Project 365 Week 14

Not a lot of excitement this week, we just took it easy before the craziness of the holidays sets in! Here are some pictures of us "just hanging out."

11/15 Addy hoarding the balls at open gym


11/16 Have you ever wondered what those HUGE Christmas trees at the Mall of America look like before they are decorated? Well, this is it!


11/17 Rick and Will- see any resemblance?


11/18 Will fell asleep playing in the high chair while we ate dinner


11/19 Addy eating raspberries- she loves to put them on each of her fingers and then eat them off one by one


11/20 Ellie playing in the tub


11/21 Family picture- this may go on our Christmas card

Project 365 Week 13

Well, we went from fall to winter in a matter of a couple of days this week, as you will see in my pictures. I didn't take very many pictures this week, but I took at least one each day!

11/8 Will playing with his blanket. He loves to pull it up over his face, freak out and kick like crazy for a few seconds and then pull it back off his face. Silly boy!


11/9 Ellie chasing Addy on their outdoor riding toys (Note how nice it looks outside)

11/10 Will playing in his high chair while I make dinner


11/11 Ellie by some of the Christmas decorations at the Mall of America (it's hard to believe it is that time already!)


11/12 Ellie reading a book at ECFE


11/13 And BAM! welcome to winter. This is one of the trees in our front yard


11/14 This is the Christmas tree we bought for the girls to put in their bedroom (Isn't it pretty? In a gaudy kitschy sort of way...)

Project 365 Week 12

It was a bit of a struggle some days, but I managed to take a picture every day this week!

11/1 The aftermath of Halloween


11/2 Election Day! The sign outside my polling place


11/3 Book Club Babies- these four babies were born within 3 months of one another- from left, going counterclockwise- Weston 6/10/10, William 7/9/10, Anna 8/29/10, and Torin 9/4/10

11/6 Sweet baby Will sleeping in his crib


11/7 Some cool clouds in the fall sky

Monthly Master!

Each month, at the end of the month, the owner of Ch{all}enge Masters draws a name from all of the entries (you get one entry per challenge completed) and that person receives the title of "Monthly Master" and receives the prize for the month. Well... this month I was chosen!!! The October sponsor was "The Crafter's Workshop" who makes lots of fun templates so I will receive this prize package:

Project 365 Week 11

I missed one day again this week. :( This time I truly forgot, I didn't think of taking a picture once on Tuesday! With a birthday party and Halloween I had plenty of options to pick from for the 7th picture though!
