Photos of the Week: March 19th 2022

 I had a lot of fun with our prompts this week!  And I'm pretty proud of myself that for the second week in a row I mostly used my big camera and even remembered to bring my photo ball with me. 


– Front Yard – Quarterly-- Our front yard complete with shed/blacksmith shop and old generator. 



– Propped-- Evan with his chin propped in his hand.




– Starts with C-- This adorable chipmunk seen on our hikes.


– Through-- Marsh seen through the lens ball.



Your Choice-- This leaf imprint in the snow

    Oh, that is such a great picture of Evan! And I love the leaf print. I think you need to do a post (or point me towards a post you've already written) about your photo ball. You get the most fun pictures with it.

      I don't think I have ever written a post about my photo ball... that's a great idea though!

    Hello dear!
    All photos are great. Each photo has something in it. Each photo is a precious moment, a souvenir :)

      I am having so much fun with it. I'm trying to get into the habit of using it at least once a week now.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mai...

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Image
Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing. Meet this month's co-hosts! Across the Blvd | Purple Hues & Me This Autoimmune Life | Our Unschooling Journey Domestic Deadline | Sew Crafty Crochet Stone Cottage Adventures | Sum of Their Stories | Two Chicks & a Mom I bought the candy cane wreath base and a few rolls of mesh (not knowing how many I'd need I bought waaay to many; I only ended up using one white roll and one red roll. Using some chenille stems I already had on hand I attached the mesh to the wreath base trying to alternate the whit...

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my ...

Local independent stores/crafters The mall--typically the end stores like Macy's, JC Penney, etc.  For the Home/household goods: Target Amazon JCPenney The mall I went shopping in this July for my birthday For Clothing (for me!): Those same end stores at the mall Stitch Fix Amazon Clothing for my guys: Carhartt (for my husband and oldest son) Old Navy (for Evan) Kohl's/Amazon (for Alec) For fun: Stampin' Up! Michael's craft stores Hobby Lobby  I hope you'll join us next month when we look at ...
