Picnik with Puffs

Our neighbors are awesome.  When we moved in next door with our little dog, Ryan was so nervous to take Oxford for a walk.  Yorkies are all over the city but Ryan worried what walking a 7 pound dog would say about his masculinity.

After standing outside for a few minutes, our neighbor walked over and introduced himself.  Mike then asked if Oxford was a Yorkie and Ryan was getting ready to sputter out his "We just moved from a condo in the city..." speech when Mike said, "Yeah, that's cool, we have one, too."  We've all been friends ever since. 

Fast forward two years and we were talking outside and I complimented one of their photos of their baby.  Mike told me they edited it in Picnik.  I had never heard of it before and checked it out first thing the next morning.  I'm in love.

This series of photos was taken when I realized that Madeline was smuggling her Puffs in her little fists from meals and then snacking on them throughout the day.  These were taken like an hour after she ate lunch:

Cool, right?  I also did text over all of them. {obviously} 

Picnik has goofy features like word bubbles, cartoon features, you can do collages, etc. etc.  The basic membership is free along with registration.  There is a premium membership also available that unlocks even more fun editing tricks.

A big thanks to Neighbor Mike for showing me this great new site that will feed even more into my computer addiction!
