Just for fun

The girls were sick this weekend so our fun trip to Clemson for the FSU game (GO TIGERS!) was cancelled. Instead, we had a pretty uneventful weekend dealing with runny noses.

I've been working on learning how to shoot in manual with my camera and I'm finally getting some decent pictures. Normally when I take my camera off of the auto setting, all I get is either grainy photos or just a black picture. So I'm excited to finally be learning how to properly use my camera! :) These were several of my favorites from this weekend.

No bibs for this little lady. She is such a messy eater that I have to totally drape her with a kitchen towel. Love those little piggies sticking out!

Anna Cate "swimming like a mermaid." She loves bath time and is convinced wearing this head band in the bath transforms her into a mermaid.

  5. hey mary catherine. i don't think i've ever actually met you, but i check out your blog from time to time! your kids are adorable! this is lauren by the way--i work with will at hay hill...

    anyway, just wondering what approach you're using to learning more about the manual modes... i have the same problem where i know a little about them but not enough to fully take advantage of my camera. would love to know your recommendation! thanks : )
