Friday

So I meant to get a bunch done today, but that didn’t really happen… Maybe tomorrow I will reply to all the comments I have gotten lately and catch up on my emails. Or maybe the next day? :)

Tonight after Ben got off work, we went to our city’s Taste Festival. There was food of course and also booths with handmade goods and photography. Someday I think it would be fun to have my own booth at events like that. For now, I just enjoyed looking at what everyone else had to offer and thinking of ways I would do things differently.
Waiting for Ben to buy some tickets for food, I took a picture of the fountain in the middle of the park and the beginnings of the crowds of people…

After we got a little bit of food (some apple donuts and slushies, yummy!) we decided to go to a park on the outside of town and take some pictures.
Sunflowers in the gardens at the park…

I also managed to take my very first pictures of a live, wild deer! It was absolutely amazing to be able to get close enough to photograph her. I was able to get a little less than 6 feet away from her. I have never been so close to a deer before in my life. Actually until earlier this year, I had never seen a deer up close in the wild (only ones standing on the side of the road and such). The amazing thing is this is the 3rd time this year I have been close to a wild deer.

I had my prime lens on the camera, so I couldn’t zoom in but I was able to get pretty close anyways!

I am definitely going to have to go back to this park again to take more photos…

All this picture taking means I haven’t done much else this week:) Hopefully this weekend I will get a little bit of sewing in! At least my laundry is finally done:)
