They are Growing Up

We planted a new field of alfalfa this year and I wanted to get some pictures of the girls in it before they cut it. I just barely made it since they are going to be swathing it tomorrow. I had hoped to get some nice, portrait quality, pictures of the girls but I'm not sure I succeeded.

They were constantly distracted by their hunt for lady bugs..a good sign in an alfalfa field since they eat the aphids that eat the hay.

Being goofy was higher on their priority list than giving Mommy a real smile.

Keeping Helena in the frame of the camera, in focus and smiling was a HUGE challenge, while keeping Hannah out of the picture.

It was fun but I think we will go back out again sometime and try again.
