I Heart Faces: Sports and Pets
Posted on July 14, 2009

This week I got really lucky! We had a great day at the beach yesterday learning about Stand-up Paddling and Surfing with Na Kama Kai. This group of volunteers were great with the kids, very knowledgeable in their field, and full of the Aloha spirit. I was very impressed by the planning and attention to safety of the Keiki! Obviously I had to have my camera with me because what kind of mom would I be without chronicling such a great activity for the girls?
My Sports entry is my youngest daughter. I call it the birth of a monster! Why? Because she never wanted to be off the board after her first taste of surfing! LOL!

My Pet entry is this little dog that was playing with the kids on the beach and went surfing, too. He was a sweet little thing!

Now head over to I ♥ Faces and check out all the other entries!

Both are very cute shots! My pet entry is here.
Well how fun! That dog surfing makes me smile.
both shots are great – i really love the dog on the board – such fun! and the little girl is cute as can be – a surfer in the making – lol! great job!
i have my shots posted too. feel free to come on over and visit anytime :O).
I think it's great that your two pictures work so well together in two contests that seem unrelated. Nice shots.
What lovely color editing in both your photos!
Isn't it such a treat as a parent when you introduce your child to an activity they love? And what better one in Hawaii than surfing? Despite living there for 3 years, I never tried… Great color in a very sunny situation!
Your daughter looks like a natural on that board. Both my girls were afraid of the water at that age! That dog is too funny. Both are great shots!
That is such a great photo!
I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
