Scavenger Hunt Sunday :)

It's Sunday, & that could mean only one thing....Time for Scavenger Hunt!

First Item up: Capture the Sky


My attempt at photographing a very cool moon the other night...it was one of those spooky type skies...

Everyday


OK I went with the obvious here, but I've seen you all every now & then shoot your toothbrushes, & figured this would be fun for me! :)

Blurred


I love this shot, one from my archives...this was taken during one of our road trips last summer.

Furry


Furry? You gotta problem wit me bein furry?! You can call me furry, just dont go around callin me fluffy!

Life


Ahhh signs of life....is Spring near?  I almost can't imagine it.  What I would do to feel the warm sun & see some budding flowers!  This is a bud from our Azalia bush in our front yard... & oh my gosh if I wasn't even looking close enough this would  have easily been overlooked!  I love how photography sometimes makes me stop & appreciate the little things I take for granted :)

Have a great week!






Next Week:
Diptych
Book
Fill in the Blank: When I think about how ______________ is in the _______________, I just have to ______________.

Love Letters to Kitty Paw...

I have to say that Fred is just smitten with his kitten!



  



His love letter was chosen as part of the top 10, especially by Kitty Paw herself from several who have entered :)

How will his love letter rank amongst all that are vying for her love???

We shall see.... to be continued...

Remember it's Fred's heart that's on the line!

If you feel this bun is deserving of her love, visit Ashley & vote!

Red :)

The Paper Mama photo challenge this week is well, RED :) Thought this would make for an appropriate *red* entry!


Silly Jason :D

Always Fun at Grandma's House :)

The kiddies always bring with them literally an arsenal of toys with them...not this time for Jason though. He only brought one...his brand new Dodge Charger, because of course it's all about the *Dukes of Hazard* now.  Oh & the lengths we had to go to to even find this car for him! Anything for my boy :)


And why would I expect anything less than a goofy face from him!? It simply wouldn't be Jason otherwise :)



Princess Maddie


And oh look at the BABY! Is he just a doll?! I can't even tell you how wonderful it is to have a baby in the family again. I mean seriously, look at Cassandra, the oldest of the group..she's turning into such a young lady. Boy do I feel old, & to think she's having yet another birthday next month!


His cousins' just can't get enough of him :)


I don't think anyone of us can get enough of him! LOL! Take out the camera's everyone, the baby's laughing!!!







& oh my,  if I didn't know any better, I'd think my Johnny was having a case of the *baby itch* this day! (don't even think about darling husband:P)

Scavenger Hunt Sunday!

Well it's that time again...another week gone by, & happy to say that we actually had a few warm days and the snow is actually melting!   Can't wait to get outside and start taking some more outdoorsy shots :)

Here's my take on this weeks topics...

First item up: Chocolate :)
ummm, doesn't it just look heavenly...

Numbers

Thanks to Jason's baskball hoop for this one!


Canned Food

Ah yes, my cans of good ole Bumble Bee tuna :)

Music

This one's from the archives, I think from a previous scavenger hunt. I really want to shoot my guitar again. This was taken with the 50mm & I think I can get a nicer shot with the wider angel now...I should have taken the opportunity, but the week just ran out on my :P

Stack

These are my drawing pencils, thought this might be a good one to practice my extention tubes on.

Happy Sunday everyone :)

Thanks Ashley for hosting another fun week of scavenger hunting!

Boardgame Boredom :/

So Miss Maddie LOVES everything to do with card games, boardgames, coloring, crafts blah blah etc. etc...so with that said...here's how our afternoon started.  Her, "Mommy, surprise me with a game!"  Me, "OK here you go honey, this should be fun!"  Her, "Mommy, I don't wanna play go fish!  You're suppose to surprise me with 'Trouble'!"  Me, "Oh, excuse me, missypoo, close your eyes and I"ll be right back." 

Her, "Hurray! Trouble!"



Can this girl ever be pleased? I think not.

Kiss

Picture of the week is *Kiss* and oh my I've forgotten how incredibly cute these shots were...this one first came to mind.  & I'm thinking I'll probably submit it...



I just adore this shot...I think around March of last year.  It was literally about a month after getting my DSLR and I was absolutely shutter happy!  But glad I was, because one thing I have learned this past year, & that it's not the quality of a picture it's the moment's your capturing... Besides, this was a lucky shot, because seriously, it's a love/hate relationship between the 2. lol.


But... on my cuteness...I have this one too!


They are just too much.



And forget about it! I can't blog about the above and not include this one!

Come on kids, show me the love :)

Sweet Shot Tuesday :)

I picked this one, because it's so summery and warm :) This was a shot of Maddie picking up sea shells, as the path was made up of millions of crushed shells. Our trip to Williamsburg VA last year.

Love Letters to Kitty Paw

It's going to be Valentines Day really soon and poor Fred has no one to be his very own Valentine...Here is his letter to his dear freind Kitty Paw in the hopes that she will be *his*...

Sweet Shot Tuesday

It's my first time linking up with "life with my 3 boybarians" & today is *Sweet Shot Tuesday* So I figured this sweet face would be fitting :)



Happy Tuesday!
