Scavenger Hunt Sunday {7•1•12}

Sunset

We live in a valley surrounded by mountains, and we happen to live by the east mountains. So in order for me to get a picture of the sunset, I had to drive uphill a bit to get an unobstructed view. Luckily for me, there were some pretty pink clouds the day I chose to go up and capture the sunset.

Sweet

Originally I planned to take a picture of candy for this prompt. Then I found my four-year-old taking an unexpected nap in his room. You have to admit, he looks pretty sweet, doesn't he?

Hanging Around

In the summer we always have clothes hanging around on our back porch. We take advantage of the heat and line-dry our clothes. Here are the clothes that were on the line this morning.

Funny Face

It seems that my kids make funny faces all the time when I am trying to get a nice picture, but when I actually WANT them to make funny faces this is the best they can come up with.

Space

We just finished our first round of swimming lessons this summer. While at the pool I accidentally took this picture of an empty space in the pool. For some reason I kind of like this picture. It reminds me of an abstract painting.







ps. If you want to see more pictures of Ferris Wheels lights like the one I posted for last week's scavenger hunt, you can find them here.

  5. I too love the SPACE shot! beautiful water shot... makes me want to put on my bathing suit (which is pretty scary - ha!). Love the SWEET picture of your little one taking a nap. Unplanned naps are such a treat for mommies (unless it gives them too much energy & want to stay up later at night). Enjoyed following your 100 mile bike pics. Awesome accomplishment.

  7. I absolutely ADORE the pool shot. I have always loved the painterly look of pool water. Then that first shot- BEAUTIFUL! I think that is the one thing about living in the more open areas of the west- I do love the sprawling, unobstructed views with the amazing skies we get out here.

  12. I love your Hanging Around shot! :)

    I wish we have a backyard so we can line-dry our clothes under the sun, too. (BTW, that picture I posted was not of our laundry....just wanted to clarify). Much as I love the convenience of having a dryer, I prefer sun-dried clothes. :)
