F is for Fluffy New Kitten!

I got a new kitten!

I named her Ronnie.

After Ronnie James Dio. I don't know if any of you know who that is, but if you don't he was a heavy metal singer. Some of his hit songs were:

Holy Diver, Rainbow in the Dark, Man on the Silver Mountain.

When we are on our way to one of my soccer games if one of his songs comes on the radio, 

I always end up scoring a goal or two...or three.
 My dad thinks he is a good luck charm or something.

So, my dad was joking earlier when I got her that I should name her Dio.

But I was kind of like, um no way, that doesn't fit.

So I decided on just Ronnie.

What do you think of her name?

F is for Firework Linky!

Edit Me Week 26

From this..

to this.

What I did:

• Highlighted the picture with blond, then with brown.
• Fancy focus, the baby was already the focus of the picture but I made it so he was even more so.
• Focal soften, softening everything else.
• Then I turned the clarity up to 23%.

What do you think of my edit?

WW: Whats in the Garden?

Broccoli

Roma Tomatoes

Zucchini

Bell Peppers

 Random flowers.

And guess what else is in the garden.

One of my hens has a nest in there!

If she doesn't hatch them real soon I will have to move her so she doesn't

eat all the veggies!
