Here are the next round of photos for my photo a day challenge at Get It Scrapped.  I am having so much fun at this!

A full Plate – Day 6

So it is a full bowl not a plate, but the peaches here in the summer are to die for!  I am serious this family puts them away.  I am the lady walking out of Sam’s every week with 4, count them, 4 boxes of peaches.  And yes, I will be back for 4 more next week!

Architecture – day 7

This is the architecture of a work out.  Our entire family goes and climbs stairs for 1 hour on the weekend.  The girls and I run/walk up and down 4 flights then run around the back side of the bleachers just to do it again and again.  John does it with 67 pounds strapped on his back!  Woo Hoo

gobbledygook – day 8

Three brown haired girls in our house (4 counting me)  Can you tell who is who or is it just a bunch of Gobbledygook?  Thanks Tami for bringing us a great word, so fun to say!

Bloom where you are planted – day 9

So these lovely cucumber plants are more than happy to bloom where they are planted in fact this is a flower bed that we use for them on the side of our house and 2 plants have now grown the entire length of the 12 foot plot.  happy, happy, happy and cucumbers coming out our ears, good thing we like them a lot!

Frame – day 10

I realized as we playing at the park on one of our few school free days left that one of the parts of the play set looks just like a poloroid so we definitely needed to pose!

Clearly – day 11

Clearly I have a bump in the bed!  Hmm, wonder what it could be…

Thanks Lori for “helping” make the beds!

Don’t Blink – day 11

I think you get it

Cat Nap – Day 12

Yep even John is getting included.  This amazing man is working way too much right now, he deserves as many of these as he can nab!

Another wee photographed for fun.  I’ll be back next week with more!

Happy Wednesday!

Hello all!  I am playing along with a photo a day challenge over at Get It Scrapped.  The group there came up with a quirky list of daily inspiration to be caught on film for the month of August to get us picking up our cameras.

Not sure yet what I am going to do with all my fun photos but I did promise I would share them along the way, so here is my first group.  I am finding a few topics to be a little more challenging so I am not going to continue in order but as I find things to fill the holes.

August 1 – August

Here is a look at our August.  It is a quieter month at least at first glance.  Swimming and diving have taken pat of the month off, but we are busy getting ready for school on the 14th!  And Lori left the sweet post it for me to keep me smiling.

August 2 – on cloud 9

Yum, these put me on cloud 9!  I drooled over them at the Whole Foods store and John bought them for me.  Thank you John!!!

August 3 – if the shoe fits

Well this particular day we were supposed to be going to the zoo BUT john got called in so plans changed, I mowed the lawn and wore my work shoes instead of play shoes.  It worked and we got to the zoo the next day so disaster avoided!

August 4 – new

Yeah zoo day and a special treat of a NEW Imax, Kenya, African Safari.  It was fun and the zoo was perfect, overcast so cooler so we could take in all the outdoor exhibits which we don’t do all the time.

August 5 – ant’s eye view

Looking up at my two girlies that keep shooting upward daily!

So the rest of my shots will most likely be out of order.  But sounded like there were several others doing the same, besides this is for fun.  I am taking all of my pictures with Instegram so I am playing around with filters on all of them and that is why a few look a little different.  i plan on printing them and maybe doing a mini album or squeezing them into a few scrapbook pages we shall see.  It is certainly not to late if you would like to play along come join us HERE!

Happy Wednesday all!
