You Capture: Holiday Decor

I liked the challenge presented to us by Beth this week, but I wish I’d worked on it before tonight! But I love decorating for Christmas. It helps to have Mr. Christmas living in our house-Andy loves this time of year. So we have a good time decorating.

Here are some of […]

You Capture: Lines

I admit, I’ve been a little wrapped up in Caden’s birthday, today’s snow day for Noah, and Christmas preparations that I didn’t get a chance to go out and take any pictures of lines this week. Yes, I’m admitting I cheated on Beth’s assignment this week. But I like these lines nonetheless!

I Heart Faces: Sweet Dreams

I’m going to give this another shot. I love this picture of Caden sleeping. His hair is awesome! And thanks to the fun on Picnik through my Flickr account, I was able to do some fun processing to the picture. Isn’t it dreamy?

You can see more here.

You Capture: Tell a story

Beth challenged us to tell a story using photos of what makes us happy. I decided spending time with my boys makes me happy. Decorating the Christmas tree while listening to Christmas music makes me happy. And some yummy bokeh makes me happy!

I Heart Faces: Tooshies!

I’m giving it a go again! Here’s the tooshie shot I chose to enter in the contest this week:

My aunt made a good point: it’s 2-for-1! I love this shot. Andy is reading to Caden. Why Caden chose to sit on Andy’s back like that is beyond me!

NaBloPoMo 2009 is over!

30 posts in 30 days. Done. Yeah me! And I think most of my content was pretty worthwhile!

I’ll try not to be too much of a stranger, but I’ll try to save posts for times when I have something that may be interesting to you 7 readers.

But first a couple of things.

1. […]

You Capture: Sunrise/Sunset

This week over at Beth’s, she challenged us to capture the sunrise or sunset, or to interpret sunrise/sunset at will. I went literal.

Here’s the sunrise out my back sliding door just the other morning. It’s prettier out my bathroom window upstairs, but I was in the middle of working out in […]

I’m really published!

Remember this post from September? I submitted a photo to “Signspotting” and received a check in the mail for it. I wasn’t sure where to find the picture, but I figured it had to be out there somewhere! Today, I found out where it was.

This arrived from FedEx today. Yeah me! I […]

Hanging on

This was the temperature today:

Keep in mind that I live in southeastern Wisconsin, and it’s November 8.

N-O-V-E-M-B-E-R 8!

We’re hanging on. Just like these apples.

Just like these […]

You Capture: Autumn

I enjoyed the assignment this week. I’ve always loved the colors on the trees at this time of year. And when Beth suggested we take a drive and capture something new, I took advantage. It was a beautifully sunny day here last Saturday, just begging for me to head out for a […]
