Clementine and What Kevin Taught Me

So I had this plan to continue writing about my love affair with Clementine, but then I met Kevin.  I did do another project with Clementine and they did come out wonderful.  I was so proud of these.  My friend, Jennifer wanted her kids pics with Clementine, so we loaded up, hers, mine and my niece and off we went.  The kids are all 3rd generation of my husband's family so I got some of all of them together.  I would of love to have all of the cousins in there, but that wasn't possible so I made do with who I had.  The kids were great, as usual, I can't say enough about how good they are. They had fun, we laughed, we did silly faces, we did funny poses, they photo bombed each other, they ogled Clementine and climbed all over her and basically we just had fun.  Ms. Maggie, has turned into quite the model, she throws her hand on her hip and cocks that head and turns it on.  I really enjoyed it.

A love affair with Clementine

So for the past few weeks I have been having a love affair with Clementine. 
As soon as I saw her, I knew her name should be Clementine.







Moving Clementine for me
Clementine is a 1966 Chevy truck that I found in my father in law's pasture. She was his truck for many years and I guess he didn't get rid of her for sentimental reasons.   Now I have walked past this truck a million times, but for some reason I didn't NOTICE her until a few weeks ago.  I asked my FIL to move her to a more aesthetically pleasing location for me, he looked at me as if I had grown another head when I said I wanted to take pictures of her. Because he likes me, he did it, with a minimum of head shaking.   I just love her, she is weathered and rustic, I refuse out respect for her to say, rusty and old. 

I am quite sure my father would approve of my love affair, she is a 1966, she is a Chevy and she still has a 327 in her.  My mother would also approve, she is "weathered and rustic",  my mother hated anything modern.
