I Heart Faces - Photo Contest

April 26, 2009

This week’s photo contest for the Kids Category is “Reflection” ~ I had to dig a little to find this gem, but it totally cracks me up every time I look at it.  This was the second time that Kasen ever had her face painted, and as you can see, it was quite amusing to her as well. ;)

We had to leave that face painting on until after Daddy came home from work so he could see the masterpiece, which meant she took her nap with all that face painting on.  Reminder to everyone, black face paint does NOT come out of sheets.  Lesson learned. :)

Here’s my sweetie making faces at herself - you should see the entire series - funny stuff!! :)

This week’s photo contest for the Adult Category is “Reflection” ~ I took this while we were at the Museum of Nature and Science.  While Kasen was playing all the instruments, Mom & Dad were goofing around and I snapped this.  It looks like he is peering in at himself trapped in some sort of dollhouse.  I think I’m remembering an old “Twilight Zone” episode.  LOL
