My Pride & Joy!

YES! These are MY boys, they are my E V E R Y T H I N G!!!!! From models for my photography business to cuddling in bed in the mornings, my life would be OH SO BORING without them!
My first is already 4 and will be 5 in May. I just can't believe he's almost 5 and you know what that means?! KINDERGARDEN!! Already, my baby is going to start school next fall. YIKES!
And that is my littlest munchkin on the right, he's turning 2 in February and I am holding on to every moment with him... he's still my little one year old and likely my last child so I savor everything with him. It's all gone WAYYY to fast!
Here's to my boys, I LOVE YOU!
       
These photo's were taken in our front yard right before dusk. Canon 20D, 24-70 ISO set to 200, f/2.8 (all the way open) speed was 125 (I think). I used a vintage action for the saturated color and then overlaid the photo, in Photoshop, with a texture. Too many steps honestly but thought it was fun for these two pictures.
