A Photographer In The Making . . .

 
visited my daughter the other day
and while i was there
grandson jordon snapped a few pictures
with my iphone
 
here are some of his momma's flowers
 
 
clematis
 
 
jordon created this piece
a few years ago
 
 
i forgot the photos were on my phone
what do you think
a budding photographer in the midst
i wonder


tuesday i was treated to a birthday outing
my friend babs took me off
in her brand new equinox
to grand rapids
 
the first stop
the apple store
to pick up my new ipad
garden house hubby treated me for my birthday
 
 
it was on my wish list
and hubby checked it off
i have loved my original ipad
it was one of the early pads
from a few years ago
 
i use it for almost all my
photographs, emails, posting, recipes
and more
now i feel i have literally been left in
the cloud
as i try to sort out all the changes
i am finding in my new ipad
please be patient with me as
i sort it all out
 
 
we stopped at a few shops along the way
 
art of the table
a specialty retail shop full of gourmet foods

 
 
and enjoyed a fabulous lunch
at the electric cheetah

Photo

the cheetah was recommended
i was delightfully surprised
for me, the logo doesn't do justice to the
delicious food
i had the yahtzee
amazing
 

 
and before lunch
i made it an even happier day for me
when i found a coach handbag
 
it just had to come home with me
 
i have been looking for a new handbag
for many months
and this fits me perfectly
 

i have heard it been said
we can never, ever do enough for ourselves
 
and that my friends was
precisely what i did
enjoyed this happy day
 for myself

ta ta for now
with love
lynne

A budding photographer AND a daughter who has her mother's knack for floral combinations!
{I am still having SO much trouble with the smart phone...a tablet scares the dickens out of me. I stand in awe of your talents!}
