Friday Afternoon Photos

Last week was a crazy busy week for me.  But I spent Friday afternoon hanging out with my 2 boys (Cole the human kid and Bauer the puppy) and of course I had my camera ready! I just love shots that are not posed or planned - real life at its best!  Here are few shots form our afternoon of fun together.

This is my favorite random shot photo!!!  They were playing away and I just happened to snag this shot moments before Bauer leaped on to Cole.  

I am entering this photo into the the Simple Things Challenge at Simple As That

 Bauer at 3 months old!

 They were having so much fun together!

 I never thought we looked much a like but I see it in this picture!!!

Cute dog!

This picture made me notice how big Coles feet have gotten an how long his lets are! I remember when he could not touch the foot rest while on the seat! 

Have a great week and remember to snap a few of your own simple shots!

Sisters & ScrapFIT

This is one of the only photos I have of me and my sister - especialy a recent picture. I am generaly the one with the camera so its hard to be in the picture sometimes.  I had my mom take this pictures of us with my phone while at a summer festival.  We had a good day, the 3 of us (and Cole). I hope we have more days like that together. Sam is 12 years younger than I and its been tough to grow up 'together' because of our age difference but as we are both adults now we seem to be getting a long great!  She is the only sibling I have and she is important to me.   I really liked this photo and could not wait to scrap it.  I used the Neighborhood collection from Create Paper and I used the Sew Easy Tool from We R Memory Keepers on this layout.  You can purchase the products the products I used at The Paper Trail as well as a tutorial I made how to use the Sew Easy Tool!

Its also time for out next Workout at ScrapFIT!

Workout #51 Salt & Pepper
