Scavenger Hunt Sunday 04.13.14

First of all I need to say Happy Birthday to my Nick!  He turned 11 years old at 1:45 a.m. today.

Second, spring is here!  The last few days have been absolutely gorgeous!  We will have a little hiccup on Tuesday if the weather folks are correct (they said that four letter word that we have had enough of!), but we should get right back to warm temps and sunny skies.  The grass is turning green again, flowers are popping up, and folks are just in better moods overall.  I love it!

Anyway, here are my finds for this week's Scavenger Hunt ...

{neglected}

Honey, our Golden Retriever, would want you to believe she is neglected.  So you would pay more attention to her.  But the truth is - she is spoiled rotten.  :)

{signs of spring}

We are finally seeing signs of spring everywhere!  Yay!

{last thing I bought}

I bought some tulips from a friend's son for a fundraiser.  They were delivered this week and they are absolutely gorgeous!

{shadow}

Okay, so I didn't take a shadow photo this week.  However, who can pass up a pretty sunset?

{four things}

Last fall I dug up the jungle that once was my flower bed.  Seriously, it was out of control.  However, I couldn't find my spring flowers because, well, they are spring flowers.  So I waited until they popped out of the ground and dug them up this week.  I placed them into these four paint cans that I had purchased many years ago with the intent of doing something crafty with them.  :)

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit Ashley for more great Scavenger Hunt finds!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday 04.06.14

Happy April!  Spring has officially arrived!  Flowers are starting to spring up in my flower beds and the temps are gradually warming up.  Except for Saturday when it snowed (just flurries) and was rather chilly.  :)  I'd probably be lying if I said that will be the last snow we see this spring.  Though I am hoping.

Anyway, on to this week's Scavenger Hunt ...

{macro}

A macro shot of something in our home.  Can you guess what it is?

{wheels}

I told Alex I needed a photo of wheels so he asked me to photograph his newest toy car.

{shiny}

I bought some Jelly BeadZ a while back and never did anything with them until this week.  I put them in water so they could expand, which is their main purpose.  The kids had a blast playing with them.  And they are pretty shiny.

{weather}

We experienced all sorts of weather this week.  Snow on Sunday; a thunderstorm and lots of rain on Thursday and Friday; and some sunshine in between.

{favorite sport}

This one of from the archives.  Alex's favorite sport is soccer.  This is from last year after he got his award.

That's all from me!  Be sure to pay a visit to Ashley to see more great Scavenger Hunt photos!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday 01.27.13

Hello!  It is time for another Scavenger Hunt!  I missed last week due to lack of creativity.  Seriously, I just kept looking at the prompts and thinking what in the world am I going to photograph?!  And while I realize that is part of the challenge, I just wasn't into it.  So I skipped a week. 

Anyway, I'm back this week and that's really all that matters.  :)

This week's prompts are Lace, Bling, Wood, Fuzzy, and Fabric.  And here are my interpretations ...

{lace}

Some of the scrapbooking/card-making ribbon I have had forever.  A texture from SKC Photography added.

{bling}

Nature gave us lots of bling with a heavy frost.  It covered everything and was absolutely gorgeous!

{wood}

I never tire of this tree.  Especially covered in frost.  Gorgeous!

{fuzzy}

Honey is our fuzzy baby.  She went with Alex and me on a walk last week.

{fabric}

I bought some new bedding a while back and finally got around to putting it on our bed.  This is one of the pillows that came in the set.

That's it for me.  Now to get outside and do some tubing with the kids on this gorgeous winter day!

Have a great week!
