You Capture: Old Signs

I had a lot of ideas for this challenge this week. My parents have an old sign with my mom’s maiden name in Swedish that would have been perfect. I’m sure there was some way to twist the meaning of “old signs” to make it more creative. I would have loved to […]

You Capture: Food

When I saw the challenge for this week over at I Should Be Folding Laundry was “food”, I thought about this post. Then I thought it would be cheating. So I thought about it a little bit, and decided on…blueberries.

I have been eating blueberries this summer like they’re going out of style. I’ve been […]

You Capture: Peace

I actually thought ahead a bit on this week’s challenge. We were at the zoo on Saturday for Andy’s birthday, and as we were walking around, I noticed some things that made me feel peaceful (despite my crazy boys running around and the commotion over by the prairie dog lair that was […]

You Capture: Motion

Another week, another challenge. And this one was a little bit of a challenge. But when we were at the water park yesterday (more on that later), I thought I’d take advantage of the thousands of times Noah went down one of the water slides (Caden wasn’t much of a fan!).

[…]

You Capture: You

Well, it’s not really you “you”. It’s really me. Yup. Beth wanted us to capture ourselves. I’m not really excited about this challenge, but I’ll do it for Beth!

I actually thought ahead a little bit with this one. See, after I chopped my hair off last summer to donate to Children […]

You Capture: Friends

Friends. We’ve been with friends in the past week. I just didn’t take any pictures. I really didn’t take too many pictures at all lately. I don’t know why. Whatever.

So I went through some of our activities from the summer, and decided to include a few from […]

You Capture: Black and White

This week we were given the assignment of having fun with our processing. It was time to play around and make some pictures black and white. I’ve been taking a lot of pictures lately that I didn’t think should be put into black and white because the colors are so vivid. Here’s […]

You Capture: Shapes

I wasn’t sure if I was going to participate in Beth’s assignment this week. I wasn’t sure I could come up with something for the challenge. But then I remembered this sweet pooch from Bastille Days last weekend.

Meet Sophie. Look at her unique marking on her side.

I […]

You Capture: Independence Day and Food

Oh. I just realized that the assignment this week also included food. Hmm. I have plenty of pictures from Independence Day, and plenty of food was eaten. I just didn’t get pictures of it. But I have pictures of the boys at the parade, where they ate their fair share […]

You Capture: Nature

Our assignment from Beth at I Should Be Folding Laundry this week was “nature”. Quite a bit easier than “feel”!

I was practicing my sun flare for this shot. I love my lilac bush right now-it smells AWESOME! And it’s right below our bedroom window so our room smells really nice! […]
