Day 83...Fly Baby, Fly

April 11, 2012  •  Leave a Comment
Day 83

A day trip to Sedalia, MO and Warsaw, MO brought some rewarding moments!
Other than seeing the Snowy Owls this past Winter at Smithville Lake,
seeing these Eagles today tops any moment I've ever experienced in Nature.
It brings a whole new meaning to "bird watching!"
When I arrived home late this evening and uploaded my photos,
I'd taken 480 shots today!
It was really hard to quickly choose which ones to use in my blog.
I just "grabbed" the first few that caught my eye and these are what I chose!
I hope to have a FB album put together by the first of next week.

I'm in love...Eagle love.
Coming in for a nest landing!

Baby gazing out of the nest while Mom and Dad are away...
"Hey, where are you guys? I'm hungry!"

Back home with the baby!


Day 82...A Little Pink "Witch"

Day 82

As happy as I am to have my camera back,
 I was too tired this evening to leave the house and go out on the hunt for a subject.
Sooo, we (my camera and I) headed out the front door and took a few test shots
right in my own front yard!
It appears to be functioning/focusing properly! 
I've got some serious test shooting to do in the next few days before I can be sure.
The repair detail form said it was the same problem as before! Just as I suspected.
I sure hope they got it right this time!!

Day 81
 My brother-in-law and his family came into town for Easter
and the big 80th birthday surprise!!! 
We decided to take them to one of our favorite places!!!
What's for dinner?
CINZETTI'S

on the way home, since for once I wasn't the one driving across the bridge, I tried my hand at catching a shot of the Kit Bond Bridge...
(my friend Norine took one recently and gave me the idea)
Thanks for helping me out with this one, Norine!
As soon as I realized Mark was taking this route back home,
I knew what I was going to do!!!
Another "drive by!"

Day 80
A good time was had by all...:)
A great day to be with family and friends!

They're ready for the Easter egg hunt!!

 My Easter Iris...:)

Two of GiGi's Munchkin's ...
partaking in some Easter egg contents!

Granny blowing out her "80" candles...
(I was kind and went the easy route for her)

Hmmm, where's all the grass I put in there?

The day is done, house cleaned up and all is quiet.
The surprise, laughter, conversation, kids playing and all that food I worried over
 are all just a memory now.




Day 79...Whoopie Pie Time

Day 79
After a very busy morning and a disappointing pick up at a local Liberty bakery, I decided I'd better do some baking so there would be plenty of desserts
for Easter dinner and the surprise party...
this is the only photo I took the entire day, although I made Snickerdoodles too...:)

Chocolate Chip Whoopie Pies
Yummy!
