Day 59 - 2/28/2011

Madilyn Grace Courtney

Cheese!

This is my great niece, Madilyn.  She is 14 months old.  And of course, I'm not the least bit prejudice, but I think that she is absolutely adorable.

She was at my daughter's baby shower yesterday; and, when she wasn't hanging on to her Nana's skirt tail, she was the entertainment for the party (oh to be young and energetic again lol).  Madi's mother is a very good photographer, so this little princess is used to being in front of the camera.  When I pulled out my camera and started taking pictures of Madi, she started strutting her stuff!  I just absolutely love this picture of her.  I mean, is that not the cutest smile you've ever seen?

Anyway, I knew that this had to be my picture of the day for today, even though I took it yesterday.  Of course my daughter had to be the centerfold for yesterday's photo.  And you know that Kelly and my new granddaughter, Kellyanne Elizabeth, will take center stage tomorrow.

I'll update you on the news and pics once she arrives.  :-)  Until then, say a prayer that my daughter will have an easy delivery and will deliver a healthy baby girl!  Thanks!!!

Day 58 - 2/27/2011

Kelly Kirkland Moody & Sara Hathcote

My daughter is due to go into the hospital to deliver Kellyanne on Tuesday, March 1st; that is, unless she goes into labor before then.  Her church gave her a baby shower this afternoon after church.  So many wonderful friends came out to support her and give her some sweet gifts for her little girl.  I took several pictures today at the shower.   Unfortunately, most of them are on Kelly's camera.  I did take one of Sara and Kelly on my own camera.  Sara was like another mother to Kelly.  She helped me raise Kelly.  Thanks, Sara!

Japanese Magnolia

I just love the Japanese Magnolia tree.  The blooms are so beautiful.  Spring is definately in the air!

Happy Birthday, Bill & Paw Bill!

Day 55 - 2/24/2011

The campus was covered in a light fog most of the day.  I'll bet you can imagine how all of that lovely humidity affected my hair.  Well, that cloud had the same wonderful effect on my photos.  Nothing I did really brighted up any of my photos.  But it's nice to see so many trees and bushes across campus beginning to bloom. 

I found all of these flowers right outside of the cafeteria.  I was clicking away all the way back to the office (e.g., daffodils, azaleas, camellias), but I'll save some of the pics for a rainy (cheat) day.   :-)

Day 54 - 2/23-2011

Spring Hill College campus

Another sunny day in Mobile.  What a lovely day for a stroll across campus.

P.S.  I am a little behind on checking on everyone's blog (due to a personal situation), but I hope to catch back up with everone in a day or so.  I love seeing everyone's photos!
