Oh, I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Wiener!

My husband noticed the Wiener Mobile at the grocery store down the street from us a few weeks ago. So he headed back home and "borrowed" my camera without my knowledge while I was a work to get a photo! I had no idea until a few days later when I was using my camera for something else.

He is soooo lucky he didn't bring any harm to my "baby"! He knows I'd freak out. I don't let just anyone touch my camera :)

My little Vampire

Here's my 10 year right before trick or treating last night. Daddy did her make up-with just a little touch up from me:)

Faces Week 38 {Blue}

Botanical Gardens

Yesterday hubby and I went to some nearby Botanical Gardens. It probably is not the best time of year to go. Many of the plants were dying and turning brown but I still got some good shots.

This last one is probably my favorite of the day.

Faces: Week 35 {Back to School}

It's been a few weeks since I entered.

This year my oldest started High School. I was so not ready for this! While taking a few pics on the front porch before school, dad had to get in on the action. She was trying to pose for me and had no idea he was making bunny ears behind her head.

Tennis

This is a photoblog.......maybe I should start posting some photos!

My daughter joined the High School tennis team this year. She really likes it and is doing well. After trying a few different sports and activities over the years, I think she has found her "thing".

Yesterday at the school she played the bleachers to watch tennis were on the outside of the fence which doesn't make for easy photography. So on her first match she played on the court that was back to back with the bleachers for the football field. We were able to get around there and climb to the top to take some shots from above.

Milwaukee Lighthouses

I had another chance last week to photograph a few lighthouses. This time on Milwaukee's lakefront. This is the Milwaukee Pierhead Lighthouse with the Milwaukee Breakwater Lighthouse in the background.

Camera Critters #69

Since our family visits the zoo quite a bit and I have tons of pictures of all types of critters, I thought I'd start joining in on the Camera Critters meme.

My daughter used my old digital camera yesterday. She had fun and was going a really good job so I'm posting a little comparison of the shots we took of the same animal.

Mine:

Hers:

Again I'm not really sure what this is, some type of ground hog or gopher maybe? He wasn't actually in an exhibit. There are quite a few wooded areas around the zoo and there are wildlife living through there. These came out of a hole that was next to the giraffe exhibit in a little flowered area.

They turned out pretty similiar because he didn't really move much. He just came out and stared at people like we were the ones on exhibit. And even though we each took a few shots the best of each of ours was almost the same!
