Going Back in Time
This week we all went to visit the North American Museum of Ancient Life, which we just call the dinosaur museum. It wasn't until later that I realized that most of my pics from that day would work for this promt! They have tons of interesting exhibits and fossils. I loved this photo of Jonah looking at a diorama of what the earth might have looked like while the dinosaurs were alive.
Something Just for Me
After I thought about it for a while, I realized that my "something" that is just for me is photography. I love to take pictures, especially of my three beautiful children. I am not a professional and have never taken photography classes, but I love that my photography has improved over the years and I keep learning!
Best Part of my Day
My favorite part of the day is in the evening when things start to wind down. I love my kids and our fun, busy days together, but I LOVE it when I put the kids in bed and get to spend time alone with Honey Daddy. I took this picture of sunset on my iPhone on one of those rare occasions that I was going out alone with my Honey.
Night and Day
Night at home. Day on the Great Salt Lake. I love photographing the moon! I just wish I had a longer zoom lens so I could get an even better picture! I had to wait for some high, thin clouds to clear out before I could get a good shot of the full moon last night.
The second picture is from our day trip to Antelope Island to see the Great Salt Lake. I almost regretting lugging that umbrella all the way down to the shore, but I think the picture is worth it!
Look Up
While visiting Antelope Island, they had some binoculars at Bison point that you could use to view the bison on the plain below. I caught this picture of Eli using the binoculars to look up! Not only will he not find any buffalo that way, the really funny thing is that he is looking in the wrong end!
Love, love the one with the rainbow umbrella!!
ReplyDeleteThe umbrella was DEFINITELY worth toting! I love how the colors tie together. The blue of the sky and the pink of your daughter's shirt match the tones in the umbrella perfectly!
