Scavenger Hunt Sunday

Yet again I am behind. This time it is not teething, but a slight ear infection which makes it impossible for M to sleep without Tylenol. We didn't get to the pedi until yesterday so no sleep from Friday night on. But yes, I got everything edited and uploaded! So here we go...

1. Wish/Dream

This is from the archives, but only about two weeks ago. I still wonder what it is he is dreaming about when he smiles in his sleep.

2. Clean

Bath time is lots of fun for us! We have toys and a water fall from the shower.

3. Currency

This is M's Pioneer Fund, so that when he grows up he can either Pioneer or if he so chooses goes to trade school.

4. Pair

Booties somebody gave us for M that I have never used since I like to see M's feet cause they are so cute! It is a good thing there are a lot of babies being born soon!

5. Square

I had a "Square" picture, but somehow it came out all wrong on the comp. So I had to re-shoot which I am glad of since I love this one much more!

You Capture - Signs

This is way late, just because my son has been teething and it's not been easy to find the time to process and post these! They were taken by last Monday. So sad, but here they are anyways.


This was at the Oregon State Fair. I was taking the Airtram to get my landscape picture when I saw this sign! I laughed and got this picture.


I pass this sign all the time, but it totally surprised me when I was coming up on it and I almost didn't get this picture!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday!

It is Sunday again! Yay!

Time for another scavenger hunt, and here it goes!

#1 Red

This is different from my POTW red photo. My mother-in-law loves cinnamon Jolly Ranchers and I had some time while she was getting something and my M was sleeping!

#2 Home-space

My M is my home, my life and my love. This is the first time he pulled himself up.

#3 Fence

This fence once stood straight. Then my dogs figured out they could jump over it and have bent it down and no amount of propping makes it work to keep the dogs in!

#4 Rock

This is my wedding ring. It is an amethyst, so it is soft and scratches easily. I love it though and wouldn't trade those scratches for anything!

#5 Sharp

My Hubby is currently hunting for elk, but he got a deer Friday night and my father-in-law cut it and stored it tonight. This is his hunting knife.

Shoot -N- Tell: Hearts In The Clouds

I kept seeing Ashley at Ramblings and Photos (See her button to the right ---> ) talking about one item from the August Photo Hunt, finding hearts in the clouds, so I started to look for them. I never saw any, partially because we hardly had clouds the weather was so great! Then driving home one evening after running errands, I saw the perfect heart in the sky!

Then my batteries died.

Ugg, bummed! I tried to get it, but my hubby kept driving as M was asleep and we have a rule to not wake a sleeping baby if we can help it.

Then I saw this...



Even better and bigger and lots more defined! I am stoked!

I am linking this up to Natalie's new challenge Shoot -N- Tell. For more, head to her blog:

You Capture: Mornings

As a mom of an almost 7 month old I treasure sleep! My son thinks midnight is a great bedtime and anywhere from 7:30 to 8:30 is a great wake-up time. Once we are up we spend the morning eating and waking all the way up. Takes forever to do all this. But this morning my hubby woke me up to fill him in on the paperwork for the sale of our Exploder and on my way by the bedroom window I saw this...



What a beautiful sight first thing in the morning!
