It turned out to be such a beautiful day today. After hubby got home from work, I suggested we go to a nearby park to go get some fresh air and take some pictures. Cause you know me, I loveeeee to take picchhhurrreees! We wanted to go to a really nice park but it was too far away and we were low on gas and payday's not until tomorrow! LOL We went to this park that is "allright". It's nice because it has ducks, swans and geese even! BUT, it's dirty. The lake on one far end was full of trash and junk and crap. There was even a baby walker floating on there. WTH? LOL! People are so careless, I swear. Anyway, we went to the nice, clean end and got up close to the ducks and took pictures. I like to practice, practice so I take pics of random crap. LOL! Silly, right?

Anyway, we didn't stay too long. No, not because of the dirty lake. We left because there were bees stalking me! Yes, you heard right! BEES were stalking ME! I bet they read my blog! Damn, don't you hate stalkers! hahahaha No, but seriously... I am so dead afraid of bees it's not even funny. I've never been stung by one but I was so scared that it'd sting Sofia. I kept running away from them. Joe kept telling me, "Don't run away! They'll sting you if you do... don't move." Helllllll no! Is he crazy? Not move and let it sting me? Pshaaaaaa, c'ya later alligator! I bet I looked funny to people in the park watching us. I bet there were like, "Heh! Look at that crazy lady, running all over the place. Running away from a stinking bee. That scardie cat!" LOL! Those bees bothered me the whole time we were there! I was so paranoid while I took pictures that one would land on me and sting me... I was even ordering Joe to keep and eye on the baby when I was taking shots because I was paranoid that they'd sting her.

[/hidepost]Right before we were leaving, Joe, Sofia and I sat on a bench. He was making fun of me running around all over the place away from the bee. I told him, "I didn't want to get stung by the bee!" and just as I said that, a bee lands on Sofia toy on the stroller. I was holding her so no biggie but sheesh! They wouldn't leave us alone! He was like, "Let me take a picture of it!" I handed him the camera and was like, "Here you go, give it your best shot. Show me what you can do!" "Shooooot, I got skills...!", he says. hahahaha! Well, he does. He took this picture of us. And it came out magnificent if I do say so myself! I'm glad I let him play with the camera because I never get pictures of ME with Sofia. I'm always the one taking pictures like crazy so I never get to be in them.

When we drove home, I said to him, "Man, those bees were really after me, huh?! How funny..." And you know what he said?
"Of course they were after you. Cause you're so sweet baby..."
bwahahahaha. Ok, maybe it wasn't like the most romantic line but I'll take it as one! I loved it. I love it when he gets cheesy like that with me.
Maybe the bees were really following me because I had a bright yellow fake flower in my hair! hahahahaha. I took it off towards the end.
Yeap, that had to be it.
Doh!
I took a lot of pictures of birds today so I thought this song would be appropriate! *hehehe*
Download all or some of these songs!!ps. Make sure you take a look at my "Asides" blog on the right sidebar. There's a link to an awesome and handy dandy wp-plugin! I love it! I hope you will too!
What are your plans for this weekend?
Well your pictures make the park seem beautiful. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat sucks its so unkept.
I am going to a dinner party on saturday and then on sunday I think a home check for the rescue and I want to go to Nordstroms and use my gift certificate before it expires.
Have a wonderful weekend! :-)
XOXO
Jackie's last blog post..OMG! Breathe. Just Breathe.
OMG I hate bees! We used to have this HUGE bees nest in the tree right in front of our apartment, so every day there would be tons of dead bees on our porch; if we left the porch light on, they would be attracted to it, and like, 3 or 4 of them would be buzzing away on it. UGH. I'm so glad that damn thing is gone.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures, as always!
Plans for the weekend? WORK! Haha. I've been off all week!

ReplyDeleteI WANT A CAMERA! You tease me with those pix! lol
ReplyDeleteSad that the park is run down like that. It makes me so mad that people STILL litter! Don't they read or see what will happen to our Earth!
I just love that pix of you and Sofia! I will take a 5x7 please! lol
I'm glad you had a nice time. But girl I hear you about the Bees. They love me. I swear in Oak Harbor every summer I packed away my perfume and pretty lotion's cause it would lesson the chance of me being stung. I got stung pry 4 times and had a stiff neck twice! LMAO Ok picture this, me walking by a pretty bush with flowers. The girls get by fine, it ME they want. Buuzzz Buzzz I'm freaking and jerking here and there thinking "Yes I can out shimmy a Bee, it wont get me" I make it out safe. But one problem.....my neck is pulled and I walk around like a dork for 2 days. THANKS MR.BEE! I'm scared of the Wasp here!
OMG and on the news JUST last night. There is this house and the people LIVE with the bees! They have lived inside there walls for years. But now they say the bees are more aggressive and want them taken care of. WEIRD! I would MOVE! lol
Weekend plans, well I'm getting my nails done and then I may have to take my sister up to get her boys, the go on Spring Break. So I'm not sure but at least I will have me time.
Have a wonderful weekend!!!!

oh Mujer I totally feel you about the bees. I also have never been stung and I grew up smack in the middle of an orange orchard so during blooming every year I they would be everywhere. I hate them and run adn scream when they get near me!
ReplyDeleteAs for this weekend, one of my favorite Tio's is turning the big 50 and we are heading to my home town (about 2 hours away) to celebrate. I mean they are having a taquero so the drive is totally worth it!
I love all the photos! Your editing skills are also amazing. The picture of you and Sophia is so cute. I need to get out and start taking more pictures, I also love photography, but I can't do all that cool stuff like you do with your photos.
ReplyDeleteI would of done the same thing if a bee was stalking me! I've only been stung once when I was 8, and I freaked out! I kept repeating "A BEE! A BEE STUNG ME!" I must of said it oh, 20 times!
I have to work this weekend like always until 2 am. The weekend is the only time I work though so I can't complain.
Bees are really annoying and I'm glad you guys didn't get stung!
ReplyDeleteI love the photos, they're all are so pretty! I'm going to an airshow this weekend and I'm going to attempt to take some pics. Hope you have a good weekend! :)

ReplyDeletethe photos look incredible! You sure have the eye for photography.
ReplyDeletetrench's last blog post..Noooo! Kaba Modern in the bottom TWO!
LOCA! That was a major rule when I was GS camp counselor -- even the little 5 year old girls I worked with KNEW not to run from a bee because they smell fear and they chase you silly! LOL you stay put, they smell you, then they fly away because you don't give a cheet about them. ;) NEXT TIME YOU KNOW! And of course, next time take out the yellow flower in your hair! DUH!
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures comadre!! LOL @ those darn bees following you. It's too bad about that park...suck how people cant take better care of them?! Practicing with random stuff isn't silly.....as you can tell by my flikr, I do exactly the same!! LOL!! Otraves, must be an aNa thing!! :) My hubby and I enjoyed a day at the park last Sunday also. Beautiful day and we enjoyed taking pics of tons of random stuff!! If weather permits, we might go to the park again tomorrow!!

Sounds like a fun time at the park, save for the bees. I've been stung, it's not fun.
ReplyDeleteI'm in Texas for the next week or so visiting family and going to a conference (Dallas to Austin to Houston).
