Tomorrow, we have to turn in a poster that answers some questions we were given about Travis and includes some pictures of him. Well, you can see below what happens when you give Travis and I a computer full of pictures and a poster board to fill up! I busted out some old die-cuts to put on there and die cut some letters for his name and Voila!!! a poster about him. During the year, a child will be the Kindergartener of the week and their poster will hang in the hall and they will be featured in class. I am betting he is going to hate that when his turn comes but he's darn proud of his poster at least!
Now...did you notice the picture of his turtle on that poster? Well...the photographer of the family would be yours truly. And so the task of photographing 3 little turtles all together for this poster became mine at ooooh about 3pm today. So I round them up out of their tank and plop them in a bowl. Outside we go into the yard after putting the dogs in the house (licking turtles is GREAT fun....who knew). Well...these are little guys. The biggest one is only about the size of the palm of my hand and the smallest is about the size of a 50 cent piece. So....there I am....on my belly....in the yard....getting eye to eye with these little turtles. All for the love of a boy. :o) I KNOW i looked hilarious cause the little one (yes..that seems to be it's name) and Aleena (the biggest one) kept coming to me and getting out of my frame. Jack wouldn't peek his head out of his shell so I'm laying in the grass on my stomach (getting bit my fireants too I found out a few moments later), yelling at 3 little turtles. But they are cute. And Travis loved the picture. So i guess it was all worthwhile....
where you going little one???
Now Aleena get's in on the escape action (jack hiding in his shell....)
OOOh so close, almost (oh and I tried stacking them largest to smallest...that didn't work)
Finally! Success.
Just because it's cute....

I just smiled and smiled Lindsey...I can just see you trying to get those turtle pics! Travis, I really like your poster and your turtles...I bet you will be the first child picked to hang your special poster in the hall. Great Job! "Mama"
Travis, you are a very lucky little boy to have a mommy who likes to take pictures. She can capture the best (and worst at times) of you or whatever she is clicking at the moment. Love the pictures and loved being there when some of them were taken. Mema
