Thanks for all the nice comments and emails and congrats on the 700th post.
So what to post for seven hundred and one? WordPress helped me out at the end of the week with releasing the weekly photo challenge today- UP! Thought of this photo I took in September 2004 in Hardy,Virginia. Uncle Matty tossing niece Anna up in the air. Wheeeeeee. She started second grade on Wednesday. Matty in in New York City visiting his Aunt Mary (my sister) as they prepare for the arrival of Irene. He heads back to Zagreb, Croatia, soon. You saw him on the Megabus. One thing leads to another. And Winston the rescue horse was in Hardy VA next door to Erika’s(guest blogger) parents. Anyway, I have always liked this photo and the feeling I get looking at it. The trusty Canon EOS Rebel for this shot! Newer readers might want to check out my 10-10-10 blog post of Anna hula-hooping. See time fly by.
Great photo! I caught myself smiling as I looked at the happy faces of the your subjects. I checked out your 10-10-10 blog post of Anna hula-hooping. She’s a lovely young lady now!
Wonderful photos of a happy toddler and now pretty young girl. Good luck with the challenge!
her shoes are so white!
So cute! Love the aerodynamic hair! Time flies (in all directions) when you’re having fun!!!
Perfect photo for “UP”!
How lovely!
Anna has new shoes
I love this photo! They both look so happy!
A perfect representation of “up”. And my my, how time *does* fly…
Time flies faster as they get older. I hate that. I love this picture, though. Happy Anna, happy uncle!
I love the way you always catch the most wonderful expressions on faces!
what a happy moment. thank you for sharing this great interpretation of ‘up’!
What i would do to be tossed up in the air on a sunny day. Great shot Ruth and a great feeling too.
Your family photos are so fresh and candid. This is a great 701!
