Animals At The Barn

Ever since we moved to the new stable, the visits out to see Caesar have increased - last week, we were out there four days and it would have been five days had there not been a sporting event conflict. I'll be honest, after a long week at work, I don't really want to drive 25 minutes, spend two to three hours there and drive back. I am actually looking forward to my daughter getting her license so I won't be playing the role of taxi driver. Of course, then I'll have other worries!

Last Friday, however, I realized that days like these are fleeting and will soon pass. So instead of taking a nap in the car, I decided to seek out my daughter in action.

Somebody's Watching Me
Seriously, that barn cat cracks me up. He's always in the center of the action.

What's To the Left?
I wonder what they decided to look at.

What You Looking At?
Oh, they're looking at me, giving me the "why do you continue to take photos of us?" look.

And right after I snapped that photo, the barn dog showed up.

  3. this gives me chills. I know exactly what it means to realize how time is passing so quickly. I too only have a few short years left of my daughter being home (we both have freshman daughters?) and this is such a tender time...these images are a beautiful tribute to who she is as a young woman and who you are as a mother to see her in this light. sniff sniff.

  5. On my bucket list has been the notation, "Own a horse". Now I think just photographing them will have to do. We have a farm with 16 boarded horses at the end of my street. I love to watch them from my office in the morning. These shots are great! I enjoyed your self portraits too.
