The Great Salt Lake

This place was my beach when I was a kid. My mom use to take us here on hot afternoons and we'd cool off in the Salty lake. I LOVED it! I thought my boys should experience it and I thought it'd be a fun place for pictures. The song "The Great Salt Lake" by Band of Horses was running through my head the whole time.
 If ya haven't heard it you can listen here. 
 If you've never seen The Great Salt Lake you can get information on it Here.

Country life for me

I don't know if it's the book I'm reading or if I'm just tired of all the traffic, but lately I've been dreaming about Country life. Getting away from all the noise and getting back to nature. I've been taking long drives through the country on Sunday afternoons and last week I decided to take my camerea along so you could dream along with me. 

This is my little country house that I'd live in with my little country kids and I'd have yummy Carmel apples for the trick or treaters that came at Halloween. Because in the country everybody is good and nobody would poison the kiddies.  




This is the window to my attic. Where there is a big trunk full of all my old prom and wedding dresses and there is a full length mirror that my daughter will admire herself in while playing dress up.
 Just like in the movies. 



Here is my cow Bessie that I milk at 4am so I can have fresh milk from the cow every morning. 



This is all my farming equipment that I must first learn the name of before I can learn how to use it. 



Here is the gate that leads back to my open pond, surrounded by trees. Where I'll sit in my little boat reading a good book. 
And at the end of the day I'll sit on my back porch in my rocker, watching the sun set and listening to the crickets chirp along with all the other natural sounds of the country. 

I've got my eyes on some cowboy boots and I just might give in and buy them. Next thing ya know I'll be listening to country music and demanding Josh learn swing dance with me. 
NAH.... I don't think I could handle all the hard work and the misquotes that would attack me every evening.
It's fun pretending like I could tho.

Welcome Spring!

She was a little shy at first, but I think Spring has FINALLY sprung!

This little guy was a wonderful model. He was lying in the grass relaxing, when I started taking pictures he stood up and posed for me. He was still a little wobbly so I was able to get this cute shot.
 I just wish I would have spotted him earlier in the morning instead of late afternoon. The sun was behind him, giving me bad lighting. :(
 Luckily I was able to lighten it in PS, but I'm still not very happy with it.
