If we live good lives, the times are also good. As we are, such are the times. ~ Saint Augustine of Hippo

It’s time for the Love Your Shot! | Link-Up over at Love that Shot! Come on over and share your favorite photo you took this week and tell us a little about how you took it or how you processed it.
Monday night, our little family went over to the park to play a fun game of Plants vs. Zombies! It’s quite a fun little game, especially for the little girls. It’s based off of a computer game that Aaron likes to play, and now Autumn likes to play it too. She came up with the idea of playing it out in real life over at the park! The object of the game is kill the zombies before they get you and eat your brains. Your weapons are vegetables and plants. My favorite is the pea shooters! We used balls and threw them at the “zombies.”
So on our way home, we spot this pretty little tree with these cute little seeds hanging from them. Autumn and Summer say they are their peas for their pea shooters! I had to take some pictures of them and was snapping away until Aaron told me to come over to where he was and look straight up. So I did and this is what I saw. Beautiful bokeh sparkles smiling at me! My tip is to look up. You might be surprised at what you find!

And here is a photo of the game in action! The girls LOVED it!

Nothing really interesting to say today… Just a pretty picture!

Every few weeks, The Pioneer Woman posts photography assignments with different themes. This past week her theme was “Bugs!” Bugs normally creep me out, but there are a few that are actually quite pretty! I remembered that I had “caught” a couple of ladybugs on the I Heart Faces Photo Walk I led a couple weeks ago, so I decided to add it to the photo assignment Flickr group. We went camping Friday and Saturday, and of course, one of the first things I do when we got home was to check my “computer stuff” and I saw that my ladybugs photo was in her fourth group! This is such a neat thing, Ree herself goes through all the entries and chooses her favorites!
And… here is the photo… cute huh?

Dandelions are so pretty. Aaron hates them, especially when they make their homes in our grass. But I have to say, they are beautiful. And to two little girls, they are full of magic.
