Day 31

So far today has been pretty good, I worked until three then came home and cleaned the house, I really only did dishes Keith did the rest, Today after work I figured because Ethan was awake and puppy needed washed I would toss him in the washer, I tired to put him in without Ethan seeing me and I did, But Ethan loves to watch the washer run so while it was running he ran out and looked in and saw puppy, He came running to me crying then ran back to the washer and said "Mine Mine Hi Puppy Mine"  Then he stood and yelled DAD DAD DAD finally when Keith went to see what he wanted, he pointed to the washer and said MINE!! So my picture for today is of Ethan standing in front of the washer crying waiting for puppy to get done, He would not let me put him in the dryer because he wanted him back. Luckily he came out pretty dry and it was not a problem not drying puppy.

Day 30

Not much going on today, I pretty much sat at home all day, I left long enough to take Ethan to the doctors but I did not want to take a picture of his doctrs office. I took a picture of the crab apples (Keith said they are not crab apples but he has no idea what kind they are)  on the tree outside our door, I did not notice them until yesterday, I took this picture while sitting in the kitchen.

Day 29

I know that I am supposed to take the picture myself but I forgot my camera in the diaper bag, So I am going to use one that my sister took,

At church we do not have Bible school we have Summer Fun it is like Bible school but instead of being one week long it is every Sunday all summer, They had themes for each Sunday. They also gave the kids memory verses Ephesians 6:10-18 and they had a preschool challenge for William's class because they are only three and they had the Ultimate challenge for the older kids that the three year olds could try too, William was one of 3, three year olds who learned the whole thing completing the ultimate challenge, Today was the Summers End Celebration and they brought all the kids who learned the ultimate challenge out and had them say it for the whole church. So my picture today is of William saying his verses.

     I have to add that I am so proud of William for remembering the verses, He has so many things going on that he has to remember like Tye Kwon Doe he is doing weapons class and has to memorize his form plus his Tye Kwon Doe teacher is teaching him Korean, So he has to remeber that as well as his rules for class and home, I think he did GREAT and could not be more proud of the little guy!

Day 28

These are the neighbor girls, Madison and Tori, I tired to get a picture of Keith, and I holding hands but I did not like the way it turned out, While I was sitting on the couch trying to think of what I was going to take a picture of I heard the girls outside cheering and having a water fight with their grandma, I tried to get some pictures of them without them knowing but they saw me. Their grandma asked me if I had a hose to spray them with I said No but I did have a bucket I could fill and toss on them, So they sat and begged me to toss water on them, That is the picture on the left, I was standing looking out my window and they sat down and begged me to toss cold water on them, Well after a few more minutes of them asking, me to toss water on them their grandma said she did not care so I did, Right after I asked if they would do some more flips for me so I could take some pictures. The top is Madison the bottom is Tori. I can remember my sister and I doing the same thing standing outside cheering my sister trying to teach me how to do a cartwheel I never did learn how to do one, We always had so much fun and when I heard these two outside cheering it brought back so many memories.

Day 27

I really like going with the theme each day but I do not have a back door to go with the theme, The view out your backdoor, So I was going to go with a different picture until Keith said that I could take a picture out the kitchen door, It goes out onto our deck so there, really is not much to see but it goes with the theme the best I can. So here is the view out what we call our backdoor.

Day 26

Tonight my post is going to be late. Ethan and I are going to a football game tonight. It is Dover's first home game and my dad has season tickets to go and I might not get to go to any other ones so I figured why not go to the first one, I can not wait to see how the band is this year, I miss being in the band at times. I will post the picture as soon as I get home.

Ok well I went to the game tonight but I forgot my camera at home. I tried to get a picture of William jumping but none turned out on the cell phone, So I figured I would take a picture of my wind chime that is hanging in the living room. I got it while on my Disney Cruse a few years ago and because it was from Bahamas, and it is glass I do not want it to hang outside for the fear it will get broke and cannot be replaced, I think it is cute and I am glad I have it, Ethan loves to sit under it and watch the air make it move.

Day 25

I went with the theme again today, Alphabet. I figured I would use the letter T for Toy Box, Here is a picture of Ethan's toy box that he got for Christmas. He loves to sit in it while he is playing. I guess the toys are more fun when you're sitting in the toy box.

I had to add two pictures, I could not pick what one I wanted to use. The first one is of his toy box where you can see his name carved into it the second is of his  toys in the toy box.

He has so many toys they do not all fit we have a basket with toys in it too.

Day 24

Ok I know my post for today is going to be late, I work until 3 then I am going home and getting ready to go to the Cleveland Indians game with my Dad, Uncle Bryan, and Sister, tonight, I might not be home until later and because I got up early I will probably go home and go right to bed, So I will add my picture tomorrow if I do not do it today.

I wanted to go with the theme of lights today, So while I was at the game I was going to take a picture of the lights but then I saw the Indians sign in lights and I HAD to take a picture and use it for my photo today. But as I was looking through my pictures I saw the one of all four of us together so I am going to use both, I made them into a collage,

Day 23

Well today the theme was piles of laundry, I did not take a picture of our laundry before I started to wash it so I figured I would take a picture of some of the clean laundry sitting by the washer. I try to do my laundry once a week but I have been busy and let it go for a little while. So my washer was running a lot today. Actually it was running in this picture I am on my last load now though, I will be glad when it is all washed dried and put away.

Day 22

So it is Sunday and I do not do much of anything on Sundays, I get up go to church then go eat lunch with my family, After that I come to work until 11. I forgot to take a picture before I left for work, As I have said before there is not much to take a picture of here at work. My camera died while I was at work so I had to use my phone, The only thing I thought of to take a photo of was the Sunday Comics. I know it is not very exciting but at least it is something.

Day 21

 Ok so today was very uneventful, I sat at home and did nothing, Now it is raining and Ethan is a crabby boy so I do not feel like going any where with him acting the way he is, So I get to stay at home all day doing nothing.

Because I am at home I really was stuck on what I wanted to use as my photo for today, Then it hit me while I was cooking dinner, I could take a photo of all my Willow Tree Statues. I only have four but I love every single one of them. There are a few more I would love to have but until then here are the four I do have,

Day 20

I did not go with the theme today because Ethan does not play dress up yet, So I figured I would take a picture of something else, I figured I would take a picture of the tree that planted itself in one of my flower pots on the deck, I just got done moving it to its own pot a few days ago. We call it Ethan's tree, We hope that one day we can plant it at a house of our own and he can watch  it grow, I hope it makes it I really want him to have this tree for a long time,

Day 19

          So today I went with the theme, Favorite Piece of Jewelry. I actually have two favorite pieces of jewelry. I did not want to pick one or the other so I figured I would use both.

         My favorite pieces of jewelry are my wedding and engagement ring and my MOM necklace. I love being a Mommy and Wife so I love the two pieces of jewelry that symbolize that,
          
         I took my guest book pen and put my rings and necklace on it so I would have something pretty behind them this is what I got

Day 18

The birthday boy William

Today is my oldest nephews birthday, He is four. Sometimes he acts like he is a lot older, You should hear some of the stories he tells. I love this little guy to death.

Day 17

Wow it is day 17 already! I am shocked that I have not missed one day, I am doing pretty good with this challenge, I noticed that I am always looking around to see what is around me to see if there is any thing I want to snap a picture of, I do not just rush around, I am really enjoying this challenge.

I wanted to get Ethan a piggy bank because he did not have one. So I went to the store and all they had was plain white piggy banks, But they had one on display that was so cute, I wanted to make one for Ethan so I got the stuff to do it. Well last night I had some extra time so I went ahead and made Ethan's piggy bank. I took a before picture last night and a picture when I was half done but the picture of it all done I just now took. I made a collage again so I could use all three pictures. Sorry that I somewhat cheated and used two old pictures but they are not weeks or months old just one day old. I think that it looks good, It actually looks so close to the one on display at the store.

Day 16

    Me and Kim

Even though I was not home much today I did not have a very eventful day, Keith, Ethan and myself went out to lunch with his Dad and Step Mom, I was going to take my camera with me but forgot, While we were with them we saw a HUGE grasshopper, It would of been a perfect picture for today and would of went with the theme, Well after that I went to the hair salon with my best friend and we got our hair fixed, I dyed mine dark brown a few months ago and I was tired of it and wanted my natural color back, she needed her perm fixed. So I figured that would be my picture for the day. I really wanted a picture of us with the rollers and dye in our hair but I forgot all about it until we were done, So I had Matt take the picture for us as we were leaving,

Day 15

Ethan

I know that we are only supposed to add one picture each day but today I have the two. I spent a week working with my Aunt and Sister to make four pirate costumes for church, We made everything even the bandanas. So I had to put a picture of all four boys together and then one of Ethan with his mustache on. I think they all make very cute pirates.

William, Octavius, Ethan, and Xavier.

Day 14

William's 4th and Octavius' 2nd Birthday Party!

Well today was a fun day, I did not get much sleep but other than that everything went great, My two wonderful nephews had their birthday party today, The oldest of the two is four and the youngest is two, Their birthdays are a week apart so they just had one party, I did not know what picture to post, So I made a collage. The boys each got to cut their side of the cake with a sword, I think that was William's favorite part. Over all they had a great party and you could tell they had fun!

Day 13

 Well today I took a picture of my wonderful husband, He was talking on the phone with his dad, I was walking out the door to come to work, and I remembered that I did not take my photo for the day, I knew there would not be anything here at work to take a photo of so I grabbed my camera and took Keith's picture. The picture was a little fuzzy but I was in a rush and had to use what I got,

Day 12

Well I have already taken a picture of our DVDs so I did not want a picture of the same thing, So I had to come up with different pictures while staying with the theme. So I just took a picture of our DVD rack from a different angle. We have over 250 dvds in this rack and that is not even all them.

I would say we have around 150 more at Keith's moms house, We would watch a movie every other day when I went over to his house while we were dating, I loved the time we spent together just watching movies, We do not go to the movies much we just wait for them to come out on DVD rent them then buy it if we like the movie. What else can I say we love movies!

Day 11

Well today is my nephews 2nd birthday so I figured I would go off theme and take a picture of the birthday boy. So this is Octavius,  He is the middle child he has an older brother who will be four in a week and a younger brother who is a little over three months, He is so goofy but I love him to death. This is his birthday smile!

Day 10

I am going to post my picture early, I am going to be busy pretty much all day again tomorrow and if I do not post early I will have to post late and I do not want that. Today the theme is water, I was not sure if I wanted to go with it or not, but I like going with the theme. Sometimes I do others I do not. I thought about a few ways to get a water photo and was not sure what to do so I took some of Ethan's blocks and spelled out water, sat them in my bathroom by a picture of Ethan in a bubble bath and a rubber duck, I think it turned out cute

Day 9

Today I am posting late, I had my picture all day but I just did not have time to post it. I went to help my Aunt make pirate outfits for my three nephews and Ethan for church on Sunday. While I was there Aurora (my dog who lives with my Aunt) got hit by a car, The person did not even stop to see if the dog was ok. I was so upset just thinking she was dead. But she was not, She seems ok, She is bleeding in a few spots her lip looks pretty bad but she was running, jumping and playing before I left, I think she will feel it tomorrow. Any way about my picture I did not have anything retro to take pictures of, I thought of getting a picture of the VHS tapes at my Dads house but I changed my mind and figured I would not go with the theme today. So my picture is of Ethan playing with his cars. He was even doing the vroom sound it was so cute, He has no pants on because it is hot in my apartment, I love this picture of him. He looks like he is having fun!

Day 8

So I did not get a picture of what I wanted to for today, I wanted to go with the theme, I was going to take a picture of some cactus at my Grandmas house, When it is blooming it is the most beautiful thing ever, but today it was not blooming. So I was lost I had no idea what else to take a picture of. I am at work right now and I honestly do not see anything beautiful here, Well while I was trying to think of what I wanted to take a picture of I had a great idea. In our breakfast room we have a Christmas tree up, (It has been up for two years now) I think that it is one of the most beautiful Christmas trees I have ever seen so while thinking and reading the Sunday Comics I thought I would go take a picture of the tree. I guess that today it is the most beautiful thing I have seen and I know that it is the most beautiful thing here at work.

Extra Picture

Goodyear Blimp

I know you're only supposed to post one picture a day but as my Dad and I were driving to Canton  we saw the Goodyear Blimp flying around, It was out because of the Pro Football Hall Of Fame, I wanted to take a picture of it and this is what I got. I LOVE how it is just the blimp and a cloud I did not crop it at all. I did not want to post this as my Day 7 photo because I wanted to post the picture of the seven kids (Day 7, Seven kids thought it was cool)  I wanted to share this picture because I thought it was pretty.

Day 7

In age order Ravynn 8(holding cat) Regan 5 (laying on floor) William 4 (in orange shirt by Regan) Maya 3 (holding the baby) Octavius 2 (only boy standing) Ethan 1 1/2 (sitting on Regan) Xavier 3 1/2 months, Rascal

Today the theme is Animals, I went to my sisters to get pictures of all seven kids together and because I do not have any pets I figured I would have a picture of all seven kids holding one of my sisters pets,  Getting this picture was hard, Rascal did not want them to hold her and by this time all the kids were done getting pictures, I got 3 pictures and even though Regan is close to not having a full face this was the best one I could get!

Day 6

I wanted to go with the theme of significant other today but I did not know what the theme was until Keith was already at work.and I will not see him until tomorrow afternoon. So I figured I would take a picture of a picture, This picture was taken before Ethan was born, We have it hanging in his room. I love this picture. To bad I didn't get a new picture of Keith and I but oh well this works.

Day 5

I had no idea what I was going to take a picture of today, I don't feel well and all I have done today was lay on the couch and watch tv or nap. Well I figured I would go with the theme again. So I went out to my deck and was trying to get one good picture but I could not. So I went down to check my mail and when I got to the last step I looked out the window and saw this tree, I thought it looked pretty with the sun light all around it so I got the mail and my picture all at once. Today is a beautiful day to bad I don't feel well and don't want to be outside to enjoy it. At least I have a picture to look at.

Day 4

I had no idea what to take a picture of today, I know I can always take pictures of Ethan but I don't want all my pictures to be of Ethan. And because it is raining I couldn't get a picture outside so I took one of our DVD rack. It is full and that isn't even all of them. On top we have our stuff from Keiths sister, She went to Japan while in the Marines and this is what she brought back. Also on top I have my two orchids that I got for mothers day this year.

Day 3

Ok so today I somewhat went with the theme of colors. I have two of these chairs that I just painted the other day, When I went outside to our deck to take this picture Ethan ran out and got in the chair, So I figured I would take the picture of him in his favorite chair.

Here is the picture I was going to take before Ethan got in the cahir, My Hibiscus tree is finally blooming!

Day 2

Ok so I figured my picture today would be of Ethan sleeping after a long day of swimming, He was so sleepy.

Day 1

Ok I figured because I am at work I might as well make my first picture of the Knights Inn logo, I work at the front desk at Knights Inn, I work 3 shifts each week a total of two days, I work two eight hour shift on Fridays then one eight hour shift on Sunday, My job is easy but sometimes I hate it!

New At This

So I have never had a blog before but I think this sounds fun, I have a son so I might not get to add a photo each day but I will take one each day and I will just post it later, Seeing how I am at work I have no idea what to use for my first photo. I guess I will think of something!
