Sunday Stills - the Color Orange

The Sunday Stills challenge this time is "the Color Orange"

..this wood flower was painted a few years ago

by Daughter and is used to accessorize her brightly

painted room -

The color orange is one of our school colors!

This would be a "letter" which when I was young

was used for letter jackets and those

that were talented in sports would have

all their medals attached -- nowdays

letter jackets are not so "in" (at least

I don't see very many) and you now

receive "a letter" for other achievements

not just sports.

I take these letters and their pins and

display them in a nicely decorated shadow box.

 

And orange the color of daughter's tennis shoes

Black and White Wednesday

This picture was taken of myself, our grandma and my youngest sister

the summer before grandma passed away.

What a picture -- girls on the bench just resting and relaxing

and I'm sure talking!  Sis would say "Hello Beautiful" to grandma!

Grandma's favorite birds were the cardinals!

Sunday Stills - Sunrises and Sunsets

September 11, 2009 Sunset

I had to go to the archives for this weeks' Sunday Stills -

this past week has been nothing but rain and clouds

so didn't enjoy one sunrise nor sunset this week!

See what others found this week at Sunday Stills.

Sunday noonish headed home from buying groceries - the sun peaked...

thought I might get a noonshine -- Nope!  Drove the rest of the way

in the rain....

Black and White Wednesday!

Daddy's Little Blessing!

Thanks to The Long Road to China for doing

this challenge.  

Macro Monday - March 8, 2010

We still had winter on Friday -- Saturday we had spring rains falling and Sunday we had lovely sunshine with lots of melting going on.

The gutter on the house needs to be fixed - our large car wash bucket was in the yard - I put it under the drip and I think it filled up in five minutes - it made for some interesting "dripping" pictures.

Community Photo Challenge - Tree

This is my first time participating in the Community

Photo Challenge - this picture was

taken last fall when I was driving on

my way home from work and just

happened to have this beautiful

photo opportunity - a case of

being in the right place at the right time!
