Projects 52 and 365

Project 52, Week 30 - Defeat

 We play a lot of games around our house.  D really enjoys the interaction and competition of playing board games.  We're trying to teach her to be a good loser and a good winner.  This week she picked out games and we played each day.  It worked out nicely for the weekly photo prompt too!
Guess who was defeated?!?!

 Project 365, Days 73-79

 I continued to focus on play this week while photographing the kids.  We played games, pretended to be animals, and opened an ice cream shop to name just a few things!  Focusing on the play has made the week fun and given lots of interaction between everyone in the family.  As a result everyone has smiled more, creating peace and joy through the week.

 My prompts this week are from a different place than previous.  I used those from Capture Your 365. I signed up to get daily reminders of the prompt for the day.  In the email is also a photography tip to help with the technical and/or creative side of photography.  I'm going to use the prompt as a guide only.  If I can get a good photo that matches great.  If my photo is great but not about the prompt that's fine too!
Day 73- Nail Polish
I wasn't wearing any nail polish.  So I used some of my editing knowledge and added it using Pixlr.com.

Day 74 - Ride
D being a horsey for S to ride on

Day 75 - In the air
The kids were pretending to be various animals that jump - frogs, kangaroos, and of course magical horses.

Day 76 
 I didn't use the prompt but took a photo of the morning fog.

Day 77 - Sun
D sitting in front of the sun in the window after MANY days of clouds and rain.
I love that I've learned how to "blow out" the background!

Day 78 - Knobby
I wish this was real!

Day 79 - Attitude
S's face ... need I say more?

Great Country Farm

Image
Today to celebrate Spring Break we ventured to Great Country Farm.  We went last year at Spring Break also.  The kids had so much fun, when I asked what they wanted to do this year the first thing they said was "Great Country Farm!"  So we packed up the van with kids and grandparents and off we went. Just like last year, the kids had a blast playing on the slides and bouncy pillow.  Like last year I went down a few slides too.  Unlike last year I paid attention to the "12 and under" sign and stayed off of the bouncy pillow!  The kids also fed some goats, bounced on pigs, climbed on a bunch of wooden obstacles, and tried out the rope swing. And of course, no trip is complete without a little gem hunting! Last, but not least the kids rode the cow train.  S was till upset we didn't do this last year.  He definitely enjoyed the ride more than D!

Happy Easter

Image
I hope you and your family had a wonderful, happy Easter!  Ours sure did!!!!   We started the fun on Saturday evening by decorating Easter eggs.  We managed to spill 0 cups of egg dye and I only cracked 3 eggs while boiling them.  As you can see, egg dying is a serious and thought provoking experience in our house. The Easter Bunny left baskets on the table and hid eggs downstairs for the kids on Easter morning.  The baskets had an art book, a book to read, Mad Libs, Tsum Tsums, one small toy, and some chocolate.  We spent the afternoon with family having another egg hunt and dinner.  It was a great way to spend a warm, Easter Sunday!

Here Come the Police!

Image
Like most little boys, S is obsessed with anything that moves, makes noise, and has buttons.  I guess that's why one of his favorite toys right now is a remote control police car he got from my parents.  He drives around, where he wants it to go.  Although he does point the control backwards most of the time so when he pushes the reverse arrow it actually goes forward.  When it drives it makes siren noises.  Plus it has buttons on the car and the remote to push.  What more could a three year old boy want from a toy?!?!?
