Photo Hunt #5: High




This week's photo hunt theme is "high". Knowing the themes in advance is such a big help to me. I'm consciously and unconsciously looking for "subjects" (that is so pro sounding! hahaha!) that would be perfect for the themes.

The pictures here were taken at San Antonio Sea World (I have tons and tons of photos from Sea World!) on the first Sunday of March. At first, I was intending these photos for the theme "metal". But I think they are more of a perfect fit for this week's theme. :)

Who wants a rollercoaster ride?


*holds breath at this point in anticipation of a drop*


Wiiiiiiiii!!! :D

Nope, I didn't go on the ride and my perfect excuse would be....no one will look after my daughter. Hahaha!

I have another high here. It's chocolate heaven, I'm telling you! ;)

Have a fab weekend, y'all! :D

WS #4: Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch



Last Saturday, 15 March 2008, we spent the afternoon at the Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch, supposed to be the most visited safari park in Texas. This trip to San Antonio gave my family a wonderful chance to see so many beautiful animals at very close range, and from the comforts of our car at that. Opportunities to take photos seemed to present themselves one after another. It was hard not to stop every minute to take a picture of every goat, every dear...every single one of them! :)


I love the color of this group. They reminded me so much of, er, tiramisu. :)




Some of the animals went about their business in groups. While some, preferred to be left by their lonesome.




Others preferred to eat the grass instead of the feeds that visitors so excitedly offer them.



A few of them seem so used to being the center of attention.




And some were just too willing to have their close-up taken. :)




This giraffe definitely knows how to work the camera. She looks a little flirty here if you ask me. ;)


This safari trip was a first for us and Abby is obviously very thrilled. :)

Have a great week, everyone!

WS#1: Madonna and Grandchild

The very first weekend after my Mom arrived in Austin for a vacation with us, we drove off to Dallas for some R & R. On 29 December, Saturday, we spent a few hours at the Dallas Arboretum. There's no better way to relax than to be one with nature. Plus, I kinda had a hidden agenda...I wanted to play with my new toy, and take pictures of flowers. Hee hee!

As luck would have it, there weren't too many flowers to take pictures of because it's, er, winter. My bad. You can't really blame me for not knowing these things because I was born and raised in the Philippines, a tropical country (Excuses, excuses!). All was not last though. In the absence of more gorgeous flora, I was able to focus more on my loved ones and some of my favorite pics, were those I took of my Mom and Abby. :D So, without further I ado, I present to you a series of photos of the two women in my life having a conversation in the park and which I am aptly calling: Madonna and Granchild. ;)















I have many more photos of Abby and her Mimi, which will surely find their way to this site soon.


Note: This is my first entry to Weekend Snapshot. You can check-out other entries here.

Welcome!

Hello there! I am Munchkin Mommy and this, to say it bluntly, is a public display of the memories we have mapped through the thousands of photos we've taken over the years. If a picture paints a thousand words, and I believe it does, then the photos will more than speak for themselves. But don't worry, there will be commentaries just the same. Hee hee! ;)

I hope you enjoy viewing the photos that will be making their way here as much as we enjoyed taking and being in them.

Cheese! Oops, I meant "cheers"! :D
oOo


For my very first entry, let me share the photos of 2 of my most favorite and most loved people on the face of the known universe...hubby and my little girl, Abby. These photos were taken at the Dallas Arboretum on 29 December 2007. I call these my Paparazzi Series. ;)
