Photographs have always been important to me. Way back before I really knew what an F-stop was and I was happy with just a disposable film camera or (eventually) a point and shoot digital camera, I was always photographing something: vacations, parties, flowers around my parents’ house, pretty much anything I could capture. When I started my photography business, my casual photographing came to an end. I spend my days using a camera and just wanted to sit back and enjoy family functions without a camera in front of my face. I was also afraid of becoming the family ”crazy girl with the camera”.
Yesterday I got the itch to bring my gear to a family function again. I’ve been missing being able to thumb through the photographs from personal events and I finally just figured I’d rather be the crazy girl with a camera than miss capturing the moments that are so special to us. We spent the afternoon at my husband’s uncle’s farm. He has been working hard getting everything fixed back up since last year’s tornado.
My daughter loves to sit on the porch swing (I’m blaming the annoyed expression on her allergies & not PCS, otherwise known as photographer’s child syndrome). 
There is a Tire Swing upstairs in the barn. The barn got hit pretty hard by the tornado so its to great to see it back in good shape.
This is one of my favorites. 
Can’t have a farm without a windmill~ I am in love with it because it reminds me of Nebraska (where I grew up).
Have a wonderful day!

This post really hit home with me. I too have always taken photos. I began with a Kodak 110! But your photos touched me also. I love the treatments on them and how they “feel” like home. Thanks for a wonderful post.
