Sneak Peak - stream of consciousness
Jay'me invited Kate and I to go with to play with her 2 year old gelding Nefarious. Such a beautiful baby boy. Many more photos tomorrow.
Jay'me then went home and posted Wordless Wednesday on the other blog. My feet play a staring role. Go over there and make a guess so you can play guest photographer.
A long night spent celebrating my brother Matt's birthday. Mom and Dad returned from Tennessee in time for dinner, peach pie and a few presents. Miss Kate wrote Matt's name on the card as well as signing her own name inside. This is a first for her. The letters were even kind of recognizable. So proud of her.
Happy 34th birthday Matt.
You all know me too well. Scott12 was the first correct guess in the giveaway . S12 you are now the proud winner of a $20 gift card to Starbucks*. I can think of no better gift, well except a fisheye lens or a super telephoto lens or... well... $20 at Starbucks and maybe you can use their free wifi to find a new lens to lust after.
I highly recommend enjoying a pumpkin spice latte while they are still here for the season or if you're a real rebel the toffee mocha is out of this world.
I loved playing with a slow shutter speed and the zoom to take that photo. Here is my favorite of the group of photos I took that night.
Time to say goodnight. Kate is up crying again with leg cramps. Poor kid is growing like a weed and her little legs just can't take it.

I'm back. Had to give Kate more Advil. Junior miss has been up 5 of the last 6 nights multiple times with leg cramps and sore knees. Fellow parents, reassure me that this is typical. I keep waiting for her to wake up and be 6' tall.
*This giveaway is sponsored by me and only me. Starbucks corporate doesn't know me, they would however miss me. I'm ashamed to admit that my local Starbucks does indeed know me but they did not sponsor this contest. The prize and on-going Starbucks raves are my way of making other people addicted so that I feel better about myself. Thank you, 10-4, over and out*
Try a tepid bath for her leg cramps,it always helped my kids.Thats a big horse.I am going on vacation Friday with my daughter Dana,back on the 10th.Love and prayers Nancy
Poor Kate (and you!). That sounds uncomfortable. I don't have any suggestions unfortunately but do know my friend's daughter experienced the same thing around her age.
