The challenge for this week was to capture a contemplative photo. I couldn't get a good shot from the kids, so I used this one of me. I took this by using the timer & doing an auto-shot. This little darling is our new kitten, Lion.

The photo I'm using this week takes me back to my days as a little girl when my dad was able to fix any problem I had. My father bought me these two Cabbage Patch Dolls when I was 3 years old. I had lost my first & only Cabbage Patch at the park one day. I cried for days, because she was my favorite doll. Not long after this happened, I received a package in the mail from Germany. It was from dad & he had mailed me these twin Cabbage Patch Dolls to make me feel better. Every time I pull out these dolls, I reminisce. It takes me back to when there was no problem too big or too small for my daddy to fix. There’s nothing like being a little girl and having a wonderful father there to fix your problems and stop your tears. Even when he was in another country, he was still right there when I needed him.

This week for I Heart Faces we are to tell about one thing our family loves to do in the summer. We love to spend time with our family. We have a different event almost every weekend & we just have a blast! Our events usually include the whole family. The first photo is my little cousin sitting on the step at one of our block parties.

I ♥ Independence Day Celebrating! We had a blast this past Saturday as we showed our Patriotic side for July 4th Celebrating :) After we picked our red , white and blue outfits, we headed to my mother's house. We had fun in the sun I did Patriotic face paintings We ate good food Drank some drinks Headed to the Benjamin Franklin Parkway And enjoyed the Fireworks!
