2013 365 Challenge Week 10

Day 64 - March 5, 2013 - "2 P.M."
Enjoying a decaf coffee out of my Starbucks mug that a coworker brought back for me from Pike Peer in Seattle, the original Starbucks!  Thanks Sukhy!

Day 65 - March 6, 2013 - "Wash-n-Dry"
This is pretty self explanatory.  Haha.

Day 66 - March 7, 2013 - "Collection"
This here my friends is my ever growing camera collection.  The two camera's on the left are film cameras.  It's so nice to shoot film again!  

Day 67 - March 8, 2013 - 'Shoot From a Chair"
This is from one of our chairs in our living room.  Riveting, I know!  ;)

Day 68 - March 9, 2013 - "People Watching"
This shot was taken from the 4th floor of Portage Place Mall.  I like to stand up there and people watch while I wait for my friends to meet me to go to the gym.  

Day 69 - March 10, 2013 - "Still Life"
This one was a little tough because when I think of the paintings of fruits and vegetables when I was taking art courses.  I didn't want to do that so instead I took this shot.  I've had these three bottles for along time.  They're on our windowsill in our kitchen and I just love them.

Day 70 - March 11, 2013 - "Your Alarm Clock"
My Dad bought this alarm clock for me a few years ago when my family was here for Christmas.  We went boxing day shopping and these babies were on sale at Radio Shack!  This one has served me well but I'm in the market for a smaller one currently.  This may  be handed down to Kaelynne to play her little CD's soon.


2013 365 Challenge Week 9

It's been a whirlwind these past few weeks.  Where does the time go?  Seriously!  Well there was a time change just a few weeks ago so that's where some of the time went.  So much has gone on since my last post.  My husband and I enrolled our daughter in Nursery School and she starts this Fall...again, where is the time going?  It's so hard to believe she will be three this year.  My Mum was here for a visit from Saskatchewan.  It's always hard to have her leave.  I keep trying to convince her to retire and move to Winnipeg...she isn't really into that idea much though.  LOL!  I baked a rainbow cake, which you will see in Week 12's post.  My cousin Kristy baked it for her daughters birthday and then I decided that I wanted to try this rainbow cake out myself because it looks SO good.  My friends Elaine and Jen had a birthday party last weekend and I decided I would make that for them!  If you're interested in checking it out, do so here at http://www.whisk-kid.com/2009/08/say-it-with-cake.html  
I'm now over 5 1/2 months pregnant as well, which means 3 1/2 more to go!  Yet again, where the heck is the time going??  Okay enough with the chit chat, on with the photos!  Right after this I will be posting Week 10 as well.  :)

Day 57 - February 26, 2013 - "Loud"
Kaelynne and I were waiting in the car for Tyler and Scream & Shout came on the radio.  It's Kaelynne and Tyler's jam.  She was singing it at the top of her lungs.  

Day 58 - February 27, 2013 - "A Stranger"
I wasn't comfortable taking pictures of strangers to then later post on my blog so I decided to take a shot of the backs of their heads instead.  This is my bus ride home from work.  I'm happy with the way this turned out actually.  I was stressing about this shot!

Day 59 - February 28, 2013 - "What You're Wearing Today"
I set up my tripod for this one and shot it in my studio.  It's hard to take a picture when you can't see through the lens!  Pants, Thyme Maternity.  Shirt, H&M Mama maternity line.  Scarf, Le Chateau.  So fashionable!  LOL.

Day 60 - March 1, 2013 - "Peace"
Luckily I still had my sister in law's Christmas card around...it's since been sent just so you know!  I was waiting on some pictures to be printed and then I asked her to pick me up some maternity clothes from H&M so I waited for them to be shipped so I could send her a cheque.  Procrastination much?   

Day 61 - March 2, 2013 - "A Natural Frame"
My original plan for this shot was to go for a walk in a park to get a cool tree frame of something but then it got really bloody cold again so that was out of the question.  Remember, winter and I do not get along...at all.  Instead I went upstairs to grab something from our bedroom and saw Sugar laying in the sunlight cleaning his paw.  I ran and grabbed my camera and captured this nice warm, sunny inside shot!

Day 62 - March 3, 2013 - "Town"
Again, I was thinking about driving out to a little town just outside of Winnipeg to get this shot but the weather was too cold.  I really do live in the wrong country!  Why go to a town when you can make a nice, warm, cozy one indoors?  :)  Kaelynne calls these "my people".  "Mommy, where's my people?"  Hehe. 

Day 63 - March 4, 2013 - "Comfy"
Sugar was all curled up on the couch and I thought, aww, he looks so comfy...hey wait a minute!  I'm not much of a cat person but he came with  my husband so I've learned to tolerate him.  I do have to admit, he's fun to photograph and he's very cute.
