Scavenger Hunt Sunday {12-18-11}

What is it?

I got my new bokeh kit in the mail today! I was so excited to be able to do some fun, custom bokeh. I had my camera pointed at the Christmas tree and was playing around with the settings on my camera and accidentally snapped this picture. Yep! One of the bokeh discs is a smiley face.

Children sleeping

This is my youngest boy, Eli. He is the kind of kid that runs nonstop all day until he just drops! He is almost 4 and refuses to take a nap, but some days it just catches up to him!


I admit that I have posted these last two pictures recently, but they are my favorite pictures of my two youngest kids sleeping. This picture was from the first weekend in December at my family Christmas party. My dad (HiFlight) put my baby girl to sleep and I got this sweet picture.

Joy

For the past few days I have been delivering little Christmas ornaments to my neighbors. It has been such a joy to see all the people that I love. It was also a joy to find this lovely glass block at my friend's house tonight, since I didn't have anything for this prompt yet!

 Window

I love the way that shops downtown decorate their windows for Christmas. It wasn't until after I took this picture that I realized that it kind of looks like a monster face in the window. Can you see it?

Half


Oh how I love oranges at Christmastime! Every year when I was little we always got an orange in our stocking and somehow I still crave them in December. This is the last orange left in the box that we bought a little less than a month ago. I cut in it half just for you and took a picture (right before I ate it!).

  1. We always got an orange in our stocking too. I love your Monster Christmas window shot. Yes, I can see it. Too funny.
    Your sleeping little ones are too precious. And while I love the one of your son on the couch, the one with grandpa is just so sweet.
