Here’s a few pictures of some of the fellas here on the ranch. I’m cooking for the ranch this week so I might be scarce. Don’t forget about me!

My Little Cookie Monster
October 30, 2008 By 6 Comments
Remember these Honey Sweet Cookies I made a while back?? Well this little man does and thought they were the best cookies in the world. I thought it would be the perfect picture to enter into 5 Minutes 4 Mom’s contest about fun, family food. Well, there’s more to it but you can go read [...]
Editing Grainy Pictures and Cloning
September 17, 2008 By 5 Comments
I recently had a guest post on my food blog from Maternal Spark. Well, actually it’s a republished post of Butterfly Cupcakes with a little photo editing. I’m getting pickier about the photos that go on my food blog and not that hers were bad but they were a bit grainy and there was a distraction. With [...]
Photoshop for Little Ones
August 19, 2008 By 5 Comments
I recently wrote about the cool Vtech V-Motion, which is awesome, but have you seen the cool KidiArt Studio? This, to me, is like photoshop for the kiddos. This is a toy that can really bring out the creativity in your little one for sure! It hooks up to your TV or PC so that [...]
Weekly Photo Pickins’
August 3, 2008 By 21 Comments
I think all these photos represent Summer fun! You’ve got steak from barbecuing, the beautiful scenery and sunset, and a cutie patootie swimmer. What else could you ask for? BUT, since I can only enter ONE photo into the 5M4M contest, I’m entering the third picture of my little man swimming:) Could this be part [...]
Simple Color Highlighting with Photoshop
July 29, 2008 By 11 Comments
After checking out the Diva’s tutorial on color highlighting, I thought I would recreate the tutorial using Adobe Photoshop instead of Gimp since this is what I have. Basically it’s the same thing but we have different readers so I thought I’d do it for my readers. I’ve always enjoyed seeing photos that are black [...]
Photography Tips: Standing Tall
July 11, 2008 By 4 Comments
When you photograph horses, it’s always important to get the right stance. The wrong stance can make their hindquarters look small, make them look skinny, and their head look big. Taking the picture is only half the problem, getting the horse to cooperate is the other half. I’m no professional by any means but here [...]
A Beautiful Evening
March 22, 2008 By 11 Comments
I don’t have a tripod so my sunset is a bit blurry but still worth looking at. There was no wind yesterday evening and it’s was warm. I could have sat there all night, in fact, had I had some camping gear I might have slept outside all night. I’ve been having some back problems the [...]
Unique in Their Own Way
March 13, 2008 By 6 Comments
Just a random post today. I’ve got some house cleaning to do and won’t be on the computer much today. I thought I’d post a photo of each of my loves. They are all tired and filthy but still cute. They all are so unique and it’s always interesting to see what they’re gonna say [...]
Spade Ranch Headquarters Entrance
February 27, 2008 By 6 Comments
Remember the cool ranch brands that I talked about a while ago? Well, we also saw the Spade Ranch Entrance and I found it to be quite interesting. If you don’t already know, my brother-in-law works for the Spades but in a different part of Texas than what these pictures were taken in. Anyhoo, we [...]

Hey YA’LL! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend:) We had a good time this weekend. We went to see some friends and just hangout. Of course, I was around skinny girls as usual so I better get back to takin’ my Hydroxycut. Here’s a shout out to the folks that were so kind to [...]

February 10, 2008 By 6 Comments
You know, Elmer really is a beautiful horse. He’s huge with a golden mane and tail and he really is a ‘Gentle Giant’. Our friends we’re here this weekend and when she called him this, I knew it was the perfect nickname.
