Saturday morning I got to do little Ezra's newborn photos…Check out Little Earthling Photography to see more of his newborn shoot.

Yesterday was one of those perfect days…the sun was out. It was the weekend. I encouraged my older children to invite friends over after church for volleyball. Our yard was filled with laughter and fun as a group of teens hung out for some volleyball, cake, cookies, and vitamin D.

Adalia leaves for her trip to Honduras in 16 days…and Keziah leaves for Job Corps in 8 days! She got "the call" Friday afternoon that they have an opening for her. She is equally nervous and excited. My parents are taking her and Boaz for a tour of the facility on Wednesday…I am so excited for this opportunity for her!

Now to answer a few questions that have come up recently:

The photowall…I order my prints mounted on styrene from my photo lab…I think if you google you might be able to find tutorials on how to do it yourself, but I never have…

To the reader who asked about Apollo being dressed so warmly in his Gertie Ball photo…we have had one of the coolest, wetest springs on record here. Yes, it was cool outside and those photos were taken at about 9 am…

And for the reader who requested a tie dye tutorial… I am tie dying with friends tomorrow and plan to document it in photos so I can post a tutorial…
