Saturday {SOOC} Straight Out of the Camera Linky

I decided to play outside with Monster today, and took a break and took pics.  Monster had a great time outside.  And there was the usual swinging, sliding down the slide and also riding his 4-wheeler. 

 

Here is Monster climbing on his swingset.

 

Monster on his 4-wheeler.  It's sunfaded, but works great for us.

 I decided to walk around the house and let him play for a little while by himself and got this GREAT pic.  He didn't know I was watching him!

And last but not least...again playing around with the camera to see how I can get action shots:

 Monster was jumping off the end of the slide and got this FANTASTIC mid air shot!!! 

This was my day, and I hope everyone else had a great day also!!

Saturday {SOOC} Straight Out of the Camera Linky

Well, I figure since I LOVE photography, I might as well start this also.  Soo...without further adieu here is my Saturday Straight Out of the Camera

As you can see...I've been playing with my new Canon Rebel Ti3 and enjoying it!!! Since I have a 35mm Canon Rebel, I already know a little about it, but a film camera just DOES. NOT. COMPARE. to a DSLR.  So, it's still taking some getting used to.

I hope you guys enjoy this picture of Monster Boy.  Can you tell he's a little country boy, wearing shoes without socks...yes it drives me crazy, but he and Daddy like it for some insane reason!

Blog Hop iPad Giveaway

 And the Big News Is......

I am going to be hosting an iPad giveaway to coincide with the launching of my new blog:

I'm Raising a Monster

Here's how it's going to work:

1. There will be a total of 25 blogs participating.

2. The first 5 blogs are the ones that got in free...the other 20 pay $20 to help cover the cost of the iPad and shipping.  And if you do the math, it really doesn't cover all of it, so this is a GREAT bargain!!!

3. We will be using a rafflecopter form that I will provide by   Friday Jan 20.  

4. If, by some slim chance there is not a total of 25 blogs, we will extend the sign up for 3 days.  If after that, there still is not 25 blogs, then you will have your money refunded and we will try again in a month or so.

5.  I'm working on a button for you to put on your site, so please bear with me while I get this done.

You can go sign up for the blog hop, and you must have a blog, please fill out the form HERE
