Mother's Day Weekend 2013

Posted on the 15 May 2013 by Sara Maurer @smaurer18
Although we were busy with sessions this past weekend , Mother's Day was still good to me. Darren was a doll and did the dishes and laundry, and got me a few gifts from him and Ryder. :-)
I have to touch on one of the gifts he got me:  the DVD "Magic Mike."  I laughed pretty hard when I opened it up, because that didn't strike me as a movie a husband would buy his wife for Mother's Day.  He said it was in the Mother's Day DVD section, so he figured why not.  I still haven't seen it....any good?  I heard you can see Matthew McConaughey's butthole in it....is that true?!  HAHA!
We had a small cookout at my parent's house Saturday evening.  We had just come from a session, so I was actually able to grab my camera and snap a few pics.

Mother's Day Weekend 2013Inside joke, but long story short, my dad makes this face and expression on purpose as a joke. 
Mother's Day Weekend 2013I crack up every time. :-)
Mother's Day Weekend 2013It had been awhile since I had taken any sort of flower picture.  I wish the sun would have been just a bit lower, but I still think it's pretty. 
Mother's Day Weekend 2013Love him. <3
Mother's Day Weekend 2013Darren told me an interesting fact:  heroes are sometimes photographed or filmed at an upward angle.  Villains are the opposite, and are somtimes filmed or photographed at a downward angle.  So, of course, he determined this picture depicted him as a hero.
Mother's Day Weekend 2013This is his "heroric face."  I guess we'll just go with it.
