Reflections in a Bubble

The kids were having a blast playing with Bekah's new bubble blower and I was able to focus on this bubble as it flew past. It turned out so well, you can see the trees in our yard in the reflections! Quinn's colourful shirt as the background really makes it pop.

Random Pictures from this week

My mums backyard is a wonderful place to be when there are no kids and dogs making noise.
Since her house backs onto a beautiful forest area there are tonnes of birds and insects to take pictures of. Today I was able to see capture a pair of yellow finches, gathering food and nesting material. The male is the bird with the black above his beak. The female is getting some nesting material from the caterpillar nest in one of the trees.

Mum has a quince tree that seems to have a new bush sharing its growing space. The white blooms are from something like a bridal wreath and the pink are the quince blossoms. The two look absolutely gorgeous together blooming. This is one of the shots I got of it today.

Liz's cat basil as he was wandering the yard and eating catnip.

The Bushes are great attractors of bumblee bees. This guy was so busy today going from flower to flower pollinating as he went. I really wanted him in the pink blossoms but he always went into those at the back of the bushes.
Little miss Bekah who I can't beliebe will be 4 in a weeks time (ahhhh where did the time go!!) Found some stickers on mothers day and decided to add them to her face. I snapped this shot as she was being silly with the camera. For once her eyes remained open :)

This is a glimpse into the world that I live it lately...kids and anything else I can take a picture of.

Hand in Hand

Together we can!

Bekah wanted desperately to ride bikes with her friend Molly. When we got home from groceries, Nana was over. Bekah visited patienly with Nana and then said okay Mummy time for bikes.

I walked her over to Molly's. The entire Allen famiy was outside enjoying the beautiful weather. Bekah took her "big bike" to ride like Molly's. She had a hard time getting going on it. (her first time on it) Molly was an excellent friend and took her by the hand or handlebar and helped her along. She gave Bekah a couple good shoves from behind as well :)

This is the end product of my learning to digitally scrapbook. I happened to log on to a word art blog and the saying was the one of the day. It went perfectly with what I was doing :)

Hand in Hand together we can!
