24th to the 29th December

Big post with catch up photo's ! I missed one day,Sunday the 28th,I could have cheated but I haven't !

So starting with the 24th December....

Christmas Eve morning above and we had snow during the night so it all looked lovely and Christmasy outside,I decided on this one as further proof that I neglected my garden this fall......poor sweet peas ! Below is the 25th,Christmas day and I wasn't feeling 100% and I always like to just enjoy the day so I probably took 10 photo's all day all of them early in the morning !

Above is the 26th,Boxing day.We woke up and decided we'd go for breakfast and then off to Omega park since it's been a few years since we went in the winter.It was great,hardly anyone there and this is one of my favourite of all 350 odd pictures I took !!Below is the 27th December,and I hadn't taken any photo's all day so it resulted in my chopped up mushrooms.

As I said no photo for the 28th but I had a great day so that's all that matters so below is yesterday's,29th December.Again not a particularly inspiring day and it was dark but I like this one even though it's not totally in focus.

2 days left.

23rd December

Well here's yesterdays photo,I'm sure I'll be snapping away over the next few days but I'm not sure I'll have time to post here until the weekend.

Someone was busy in my space creating a card for his brother.

21st and 22nd December

This post makes me up to date !

Above is the 21st,we had a huge snowstorm yesterday but I stayed indoors so my photo was of a bowl of kisses and below is today's when I did venture outside where this was still poking through the snow.

17th,18th,19th,20th December.

I'm on a major post catch up! I've been taking the pictures just no time to post so here's 4 in a row !
Above is the 17th,my bamboo,I'm useless with plants indoors so this is the nearest thing I have to something living and green and below is the 18th,my self portrait in the baubles !

Above is the 19th,my little snowman that my friend Susan made for me a few years ago,he didn't get placed on the tree this year.Below is the 20th,I was taking photo's of my scrap space,this is my shelf of bits and pieces.



I'll be back later wiith yesterday and todays.

15th and 16th December

2 more......



Above is yesterday's the 15th and below is today's,the 16th.Both Christmas related !!

13th and 14th Decemeber

Busy and tiring weekend and I only seemed to find time at night to take photo's,so both are tree related.



Above is the 13th,a stripey bauble on the tree and below is the 14th the whole tree taken last night,the only way I can get it all in is to lie on the floor !



It's a wet,miserable dark day here so who knows what I am going to photograph today.

11th and 12th December

Here's two more days.



Above is the 11th,still ice on everything and I couldn't resist taking more photo's.Below is the 12th,today after all the snow and ice,some warm freshly baked chocolate cookies !

Photo's

I should probably have posted them here since this is my photo blog but I posted some photo's of the snow and ice we had yesterday here.

I just took a lot more !

9th and 10th Decemeber

Yesterday may well have been my birthday but my photo is not birthday related at all.



I was playing domino's with my youngest and after he was making shapes to knock down except after a while he made this one and then declared I don't want anyone to touch it and knock it over................no easy task but it's still standing now.Below is the 10th,todays,after all that snow yesterday I couldn't resist a snow picture.I had the lens wide open and when I do this it catches the hood but I like the effect it gives so I left it.

7th and 8th December

All about the tree..................

Above is yesterday the 7th,we went to get our tree from the tree farm we've been going to for the past 4 years.Below is today,the 8th and of course decorating the tree was the order of the day,this is my favourite decoration,although since I reduced the image you can't see how sparkly he his.

5th and 6th December

The weekend comes along and I get behind with posting.


Above is the 5th,nothing really caught my eye today so I ended up taking a few pictures in the kitchen.Below is the 6th,I didn't get around to cutting back all my plants this fall and good job as it gave me something to photograph today !

3rd and 4th December

Here's the next 2 photo's.......


Above is the 3rd and we had enough light and time to nip outside yesterday to take the Christmas card photo......................I always send the school photo's with Christmas cards but those pictures never look like my children so I always feel I need to send out a real representation too ! Below is today's the 4th,I volunteer in the English library at the boys school and was there this morning.

1st and 2nd December

Here are my first 2 photo's for December.I have to say it's not been very inspiring so far ! The weather is dull and grey and dark and I have nothing remotely seasonal going on in my home at the moment.

So you will have to make do with images connected to my kitchen ! The 1st above is the pile of spacers left over from tiling and the 2nd below is my washing up liquid and candle,it was accidental but the punch of orange looks good in that room.

December 2008

It's December and that means another month for a photo day,lets see if I can be 31 for 31 again..............

October 30th and 31st

October's over and I managed it,31 photo's(well actually 237 photo's in my file )I didn't miss a day........I'm thinking I may do it again in December,we'll see !

So above is the 30th and I wanted to take something relevant to my 10th wedding anniversary and below is the 31st,couldn't use anything other than something Halloween related.

Until December...........

October 28th and 29th

Only 2 days left of the month.


Yesterday,the 28th, I was uninspired but did catch someone drawing new Mr Men characters,not the best photo as it was dark and below is one from this morning,the 29th.Again a little dark it was 7.30 but I like the morning light,I don't on the other hand like snow !

October 27th

We spent Friday putting up some Halloween decorations,so below is one of the lovely big spiders the boys bought,it may be styrofoam and flocking but it's still gross!

October 25th and 26th

Mmmm well it's been dark and rainy and miserable and not very inspiring for photo's but here's 2 more..........

Above is the 25th,our little ghost lights,around the bookcase and below is the 26th,Ol's latest obsession....marbles,don't I just love walking on these !

October 23rd and 24th.

I'm back with 2 more photo's and that makes me up to date.

Above is the 23rd,all the pumpkins on the front steps to the house and below is the view along my street early this morning,it was misty and I liked how it looked with the mist,although it only means something to me because I know what you can normally see !

October 21st and 22nd

Two more photo's of the day.......

It was miserable on the 21st and I didn't think I'd get anything but then I caught the boys having their computer time after homework.........this picture makes me laugh because Ad is on the computer but Ol is squeezed onto the chair next to him with his DS..talk about getting the maximum exposure before the times up !!

Below is the 22nd,black rats with tails........hate these black squirrels,this ones crafty,the boys call him white tip.............I cut that part off the photo because he was moving like crazy..........this squirrel has no fear and will leap,climb anything to get to food.

October 19th and 20th

So here's yesterdays and today's shots,only 11 days left !

Above is the 19th,we took our old sink on it's makeshift stand out for the last time and dumped it on the deck,the next morning this is what we saw ! Below is today's the 20th,yes Chippies back !! Actually this is a different one as it's living the other side of the garden and he's certainly not going to go hungry this winter as he's stuffing his cheeks all day long with all the dropped bird seed !

October 18th

Here's yesterday photo,only a few more days until I no longer have to see stuff like this in my kitchen !!

October 16th and 17th

Some days I am only taking one picture and other days I am finding it hard to pick just one because I've taken so many !
Above is the 16th,someones contemplating homework and below the tree in my front garden.

October 14th and 15th

Trying to keep on top of these photo's while Mum's here !!

Above is the 14th just one of our stacks of logs and I really don't want to think what that means ! Below is today's,a corner of the deck where the leaves have blown.

October 13th

Someone got to bring home the class mascot this weekend !!

October 11th and 12th
