Project 365 - Week of May 15th - May 21st

It is that time of week again and believe me it was my salvation all week.  I don't know how I would have made it through this week if it had not been for picture taking.  Want to see some more?  Go visit Sara at ....make music from your heart to the Lord and you will be so impressed with all the other photographers out there participating in her Project 365.

I stopped for a coke on my way home from school Monday afternoon and when I got out of the car I noticed these petunias growing out of the concrete.  Are they not gorgeous?

We went to Amanda's Tuesday night to wait for the family to arrive from Atlanta.  Frank and I ran to town to get some breakfast food so they would have something to eat on Wednesday morning.  This moon picture was made near her house in a pasture that is across the street.  The moon was so beautiful.  I wish I could say my mood was as bright and shiny.

This shot was made from my backyard through some trees on Wednesday night after the cookout with the youth from Rock Mills.

Frank's finished with my beautiful flower beds and this plant is the hydrangea that Jeni, Sam, and Austen gave me for Mother's Day.  He has worked so hard on this project and it looks fabulous.

In the field next to Wal-mart I got this Queen Anne's Lace.

Friday, May 20th 

A firefighters funeral is passing under the hanging flag.  My cousin's husband, Randy died on Tuesday night and if you have never experience a firefighter/military/police ceremony you have missed something very powerful.

Randy was buried in the Lanett cemetary.  This is a shot of Little Nadine's doll house.  It is actually a grave for a little girl and her parents.  It is in the book "Alabama Curiosities."  After the little girls parents died the City of Lanett took over the upkeep on the little doll house.

Just when you think the world is crashing in on you.....there is a baby shower.  Shelby Spivey's baby shower was today in the Fellowship Hall at the church.  Shelby is one of the cutest little mama's I have ever seen.  Her smile is so infectious that it was hard to be there....and be sad.  She got some really cool stuff....things they did not have when I had babies.   Did you know that there is something called a peepee teepee?  It is for...little boys.  I have never heard of such.  One more week of school and then I am out for the summer.  Believe me I can hardly wait.  I think I will hole up in my house the first week and just read and be lazy.  Have a great week!
