Hello my Friends

As you can see I have a new look here on my blog.
I thought is was time for a change.  I have been wanting to make a change
here for a while.  Finally got off my rump and got-r-done.

I'm not sure I am totally in LOVE with this new look
so you might see it change once again.



Speaking about Love.. 

I was invited to be a guest over at
Our Beautiful World
As a guest I was asked to choose the Prompt for this week's challenge
and I chose the word LOVE.  When Kirsty asked me to be a guest the
first word that popped into my head was LOVE. I am pretty sure that
is because I am loving life right now.  I was also asked to share one of my favorite
camera tips..  So if you want to hear what that is you can skip on over and check it out HERE.

Thanks so much to Our Beautiful World for inviting me to be their host this week.

I am also playing along with Kathy's


The song this week is 
"The Best Day of my Life"
by American Authors


Man you can really over-think this title.
I have had a whole lot of best days, but any day spent
with family ranks right up there. 




We had a great time out at the Pumpkin Patch. OK maybe it wasn't the 
BEST DAY OF MY LIFE
But it will be a day I truly enjoyed and will remember for a long time to come.




 I have never seen so many pumpkins in one place in all my life.




So many shapes and sizes how does one choose.
It was a little overwhelming.



For me I tend to go for the little pumpkins.
I live in a small space so a small pumpkin fits in nicely.

So that's all I have for this Best Day Loving blog post.
I hope you enjoyed seeing my Orange post my friends.

Till next time

Hugs~

I like the new look and the pumpkins. I need to change mine too, but can barely keep up with the blogs I follow, let alone spice up my own. Change is good.

Thanks for joining in on Song-ography.

Hello, so happy to see you as the guest this week at OBW. What a wonderful prompt for us this week. I love the pumpkin patch and pictures, can never have enough pumpkins, so fun seeing this many isn't it. Looks like you found the perfect little one.
Thanks for sharing and inspiring us this week. I'm in love with your photography and the words to go along with them. Such a wonderful gift to have and share with others. Happy weekend!

AppleApricot Wen said...

Hi sweetie, love your new blog look! And so happy to see you being our guest team member at OBW, because you're a great photographer (and editor too) and I'm learning a lot by just looking at your photos. Thanks for the tip you shared with us, I'll have a look if I can find that feature on my camera.
And what a beautiful day that must have been between the pumpkins with your family. A cherished moment.

Hugs
