Photo A Day: May

Okay so here we go. I have decided to try out this Photo a Day challenge found a at http://www.fatmumslim.com.au. I have never tried a challenge like this before so it should be interesting to see how hard it is to remember to take the photo each day. I am in no way a professional photographer although I am an avid scrap booker so find photography to be very interesting. Maybe someday I will follow in the path of my good friend Alana and take a few course to better understand the light and composition of the photos I take but for now I am a point and shot kind of girl. I hope you enjoy what I come up with. Happy photo taking!

#1 PEACE

My version of peace is the sound of the kettle boiling in a quiet house right after the kids have gone to bed for the night.
I am at total peace knowing they are tucked safe and happy in bed and I am about to curl up and read or watch T.V. with my warm cup of tea.

#2 Skyline
As the sun went down today it just started to peek out from behind a beautiful cloudy sky after a very gray day. I hope this mean tomorrow there will be sun.

#3 Something I wore today
As hoped for today was a beautiful spring day with almost summer like weather. The sun shone and I pulled out my sunglasses and this gorgeous  floral scarf that I bought this week with a $25 off coupon making the scarf free with a couple shirt I bought. Nothing like new clothes on a Sunny day to make you feel great!

#4 Fun
These are the take home bags for my sons birthday party tomorrow. What is more fun than preparing for a birthday party.

















#5 Bird
Although we live in a new house in a subdivision with no mature trees we seem to have a lot of birds. There is a forest area close by so they must live there. I actually took two pictures today of birds the first was of my son's Angry Birds collection and the second was this little guy who was making all sorts of noise this morning.

#6 You
Okay so here I am. I think this may be the first photo I have taken of myself since I gave up my hat. My hair finally growing out to the point I feel comfortable going without. SO HI!

Alana is the person who inspired me to start this challenge. She is an amazing mother, teacher and friend.
