Weekly Winners 4 – 10 Jan

Posted in Uncategorized Tags: B&W, Bradley, Connor, mom, outing, Toys, Weekly Winners

We took the kids to the Lion Park last Sunday, and here are more photos that I really like…

Lunchtime

Crows waiting for a snack

Cheetahs – these were taken through a fence, so you can slightly see the fence shape in the bokeh around the cheetah

Bradley and a 3 month old lion cub

It was a BIG week this week. Connor started nursery school on Monday. He refused to pose nicely, he wanted to make sure he had his juice bottle and dummy (pacifier)!

One of the baskets of kids books in my mom’s lounge

Story time with granny

And then yesterday it just rained and rained… so the kids tore the house apart had some indoor fun…
Practicing some fine motor skills

I couldn’t get your photos to load last night. *Phew* I am really pleased they loaded this morning. I am fascinated by the crows. I have never seen black and white crows before. Well probably because I have never been to South Africa but I haven’t seen them on nature doccos either. Connor doesn’t look happy about going to nursery school does he.. I hope he had a great time. Veronica photographed my bookshelf this week as well Great Photos Jeanette

Story time with Grammy is great. Okay, they’re all great; but that’s one that would go in a 5×7 frame on the wall if it were mine.

The cat shots just mesmerize me, how they seem so much like house cats in so many ways, but bigger and more dangerous. Beautiful shots! The shot of Connor before school is just precious.
