swing

My husband needed the computer this weekend to work on our backup computer that he is rebuilding.

I would probably not even have one backup if it was not for him.

As it is I think we have three? See I do not even know how many backups we have…

I totally lost my train of thought!

SO…that meant I did not get any of my daily pictures up!

HA!

I set this one up a little bit.

I will admit it, I am running out of ideas of ways to catch the boys and I together doing something we do everyday.

So I had them play on the swing and I sat and watched.

That is pretty typical really though.

It is near the road so I always have to be nearby when they play on it.

I did ask that they jump in a picture with me real quick.

This is right after I threw the ball for our dog Maddie.

They “had” to play in the water before they went inside for the night.

They are boys after all.

My sock choice made me smile.

I went out with the boys to take some pics of them swinging on their rope swing.

Since I had my wide angle lens, I needed to get close to get a cool shot.

Those feet are pretty close…

What do you think happened seconds after this shot was taken?

I was laying on the ground holding my head…

It can be difficult to tell how close you are to an object with the wide angle lens.

My youngest swung around and kicked the camera, therefore slamming it into my forehead.

My oldest, “YOU HURT MOM!!!”

My youngest, “Mom, you were too close. You should not have been that close.”

My youngest was right by the way. It was my fault.

I just thought his reaction was a true 4yr old thing to say.

After making sure I was in fact without a concussion, I started taking pictures again.

Although my oldest would not swing if I got too close.

He would even tell me to get back.

Apparently he is smarter then I am…
