30 Day Photo Challenge: Gratitude - Day 23

Today is "in your closet" and so here is a very non-exciting image of my closet from the doorway. If I had more time today, I could have maybe tried something a little more exciting but at the end of the day it's still an image of the inside of a closet. I will say thought, that since this is a gratitude challenge, I will say that I'm very grateful for the storage space.

30 Day Photo Challenge: Gratitude - Day 22

Today is clothing. I love my boys (as does my wallet!!), but seeing all the beautiful dresses that are out in stores this time of year does make me a little sad that I don't have a daughter to dress up. The same thing happens to me around Easter! Thankfully, my boys don't mind dressing up for special occasions and so I will dress them in sweater vests and button down shirts. Sometimes we even go the shirt and tie route, just like Daddy, though I am a sucker for the sweater vest!

I am posting this picture of my boys dressed up for their Thanksgiving Day celebrations at school. David read & made Stone Soup in his class and Shaun had a Harvest Party where he shared a fruit salad with his classmates. Evan, just wanted to stand with his big brothers so I put him in a sweater too! I love that they humor me and I'll milk it for all it's worth until they no longer let me!

30 Day Photo Challenge: Gratitude - Day 21

Kind of a weird one, but Day 21 is where you sleep. Not exactly an exciting image, but my beautiful king size bed is definitely something to be grateful to have! I love it. I debated making the bed up and putting on the fancy pillows that go with the bed spread set but then it wouldn't be "real". This is what "where I sleep" looks like every day. Ha!

30 Day Photo Challenge: Gratitude - Day 20

Day 20 is "seasonal" and today couldn't have been a more perfect late Fall day! With the "unseasonably" mild temperatures for this time of year, it's almost hard to believe that Winter is just around the corner. And what better way to spend it, than a bike ride around the neighborhood with one of your best friends!

30 Day Photo Challenge: Gratitude - Day 19

Day 19 is Best Friend and as fate would have it I got to see my best friend today as we celebrated her son's third birthday! She is a wonderful person and I am lucky to have her as a friend!

30 Day Photo Challenge: Gratitude - Day 18

Day 18 and we've already done something old, so today it's something new, and so I photographed the new generator! It's not a fancy image but it is new and will be something we're grateful for having next time we lose power, which we've been told happens quite often in this neighborhood! We're just waiting for the plumber to come back and hook it up to the gas line and then we'll be good to go!

30 Day Photo Challenge: Gratitude - Day 17

Today is day 17, hard to believe were more than 1/2 way through the month and a week from today is Thanksgiving! Day 17 is to photograph "memories". I wasn't sure how to interpret this one, I mean the reason I always carrying my camera every where I go is for the sole purpose of capturing memories. Each photograph I take is a memory, so that is when I got the idea to photograph my scrapbooks. Each scrapbook is filled with memories that I will cherish forever!
