Tulip Fields

May Day I went to the Tulip Fields in Woodburn, OR for the first time for a little photoshoot. UNBELIEVABLE! Pictures really don't do it justice. Y'just gotta see with your own eyes what a bazillion tulips in as many shapes, colors and sizes as you can imagine look like in on place. WOW!

Beachy Wonder

Went to the beach a couple weekends ago with a couple special people. It was supposed to snow with INCHES accummulation here in the Portland area. But if we waited to do anything fun for the weather to get better around here, we'd never do anything! So we headed to the beach. Right before we got there, the sky came down in all kinds of sleet and hail and snow and rain...And I forgot my umbrella. However, when we came around the last bend that introduced us to the ocean, the sky totally opened up! It was amazing!

5 Rock Ranch

I went to 5 Rock Ranch yesterday with Charis. BEAUTIFUL place! I have a few other pics on my other blog. If you ever have a chance to go visit, I would highly encourage you to do so. It's a beautiful drive out there and breathtaking upon arrival. I'll be making regular visits going forward. Great place just to BREATHE! :O)









This barn is not on the ranch, but it is on the way. :O)

Laurel & Scott, Take 1

We went to this beach (Nehalem State Park, Oregon Coast) to do some dress trashing...



It was a BEAUTIFUL day! There was this cloud hovering right off the coast, but you will see how blue the sky was inland. Oh...and it was just a teensie bit windy... We had some fun frolicking in the waves and playing on the beach before we commenced to dirtifying the sacred gown. The anticipation was killing me! :O)~ But it was good. Kinda like Christmas. :O)



Oh...I should probably mention that these love birds got married in January.




LOVE LOVE LOVE this one!


This is it for this group...Stay tuned! More on their way!

Crater Lake

Pictures really don't do it any justice. One must EXPERIENCE Crater Lake by going and breathing in the air. Incredible.





For some reason, I love stairs... taking pictures of them, that is. 'Course walking up and down them on a regular basis does wonderful things for thy hiney, as well. :O)~

Fisher of Men

"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men." Matthew 4:19

SunRiver

My friend Deb and I went to Sunriver for the weekend. It was C.O.L.D.! It snowed...in April. I think it got down to about 20 degrees. Aren't April showers supposed to bring May flowers? What do April...snowflurries.?. bring? The shivers. The snow didn't stick, but this is the view from the cabin we stayed in.

SunRiver, Oregon

My first week in Bend, I stayed at the Sunriver Resort. It is very beautiful there. Lots of little critters to take pictures of. :)





Yes...I was this close to these guys...and No, they are not caged. Friendly fellas 'round these parts!





I just love this little pine cone! :)

Drake Park

Drake Park is located in downtown Bend and is a GREAT place to take pictures. It has been so beautiful the last couple of days, I had to get out and get me some of it! There were photographers all over the park taking advantage of the day.









And of course, I had to take some pics of my little punkin'... :) She'll be 9 months old tomorrow.
