Monday Mugs - Umbrella
If you've followed my blog for a while, you know who this is...my favorite sidekick and partner in crime, lil' J. She was 3 in the first picture. Second picture, 2 years later, same raincoat and umbrella! I love to look at those pics and see how much she's grown! Now she's 6 1/2, the raincoat is long outgrown and the umbrella broken.
Just a few more cute "umbrella" pics of my little buddy. We used to love going for walks in the rain!

i heart faces week 8
It's time for some "hands-on" fun at i ♥ faces this week...no faces required! I love this theme and have been wishing for it for many months now...I love hand photos and what they tell about a person.
This is a photo I took of Lil' J last summer. She was helping my mom plant flowers in the garden, something she's loved to do since she was 2 years old. She was so excited when I gave her her very own pair of child-sized Dora the Explorer gardening gloves and could not wait to put them on and dig in! In years past she hated getting her gloves dirty...clearly she has now gotten over that!

Happy Birthday I Heart Faces!
This is my little cousin Cobi. I took this photo on Christmas Day. My dad has this organ in the hall and despite all the presents and decorations filling the house at the holidays, my little cousins are always drawn to the organ. On this particular day, little Cobi was pounding on the keys a bit too hard and had been told by his mother not to touch it again...but what 3-year-old can resist? I love his big, dark eyes and the deer-in-the-headlights look that spread across his face when he realized he'd been caught in the act!
Check out the i ♥ faces blog for many more "best faces."

I Heart Faces week 51
Have you ever gone through your photos and found some that were just too funny for words?

You need to put the I ♥ Faces button in your post.Pick the photos that make you laugh out loud when you see them. Tickle the judge's funny bone and you might see your photo featured on our site!
Anyone who regularly checks out my photo challenge entries knows who this is...Lil' J. I got some really great photos on this unseasonably warm May afternoon while we were at The Knight Spot for our first ice cream cone of the season. At first she sat by patiently while I flashed the camera in her face, but eventually, I got this. I almost deleted it, but it cracked me up so I didn't...and I'm glad!
This is my cousin Emily. It was Cookie Day 2008. We were in the midst of frosting dozens upon dozens of cookies when Emily dropped one of the freshly-frosted treats face-down. We laughed til we cried when we saw the elf-shaped imprint on her shirt. What can I say...after a loooong day of baking (and much caffeine...), just about anything is funny.
Another one from Christmas 2008. This is my cousin Cobi. I only get to see him once a year, so I was trying to get some cute pics while I could. I managed to get a few good ones, including one of him in a Santa Hat, but of course, being 2 years old he did what 2-year-olds do best when the cameras come out...turn into a big ol' goofball. *sigh*
This is my wonderful friend Pam. Back in September I was on my very first trip to NYC and she, now a resident of the city, was acting as my tourguide. Being the mature 20-somethings we are, we had to make a stop at Toys 'R Us. We walked past a display of these odd looking dolls, called Therapy Buddies or something like that, and of course had to play with them. You know how the saying goes...Growing older is mandatory. Growing up is optional. :)
Last but not least is this little gem. My great aunt passed away in early September, and after the funeral my family gathered at a local restaraunt for lunch. Being a rather solemn occasion, with everyone nicely dressed, I thought I could get a nice pic of my mom (on the left) and her sisters. No such luck. She and my Aunt Donna immediately went into crazy mode as my Aunt Linda stood obliviously by and my sister Karla somehow slipped into the shot in back. Should have known...I have a nearly identical photo from my great uncle's wedding a few years back. Ditto what I said above about growing up... ;)
Think those are funny? Well then, hop on over to the i ♥ faces blog for more side-splitting, gut-busting, gasping for breath, tears rolling down your face, almost peeing your pants good times!!!
