I hope you’ll indulge me for a day. We spent Labor Day weekend at the fair (Eleanor rode a pony while her great-grandmama yelled “giddy up!”), we went shopping, headed out to the farmer’s market, walked around our neighborhood for hours, spent time with a friend from out of town, did a lot of cooking…
Do you see what was missing from that list? Work. I took the weekend off (which I never do). I don’t have anyone to help with the kids on Tuesdays, so I tend to get my posts ready beforehand. But then last night, my bed was calling and I wasn’t ready to stay up late in the name of work. I’m extending my long weekend by another day. Today is for dancing with the kids to Paul Simon, going to the park, and maybe a little nap for everyone.

What type of effect are you using for the photo? Is it in photoshop or are you using a special lens?

The blur is from the lens (my nifty fifty), and the color and processing was done in Photoshop. I like to use actions from Totally Rad.

Thanks, everyone. We had a nice day off.

No need to ask for a day with your family! Sometimes our greatest ideas come to us when we’re turned ‘off’ anyways.
Hope you had a wonderful day!

Glad you gave yourself a little vaca from work. It’s always good to do that once in awhile. :) And that is a lovely pic of Eleanor!

Aw, good for you! Sounds like you had a lovely weekend and I hope this extra day is just as good! Don’t worry — we’ll still be here when you get back. ;)

Ah, but you still put up a new post! It still takes me forever to create the shortest ones…so I’m impressed.
Enjoy your extra time!
Making it Lovely
Yes… I did still do a little work. Not as much as a normal post that takes hours though!

Enjoy your extra day off :)
