Sunday Sunday 2-27
I failed!! I failed my 365 days of photos = (
somehow I forgot to take a picture last Sunday!!?? really?!
I was sick on Sunday… my worst day with my cold… but still!!
Oh Well!! I guess it will be my 364 day project now =)
I can still get an A if I only have minus 1 … right?!
This Week Ashley’s Scavenger Hunt Items were:
Everyday, Life, Blurred, Furry and Capture the Sky
Sunday 51/365
Failed. = (
Monday 52/365 Capture the Sky
Monday my sister and I toodled? tootled? around in Tacoma
mostly browsing in their limited antique shops…
We were a little disappointed…
our wee Capital City has more shops than Tacoma…
Alas… it was still a fun a sister adventure day!! =)
even if she didn’t cooperate
when I tried to take her picture!! ha ha
Tuesday 53/365 Furry
Nana…
eating moist kitty food for Abby’s Science Experiment!
Lucky kitty!
Wednesday 54/365 Life
Plant Life was starting to grow before all this snow hit Washington! =)
(I know I shared this flower earlier in the week… this is another shot of it!!)
I think it looks a little like a Venus Fly Trap in this picture!! =)
Snow days are great days for baking too..
AND it is a great Life shot too… right??
Brownies are an important part of Life!!
moving on…
Thursday 55/365 Blurred
Merlin goes crazy in the Snow! He LOVES it!!
but he gets cold fast… the poor little guy…
his soft fur collects the fluffy cold snow fast!!
In this pic he is trying to shake 3 minutes of fun off of his fur!! =)
Here Merlin stopped to do the Pointer Dog thing at a squirrel??
He really thinks he is a hound of some kind!!
Poor guy… the snow is up to his belly!! =)
makes for some cold peeing!!
(sorry!!) Just Real Life!
moving on again…
Friday 56/365
Friday at 12:30 pm we popped an egg into vinegar
we couldn’t resist after seeing it on Jessica’s blog last week!
They called it the Naked Egg Project… I think?!
The vinegar eats away the hard calcium shell…
leaving behind a soft semi-transparent covering!
Abby already has a science fair project going with the cat
but we figured it would be a great home school Science thing for Sammy
and a back up Science Fair project for her if we need it…
the cat project is not exactly working??!!
anyway… what it boils down to ….is that mommy likes the darn egg!
I want to take cool light pictures with it like Jessica did!! =)
Saturday 57/365 Everyday
Everyday I try to at least pick up my little Bible companion book!
I hope to read through the New Testament again this year…
I am not off to a good start though!! *sigh*
This Fabulous little book helps me get in a little bible time each day…
I love my little Daily Strength for Daily Needs book
published in 1884!!
it is a TREASURE !!
I read it year after year…
the words keep speaking to my heart and mind…
though it is a little difficult to read in old style English… =)
I can not explain it… it is an amazing little book of Bible verses and
encouraging Quotes written by Christians before 1884 … =)
I have another copy published in 1992 (over a 100 years later!!)
But I have a thing for old books…
My old copy was gifted to a lady named Fanny on Christmas of 1884!!
Before I close I just want to say for the record…
it is Still Snowing In Washington!! rare I tell ya!!
We just don’t get snow like this very often!
It is supposed to be raining today… and soccer starts on Tuesday!!
I wonder if the hubby Coach will cancel the first practice if we still have snow!
ha ha!!
Looking forward to seeing all your photos as always!! =)
Blessings~
Jenn

looks like a fun week, even if you missed one day of photos. hope the science experiments go well… and a backup plan is always a good thing. sorry you are having so much snow, but at least you can take snow pictures
February 27th, 2011 saat: 1:13 pm
Great week of photos! No worries about missing one day. If you only miss one day in the whole year, you’re doing pretty well. At least that’s my 2 cents. 🙂
February 27th, 2011 saat: 2:03 pm
Lol. I would feel the SAME way about missing a day. It would get under my skin 🙂
But your other pictures are great! I totally think that makes up for it!
February 27th, 2011 saat: 2:35 pm
I love the bright flower against the snow. Such a great shot!
February 27th, 2011 saat: 4:28 pm
Your blurred shot is sooo sweet 🙂 very cute… I love dogs… especially the big and very furry once 🙂
and I’ve got a book that is with me old the time…
It’s a small colletion of Victor Hugo’s poems… I know what you mean by saying that the words keep speaking to the heart and the mind…
hugs

You always have such a busy week. I love your sky capture.
February 27th, 2011 saat: 6:42 pm
Cool blurred shot!! 🙂
February 27th, 2011 saat: 6:59 pm
What great shots.. It looks so cold there… I love the shot of the flower in the snow.. Very cool…
Hugs, Linda

Couldn’t agree with you more, brownies are most definately an important part of everyday life! Your shot of the flower emerging from the snow is so original and different I just love this capture!
February 27th, 2011 saat: 10:13 pm
These are all great, but I really love your sky shot!
February 27th, 2011 saat: 10:28 pm
Lovely shots – Merlin is gorgeous, and such a lovely blue colour in your sky shot. Never mind about missing one day out of 365, take two another day instead! :O)
February 28th, 2011 saat: 12:56 am
All that snow seems like a giant fluffy pillow for Merlin ;-P
February 28th, 2011 saat: 4:14 am
Fun selection of photos, Jenn. Love that life capture!
February 28th, 2011 saat: 5:58 am
Oh, that book looks wonderful!
February 28th, 2011 saat: 6:02 am
Wonderful photos. Love your blurred photo. They are all great. Thanks for linking up.
February 28th, 2011 saat: 7:31 am
Love the life photo! And how are those Trader Joe’s brownies. And that prayer book is a treasure!
February 28th, 2011 saat: 7:33 am
Love the blurred phot of your dog. He looks like a cutie!!! Great photo for capture the sky.
Thanks for stopping by!! Have a great week!!!

I missed a few days in Feb aswell Jenn. I love the idea with that egg – what a cool experiment to try out. Merlin looks lovely in amongst all that snow.
February 28th, 2011 saat: 8:35 am
Eh, 365 projects are overrated. 😉 I already gave up on mine.
Flowers? Already? I am so jealous!
That vinegar trick is pretty cool with a chicken bone too, it turns out all floppy and jiggly.
February 28th, 2011 saat: 9:04 am
i’m not doing well with my picture-taking this year. boo! missing a day here or there is not bad. 😉 what pretty, determined flower. crazy to imagine freezing temps when we are already in the 80’s. *sigh*
February 28th, 2011 saat: 2:23 pm
The snow has been fun hasn’t it…Dixie loves it too. It’s hilarious to watch her in it!
You know the bible companion book that I read is My utmost for his Highest! Old old too. But so good. I never get tired of it!
Gluten free brownies!! Yum!
And finallly..I love antique shopping. Of course, I rarely buy. But it’s just so fun to look.
February 28th, 2011 saat: 2:58 pm
Sorry to hear you were sick…definitely something going around! At least it looks like you got to enjoy some brownies 😉
February 28th, 2011 saat: 7:28 pm
Love the furry and blurred shot!
I have to try the egg in vinegar. 🙂
Old books speak to me too. I especially like old children’s books or school books with lots of old illustrations.

Gorgeous photos! That flower under the snow seems so wrong when it was 80 degrees here today.
March 1st, 2011 saat: 7:01 am
Great pictures. Please don’t be hard on yourself. I miss days all the time.
Have a blessed day♥
March 1st, 2011 saat: 2:43 pm
Great post. Those brownies look YUM!
March 1st, 2011 saat: 4:37 pm
I LOVE your Life photo… beautiful colors against the white. 🙂
March 1st, 2011 saat: 7:28 pm
Flowers, really? Even if they are under the snow…I’m jealous. And I want a brownie. 🙂 I love this 365 day thing I just started today, I have a feeling mine won’t actually be 365 either but we’ll see! 🙂
March 2nd, 2011 saat: 9:53 am
LOve love the one of the flower peeping up through the snow!
March 2nd, 2011 saat: 4:55 pm
Antique shopping, I feel I’m gonna lose it if I don’t go soon. Love old books, love love love them. What a treasure you have there!!
Hooray for sister time, and that egg project looks really cool. Can’t wait to see how it turns out! Your crocuses (I think?) look gorgeous! Love it when they’re peeking through the snow.
