Tulips

I bought myself some gorgeous tulips at Costco the other night.  I figured that since I buy everyone in the family treats there, I should buy one for myself as well.  Also, I need something to photograph, right?  I know I haven’t posted for a couple of days. (Life has been crazy!)  In order to make up for my absence I decided to take THREE pictures today.  Please choose your favorite photo and tell why.  Thank you.  Also, if you don’t like tulips, I wouldn’t check this blog for the next couple of days.  ;)

All in a Days Work

If the ‘Hat’ Fits

 

Take Down

My friend Jaime found out I wasn’t going to have a Christmas tree this year because of E and just couldn’t stand it.  For my birthday she bought us one.  It’s now time to put away the decorations and I just don’t want to.  Let me just say, I’m SO GLAD I don’t have to put away a full size tree.  I love miniature ornaments.  The children decorated it for us, I think they did a great job!

Truck Stop

I went outside this morning to listen to the birds for a moment and I spotted this:

You can never be too safe.

Quieting the Night

Hush Now

My babies are under the weather again.  J just can’t seem to kick his cough and G’s is starting to become stronger.   After jumping on ‘Bruce’ (our trampoline, thanks to Aunt Ann for the name) the children sound terrible and once they are trying to go to sleep they can’t seem to settle in.  That’s when I use my magic.  Thanks to my mother in law, Betty, I have a secret that works better than anything in the store, half Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar, half honey.  It works like a charm.  Then I send them to bed with a cup of tea and honey.   Nighty night.

 

 

 

Creation

I gave G a new doll house furniture set today.  I couldn’t help myself, it was on clearance at Target.  E had been sleeping and she didn’t have access to her other doll things so she made use of what was available.  G has a wonderful imagination.

Aiming Higher

The first day of my 365 project I cheated and used a photo from Christmas.  Day Two:  I forgot I had a project.  Day Three: I’m using a a photo from the other day to make up for Day 2 and TADAAA, Day 3, trampoline pictures from TODAY.  I’m learning that my subjects are JUMPING.Through the Looking Glass

Ann Made Me

C and J on Christmas

 

I am going to attempt a 365 project.  I won’t be making any promises to succeed, but I’ll do my best.  This photo is from Christmas morning, not from New Year’s morning.  I just don’t think there is a better photograph to start with.  I’m cheating already, what can I say?
