Scavenger Hunt Sunday 07.14.13

Since I have been slowing down on the blogging for the summer, I have also taken a break from the scavenger hunts.  Not really intentionally.  Just kinda worked out that way.  But since I have missed participating, I thought I'd throw together something today.  

{relaxing}

This frog was relaxing in the pond while the boys were trying to catch critters.  He never moved the whole time we were there.  I guess he felt safe since he was out of their reach.

{inspiring person}

My three crazy kids are inspiring to me.  They not only help me strive to be a better mom, they also teach me to loosen up and have more fun!

{written words}

Alex wrote this note for me a while back.  I have it hanging on my wall by my laptop so I can see it often.

{memories}

Alex invited me to a tea party.  So one evening we sat in the dining room and had iced tea in our "fancy" cups with chocolate chip cookies.  I set up the camera on the tripod to capture our memories.

{best friend}

Alex and Nick have this love/hate relationship going, as I'm sure most brothers their age do.  One minute they are best friends, the next they are trying to kill each other.  I'm not sure which I captured in this photo.  :)

Thanks for stopping by!  Next week's list is sponsored by me, so I better be sure to participate!  :)  And I'd love it if you did too!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday 06.09.13

By the time most of you read this we will be on our way to a fun family getaway for a couple days.  A much-needed mini vacation.  WOOT!  Even though school is now out for the summer, I have still been busy preparing for Vacation Bible School and doing photo shoots (yay!).  So a couple days away is just what we need!

I did manage to get all the Scavenger Hunt items for this week.  Even if I did have to take a few Saturday evening.  :)

{dishes}

At a lunch with some ladies from church recently I was telling them how I check the thrift stores for photo props all the time.  I had mentioned that I would like to be able to buy just one plate instead of a whole set of dishes, but they don't offer them that way.  The following Sunday one of the ladies brought me a couple plates she had.  This is one of those dishes.  Isn't that sweet?!

{favorite color}

Purple is my favorite color so I was delighted to find this purplish daisy growing among my flowers.

{sunflare}

I was playing around trying to get some sun flare while Alex happily played in the dirt.  He didn't even know I was taking his picture.

{expression}

A friend of mine gave me this head massager thingy.  It feels really good.  And the kids love it when you use it on them, except Alex and Nick both make this expression every time.  They say it tickles.  But they still don't want you to stop.  :)

{sticky}

Post-it notes - aka sticky notes - are something that get used a lot at our house.

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you have a wonderful week!  Be sure to visit Ashley for more great Scavenger Hunt finds!
