Spring has arrived here in NE... and while it may seem early, it is very welcome. We set up the trampoline for the kids yesterday, cleaned up the yard, and grilled out for the first time this season.
Today we stopped at the park. I was hoping to get a few photos for a special birthday card. My hubby's Grandma turns 90 tomorrow. Taking photos of the kids with dad can be a bit of a chore... he is not a willing subject. Anyways, I was able to snap a few more pics of the kids out playing.
In an attempt to actually use items found on pinterest, I looked up a few tutorials on photography and photoshop. I tried out a few of the "tricks" to enhance photos, and I played around with creating my own hand drawn frames. I only have a mouse to work with, but I think with LOTS more practice, I could achieve smoother lines and details. Or I could just splurge on a pen/brush for my computer...
Here's a peek at our weekend! and my experiments on the computer...

That was fun. I hope to play around with this some more, and some more of the tips and tricks found on my boards.

Great weekend! and there is still one more day for the kids... no school tomorrow!
