What is it that makes a photograph stand out? It is certainly more than just correct exposure or whether or not the photographer has achieved perfect focus. Even photos that are technically “correct” can be BLAH if they are not well composed. And I’ve certainly seen plenty of photos that were not focused or exposed…
I’ll take the 2-hour delay…..
I’ll even take the 70 minute drive to the store… The kids went to school today (they had a 2-hour delayed start) AND Mom, AJ and I were able to make it out to my favorite store of all time (is it sad that my favorite place to shop is a thrift store??) About 10…
Honestly….
I recently received a few new awards. Keep them coming, ladies. I feel so special when fellow bloggers gift me with an award. Yeah! Please read below for some things you may not know about me….and for the unique way (read: cheat!) I’m passing this award on. This first award is from Lori at The…
Got a message this morning….
Snow Ice Rain Wet Cold School is cancelled for another day. Stuck at home again. That’s 5 days off school (yes, I’m counting Saturday and Sunday)….after the 2 weeks that I had sick kids at home, mind you. The kids are thrilled. What could be better than this? Mom and I…..well, we’re not so thrilled….
A Joke for You
Why were the early days of history called the dark ages?Because there were so many knights! I found this picture of Twizzler while making the slide show for this Sunday’s BIG DAY. I can’t believe how much he’s grown up…..but even this morning, he was playing Star Wars with light sabers and shields. He’s 100%…
Apple of my eye
AJ wouldn’t cooperate with me to get the shot that I was going for….but this will suffice. What can I say about this kid? He is my sweetheart. My baby forever. The apple of my eye. For more Wordless Wednesday photos from other great bloggers, see 5 Minutes For Mom and MomDot and A Daily…
Bloggers Unite Against CPSIA
Two women who sell on Etsy have put together a very informative post on CPSIA. See their thread here, or read on….Personally, as an avid (read: addicted) thrift store shopper, I am scared to death about what this act would mean for my ability to clothe my kids. I do not buy clothes new. That…
Snow Day Bonus!
You can imagine the hoorahs this morning when I checked the school district’s web page and discovered the news….. NO SCHOOL TODAY! So the kids got to spend another day at home with Grandma. What perfect timing! Yesterday was a teacher work day, and today was a snow day. Extra time with Grandma! After a…
Tackle it Tuesday–House guest style
My mom arrived yesterday for a week-long visit. We love it when Grandma comes to stay! The kids have a blast and I love having the extra adult interaction during the day (plus we always do a little fun shopping together. You see, I am a bargain shopping addict with no money right now, and…
Mom’s Here!!
Please excuse me from my normal blog commenting rounds this week. My Mom is in town!(Don’t worry–I’ve pre-written all of my normal posts for the week, so I’ll be around here. And I can’t keep myself completely away…..) She got here this afternoon. Just in time for a lunch trip to Chick-fil-A. The kids were…
