dexter. She was headed to the Alabama Football game and didn't want to leave him for that extended amount of time. So I volunteered Amelia and the kids to babysit Dexter. Now the tricky part is that my husband is not a fan of other animals! I didn't tell him until that morning (about an hour before they arrived) we had a surprise for him. Boy was it! Here are some picturesfrom that day. It was so cold outside and sunny. I love these pictures because of the shadows and then the color of the pics.

White Flower

This is a pic I took. I distorted the edges and then placed the watermark.

Watermark

Well I have been researching all night how to place WATERMARKS on pictures. I finally figured it out and have put a pic below. I also want to continue seeing if there is an easier way for me to do this. I guess it's all about short cuts. We're always looking for one. So far, I am proud of myself for this. I didn't mess with the font but I did like it. This is a picture of my oldest daughter, Amelia. In this picture she just turned four years old and we were waiting the arrival of her brother. We had walked to the park in our neighborhood for me to get some exercise.

Cheering on the Hoover 70 lb. Bucs

Yes. I have turned into THAT mom. And I love it! My son tried football for the first time and this season started off rough. We had to get use to the football pads, pants, helmet, mouth piece, and of course the HOT weather. Now we are over the hump and LOVE it. So I have taken pictures throughout the season. I also just love to take pictures. Here are some more.
