Easter Pictures Part 1

This is the first of THREE - yes, I said three - posts of Easter pictures so bear with me.

We have a setting on our camera called "vivid color".  I love it for scenery but not so much for people.  I included a bunch of the ones using that setting though because it made our setting look so much prettier though we all look like we are badly sunburned.  As you can see by looking at the first two pictures, the regular setting doesn't do justice to the scenery like the vivid color does.

Kevin's favorite feature of the camera (that he uses ALL THE TIME now)  :-)  It worked great for our Easter pictures since we all had some of the same color.

Friends - Betty, Larissa, and myself.

Kevin and I; Rod and Betty Brown.

Okay so I was going to delete this picture when I first loaded the pictures to my computer but it just made me giggle.  Then I certainly WASN'T going to show it but I thought maybe someone else would get as much amusement out of it as me.  What's so amusing and puzzling to me is what in the world I was looking at.  It just looks so... out of place and odd - and funny.  :-)

 

Strangely enough, the pictures of us all just talking all turned out better than the ones where we were all supposed to be looking at the camera.  (See the picture above for one example)  In almost every one we tried to get of the four of us, someone had their eyes closed or a strange expression - or their head tipped up looking at the heavens.  The original idea was to have pictures if we needed them for business related things (the HSBR website, etc.)

She was ALL DONE with being in her "scratchy dress" and we actually had to chase her down because she was walking back down the street to our house to get different clothes.  She was a good sport about putting the dress on in the morning for church though.  We had a much easier time than we normally do when she's wearing something "scratchy" or different.

The little thing in her lap is her stuffed puppy with bunny ears that she got in her Easter basket.

She was so agitated by the time we got around to getting picture of just her.  The breeze was blowing her pony tails and driving her crazy.  She stood there so frantically flipping her pony tails back over and over that we all were getting amused with her.  We didn't realize that she was getting sick besides.  By yesterday evening, she had a fever and was not feeling well at all.

Trying to tolerate a few more pictures - and the dress.

Part 2 maybe tonight.
