Gab's Portraits in yard

We were out in the backyard the other day taking pictures for our friend, Sarah, that she may need to use in an ad for an upcoming pageant. While we were out there, I decided to click a few photos of my baby girl. Ellie, of course, went inside with the pageant girl to get a new scarf. You know if it involves a wardrobe change, Ellie feels the need to be there! ha. But not my Gabbi Girl. She is gonna hang with her mama!! Period!Oh. This may be my favorite!This is a new dress from Target. I even got Ellie Sue one. She MUST wear it for me at the beach. It MUST happen. I love, love, love me some Target! And have I mentioned how much I totally love the scenery where we live?! It is a slice of heaven!And this weekend, I spent every waking moment adding a flower garden. Alllll around my cottage. I so love what is becoming of our house and new yard. Todd and I love that we now have an actual vegetable garden. Would you believe he is even considering chickens?! I would LOVE it!! I am the country girl from Green Acres. Todd is definitely the city boy! But back to Gabs for now. I'll be posting all about the garden soon. This little girl is so special. And I think I may need to print a whole bunch of that photo above for grands, aunts, mom and dad's wallets. Now if only I knew how to photoshop! Any takers? I'll send you my faves ! What a fun day. Thank you for letting me share!I suppose it's almost time for spring pics of both of the girls together. Maybe even in their matching dresses! ha.

Precious pictures of a sweet girl in a slice of heaven! You are a great photographer. I am coming to see the new flowers and garden one day. So do not be surprised if you see an old lady smelling your flowers!

Love your posts... I just don't get out of reader enough to comment. Love the pics of Gabby! She is beautiful and seems to have such a sweet spirit! I really love the scenery of your home. I look forward to seeing how your garden does!

You are going to have vegetables and flowers blooming everywhere when you have your summer and fall art retreat. I can't wait to see them! I am not photoshop proficient, but I do edit my pictures using Picasa. If you want me to touch up a few of your's, I would be happy to. You can download Picasa for free from Google.

Absolutely beautiful pictures. Such a amazing background for pictures of your little angel.
I would be happy to help edit some pictures for you. Do you still have my email? I see several that I think would be so nice color-enhanced. Get a hold of me.

Hi Mo ~ What beautiful pictures of a beautiful little doll!!! She is so darn cute and sweet. You and Todd are truly blessed - it just does not get any cuter.
Have a wonderful day,

Yes, Mo - this is Crystal A. Yes, his mom was really excited. I wish that I was there to see what he did. Thank so much to MMPT! (esp. you mo.) It was 1 year ago that I called you in a panic!

Mo, I can do a very little in Phtoshop Elements. Let me know if you can not find an expert.

Cute pics of Gabs!!! Love the sunsetting in the backdrop!!

Becky said...

love the photos. Had to laugh when I saw about the chickens - although they are fun and easy you gotta have someone to cover for when you guys are gone - cause they like to eat every day. Are you thinking to use them for the eggs or meals... Becky

Julie said...

Love days like that! What a beautiful girl!

I know this might be weird, Mo, but I was reading this other blog and the Mom seems kind of at her wit's end. I thought maybe you could shoot her a quick comment with some insight. It is so up your alley. :)

Too cute. I hope you manage to get E in her dress and get them together. My boys are 1 year apart and I use to dress them alike for pics til they were about 5. Then I just started coordinating them.
