Peach Blossom Photography

A few days ago, our peach tree (finally) blossomed, and I was super excited to photograph them. I’ve been waiting for the tree to blossom so I could take pictures!!! Here are some of my favorites from the shoot. 🙂

I love this one!

I love this bee!! ❤ 

And that’s it! I love how this photoshoot turned out!! 😀 ❤

Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from it,
Who gives breath to the people on it,
And spirit to those who walk on it:” Isaiah 42:5

In wisdom You have made them all.
The earth is full of Your possessions” Psalm 104:24

Fall Photoshoot!

Hiya, people! 😉

For the last while I have been trying to find a good day for a Fall photoshoot, but each day has been too cloudy and rainy… Yesterday afternoon it was finally clear enough to get some good pictures!

I started out with a few pictures taken at our house.

And, I just got some cool new shoes, which I love, so…. Consequently, there are now quite a few pictures taken of them. But, I won’t bore you with all of them. Just three of them. XD

After that, I wanted to drive to an apple orchard nearby to take some pictures there. So I went and took my sister, Gracie, with me! 🙂

---

After that, Grace and I took mini photoshoots of each other, which was a lot of fun!

My pictures of Grace…

Grace’s pictures of me… (She did a good job!)

Ok, well that’s about it! Wow, that was a LONG post, with a LOT of pictures… XD I had a lot of fun with that photoshoot! 😀

Here’s a chocolate chip cookie for anyone who stayed until the end…! 😉

Ok, I just succeeded in making this post even longer… XD I’ll go now. ;P

~Rosy

Which picture was your favorite? Did you stay till the end? ;P Are you excited for Fall? 😀  

Little Brother Photoshoot

Hey guys! So, I know I haven’t done very many photography posts lately, but that’s because I honestly haven’t been taking very many pictures for a while. It’s because I’ve had… well, what you might call the photographers’ version of Writer’s Block. So Photographer’s Block I guess. XD um, is that a real thing? xD It should be.

Anyway, thankfully I’m getting over that now. So a few days ago I did a photoshoot of my adorable little brother James, and I love how it turned out! He is THE cutest, bestest, sweetest little bro anyone could ask for. ❤ ❤

Those eyes! ❤

Aww!

I love his face in this one!

He was laughing at his brother Philip, who was in the tree. 😉

❤ LOVE THIS ONE ❤

He looks like he’s thinking really hard about something.

 

This smile is sooo great!

Aw!

Love this kid so much! ❤ 

Aaaaah, his blue eyes!!!!

Bonus picture:

So, during the photoshoot, I asked James to reach up into the apple tree, and pretend he was picking an apple. I did that, and Philip said, “Take a picture of me doing that!” So he reached up into the tree to pretend to pick an apple, but the apple accidentally came down in his hand. We weren’t technically supposed to pick any apple yet since they weren’t ripe, and this was his face. XD XD

HAHA, isn’t that epic? XD

James and I had such fun with this photoshoot. He’s the best. ❤ So are all my siblings. 😉 ❤

Also, Gracie and I finally took the video for our Q&A. Sorry we took so long. More on that in the video. 😉 I can’t wait to get that finished and edited so I can post it soon! 🙂

Hope you all are having a wonderful day!

Do you have an adorable little brother? ;P 

We’re Back!!!

Hey everyone! We’re finally back from our trip!! 😀 (In case you don’t know, our family went on a two week trip to Alabama for a family reunion. We also went to Georgia to visit several friends. We had a great time!!) 😀

Here are some pictures from our trip. 🙂 (Btw, I vlogged (video blogged) about the trip too, so ya’ll will get to see that video soon! 😀 )

We got the see the ocean for the first time on our way home! It was so beautiful! 😀 ❤

James is so cute! ❤ 

Beach photography! 

Our Uncle and Aunt took us to the zoo. Sadly, I forgot my camera, but here are some pictures off my uncle’s phone. 😉

Some of my siblings and I (Lacking two), and my cousin. (The boy in the green shirt.)

Cousins!

Philip and Susy make great lions!

OH! And I finally got to meet my good friend Amie!!!! 😀 We had such a fun time together! Her whole family is awesome. 😉 ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

We had a BLAST! 😀 We also made a video together, which you will get to see… later. 😉

Andy and Cousin Eddie invented a new way to have water balloon fights… Just smash the baboons on each other’s heads! LOL! XD I guess they weren’t getting wet enough the real way… ;P

Mom and her new-found cousin and Uncle. Probably more on that in a later post. No promises, but… probably! 😉

Lizzie and a friend’s dog.

We spent a looong time in the car… Like, 6 days worth of driving… Ugh! To pass the time, we listened to a lot of Jonathan Park, Brinkman Adventures, and sermons by Israel Wayne. 🙂 So it wasn’t so bad. 😉 We did have a few really carsick kids though… XD

Y’all. I LOVED the South. It was sooo pretty, and I loved the people, the accent (lol!), the trees… And guys, the GREENNESS!!! 🌳🌲🍃 It was so beautiful! I loved it all! Except for the ticks. Death to all ticks. Seriously, if it hadn’t been for the ticks, I probably would have moved there. Ok, maybe not quite… ;P XD

Well, I hope you enjoyed these pictures! Keep on the look out for a video about the trip, where you can see all you just saw, and lot’s more! 🙂 And also the video about our visit with Amie. (Amie’s making that one.) I can’t wait to see it!! :D😁

See you soon! (Figuratively speaking.) 😉

Rosy

Have you ever seen the ocean?

Are you looking forward to seeing the video about our trip?  

 

March is Over… It’s April

What? How is this even possible? I mean, it was just Christmas… And New Years…. And now we’re 1/3 of the way through the yer! 😮 Well, I’m not complaining. YAY FOR SPRING!!!! 😀

Here is an overview of the month of March at the Marr house. 🙂

Ummm….

*Mind goes blank*

Uhh… I know something must have happened last month.

Just give me… a second…

Ok! 😉

Mom, Susy and Ruthie each had a birthday this month. 🙂 Susy turned 4 on the 3rd, and Ruthie turned 7.

 

Ruthie is the one no the left. This was taken on her birthday. 🙂

The Bible. I read in Leviticus, Job, Acts and Romans. (No, I didn’t read all of each of those books… 😉 )

I learned…

When I take pictures of dogs, I just might get my lens licked… XD

~Rosy

Do any of you have birthdays in March? Have you read or listened to any lamplighter books? If so, which is your favorite? 

Lizzie and Queen Photoshoot

Yesterday my sister Lizzie (11) wanted me to do a photoshoot of her and her dog, Queen, to which I quite happily obliged!

Here are the pictures. And, btw, I took waaay more than this, but obviously they weren’t all good, sooo… lol! 😉 😛 XD

I really like this one!

This one is Lizzie’s favorite. 🙂

I think this one is cute!

I’m not sure whether she looks happy, or grossed out that she’s getting kissed… XD

Well, those are all the best ones I made. 🙂 I really love how this photoshoot turned out! Both of us really enjoyed it the time we spent together. ❤

And before I leave… Here’s a…

RPOR!

(Random Piece of Randomness)

Here’s a video I made of myself playing Fur Elise on the piano. (Complete with several mess-ups!)

Well, it’s the first part of the song anyway. I’m trying to learn the second part, but it’s harder than the first! XD 😀

Recent Photography

I realized that I haven’t posted much photography lately, sooo… I’ve decided to fix that! 😛 😀

So, for starters, my uncle gave my a camera that’s so much better than my old one! (Thanks sooo much Timothy! 😀 ) And he taught me how to use it, and I’ve been totally loving it! 😀 😉

 “Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.”  John 1:3

I love this one!

“Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come, the cooing of doves is heard in our land.”  Song of Solomon 2:12

I think this one is my favorite…! 😀 

 

“For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.”  Romans 1:20
