Day 39

Tuesday, February 8, 2011

Confession time:  I forgot to take a photo for today and when I looked I had this on my camera.  Apparently Riley James had my back.  And one of the prompts from my P365 chat group was for macro this week.  So I think this definitely works for that!  The more I see this the more I just love it.  I am not sure if he meant to take such a close picture of himself, but he has been exploring with my camera a lot lately!

Day 38

Monday, February 7, 2011

Today's POTD is of Zach playing Defense!  He really loves playing basketball!  He has gotten so much better from when he first started playing.  He even will tell the other kids "defense", it is really great to see such growth!

Day 37

Sunday, February 6, 2011

Today was a pretty good day for the most part.  We decided to take the boys to my parents house so we could go to Costco without them.  Then we decided to make a lunch date out of it and we went to Buffalo Wild Wings.  They were okay, Ron and I may be a little bias, but we still think I make the best wings!  Now I just have to make them again.  Then we picked up the boys and went home to watch the Superbowl.  Since we aren't huge sports fans, we really didn't care who one, we just like to watch a good game from time to time!  Nice day all in all.

Day 36

Saturday, February 5, 2011

Today I was able to get away from the house and the boys.  I think I need that from time to time!  I went to Karen D's house to scrapbook, but ended up making this box.  I started the card set last night and then wanted to make the box and she just happened to have some of the transparency sheets and let me have a few of them!  I think it turned out pretty darn cute, but need to get some 3x3 envelopes and of course add the CHOCOLATE in the center spot!

Day 35

Friday, February 4, 2011

Today I was able to work on Riley's Valentine.  I was so surprised when he chose a Valentine like this over store bought ones, but very happy too, since I love to be creative!  I wasn't able to figure out how to do it in Photo Shop Elements, but I finally did figure it out in Creative Memories Storybook Creator.  I think it turned out pretty cute, now to have them printed, and then mounted on card stock, and then add the sucker.

Day 34

Thursday, February 3, 2011

Today both boys are heading back to school!  Yeah!  Before we headed to school, I took a few (just a few) photos of Riley so I could create a Valentine that I saw on a blog!  Let's hope it turns out okay!  I just loved these photos of him, and he really was a trooper letting me take "just a few more"!

Day 33

Wednesday, February 2, 2011

Today was day 2 of no school due to COLD temperatures for both boys!  Riley was hanging out in the tent he made with a card table and Zach pretty much hung out in the basement watching movies and playing the x-box and the wii.  It was nice to have a couple of laid back days, but cabin fever is starting to set in!
