10 on 10 – August

I’m pretty impressed that I have not missed a 10 on 10 since I started.  We had a quick and unexpected visit from my friend and step-monster, Carrie (AKA: Nonna). She is always fun to be around and has a great attitude that rubs off on me and helps keep me positive. I wish we lived closer! The kids and I had to finish up some back-to-school shopping, so Nonna wondered the outlet mall (she’s a pro) while we finished up. Laid back, fun day. Plenty of beauty in our …

10 on 10 – July

July 10 on 10 was a practically kid free Saturday. Which almost never happens. Very lazy. Jack and Emily have gone on a road trip with Emily’s Granny. We needed a sitter for Jack for a couple of days while we go to Denver for work and Granny took him on for a whole week. We’re pretty lucky. I’ve never been away from him for more than five days - I already miss him. Noah is trying to book himself up to avoid being home without his siblings. Kinda cute.

10 on 10 – June

June 10 on 10 was supposed to happen on a road trip to meet our friends in Dallas to watch Bingham. Instead it was a day around the house. Figures. I think I still pulled it out. Emily’s at camp and the boys hung out with me all day. I’ve been enjoying spending my summer with the kids. Lot’s of reading and learning going on . . . and playing.

10 on 10 – May

How is it already time for May’s 10 on 10? Yesterday was Mother’s Day and all my chores waited for me until today.  Another non eventful 10 on 10, but still fun as usual.

10 on 10 – April

Time for my April 10 on 10.  It was a boring Saturday of chores around the house, but we did end up with an unexpected babysitter and grabbed dinner in Gruene. Ordinary day – that’s the point, right?

10 on 10 – March

I almost forgot my March  10 on 10.  It was my sweetheart’s birthday and the kids and I had lots of fun things planned. Glad Alysha reminded me!

Background Noise

My advice for anyone with a camera . . .
Eliminate the background noise
 
You can solve the problem of photography background noise in two easy steps:
#1 – Pay Attention To Detail.
#2 – Move Yourself.
I’m a voyeur. Looking at pictures is one of my favorite things to do and I don’t even have to know the people in them. Sometimes I spend hours hopping from site to site looking at photos that catch my eye. Most of the photos I’m intrigued by are ordinary snapshots from everyday life. But, I also have …
