So this week's theme was "Spring Fever" which is somewhat funny to me since I feel like our Spring ended about a month ago, although we did return to March-like temperatures this past week. I took a few photos Sunday morning of my blue hydrangea, Dillon and Murphy and then took my camera inside. We spent the day washing the camper and working outside. As I was heading in for the evening, I happened to look over and notice a ladybug on my hydrangea. It was amazing how that little pop of color changed the whole scene. I ran in and grabbed my camera, afraid the ladybug would fly off before I could get the picture. Fortunately, it was content to hang out and I got the shot!

Week 20 - MCP 52 Week Project Theme: Spring Fever
Processed using various actions from the Florabella Luxe II set.
For Mother's Day, we visited a local "paint your own pottery" place so that Dillon could make me a plate. We all had fun and the plate turned out really nice! The store had great windows along the front, so it was a perfect location for this week's photo!
"In the Paint"
Week 19 - MCP 52 Week Project Theme: Window Light
For my week 18 photo I used one of the pictures that I took during my workshop with Amanda from Everyday Elements. Although this week's theme was "first thing in the morning" and I didn't technically take it in the morning, the workshop started in the morning - so I'm going to say that it works! ;-)
"Sunlight"
Week 18 - MCP 52 Week Project Theme: First Thing in the Morning
First thing on Saturday morning, I got to attend a workshop with Amanda from Everyday Elements and had the privilege of photographing a beautiful family.

Guess what? My weekly photo was featured featured on the MCP blog! That's the 3rd time so far and it makes me feel so good!
Normally, I get up and check the blog first thing on Saturday morning, but this week, I forgot all about it until Sunday night. Why did I forget? Because I was at a totally awesome, in-person photography and editing workshop with Amanda from Everyday Elements and some other wonderful, photographically-minded women from VA, NC, and SC. Amanda has a great personality and is unbelievably filled with knowledge that she is willing to share. I can't say enough good things about the workshop or Amanda or the delicious camera-shaped cookies that were in our goodie bags!

Now, onto the photo...
