Photographs.............

What is it about Pictures that can bring up such emotions whether its good or bad to your thoughts. There is something about them that capture the essences of life and something so beautiful about it too. Pictures are like time capsules and years from now people open them and in that special moment they come alive again. 


I just love Pictures and my love for them started when I was very small. I would look at albums and albums FULL of old pictures at my grandma's house and think about how life must have been all those years ago!


 Below are some of my most favorite moments in life......... Hope you enjoy them as much I do:) 






The Day my life changed into something so meaningful and wonderful.

This one is so special because it shows how much Stephen loves his babygirl

My Sweet Grandparents who are and always will be my Favorites!

This one brings tears because I was so nervous but SO ready to get married

The Start of our amazing Life

My Best Friend Michelle and the Hobo Hoedown we had a church one year

A Halloween Party at my parents house when we were all so little

The Day Stephen Dressed up as a lady and WON

My Best Friend

Swimming with Dolphins in Jamacia

The Day we brought home our Sweet Bella Marie





                                                             In Color

I said, Grandpa what’s this picture here 

It’s all black and white and ain’t real clear
Is that you there, he said, yeah I was eleven
Times were tough back in thirty-five
That’s me and Uncle Joe just tryin’ to survive
A cotton farm in the Great Depression

And if it looks like we were scared to death
Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
You should have seen it in color

This one here was taken overseas
In the middle of hell in nineteen forty-three
In the winter time you can almost see my breath
That was my tail gunner ole’ Johnny McGee
He was a high school teacher from New Orleans
And he had my back right through the day we left

And if it looks like we were scared to death
Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
You should have seen it in color

A picture’s worth a thousand words 
But you can’t see what those shades of gray keep covered
You should have seen it in color

This one is my favorite one
This is me and grandma in the summer sun
All dressed up the day we said our vows
You can’t tell it here but it was hot that June
That rose was red and her eyes were blue
And just look at that smile I was so proud

That’s the story of my life
Right there in black and white

And if it looks like we were scared to death
Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
You should have seen it in color

A picture’s worth a thousand words 
But you can’t see what those shades of gray keep covered
You should have seen it in color

You should have seen it in color
