Young love....

We had a fun afternoon at the park today with my friend, Karen, and her two sweet kids, Laken and Marielle.  James and Laken love each other so much, it just warms your heart to see them get so excited to see each other!  oh, young love :) 
I've been working with the manual settings on my camera...trying to develop some skills and not have to use the automatic ones.  it's a work in progress, but I managed to snap a few cute ones today.  what fun!
