Scavenger Hunt Sunday {08.19.12}

Filed Under: Photography Tagged With: scavenger hunt sunday

How has your weekend been? It has been a pretty lazy one around here for once. We didn’t have anywhere we had to be so we laid around. I have a ton of cleaning and getting everything ready for Dustyn to start preschool the day after Labor Day but instead I just relaxed. I have a feeling I won’t get much done until my back starts feeling better. Two trips to the chiropractor and it is feeling a little bit better. He went over the x-rays I have scoliosis cause my spine curves to the right and my neck curve is no longer there. So we have a very aggressive schedule. Three times a week for a few weeks, then two times a week, then one time a week. Then we will reevaluate. It just stinks that it is so often and right now because we are in the process of refinancing and money has been tight. We have to do what we have to do.

On a brighter note I made a fall bucket list. It is really adorable! I can not wait for fall! You can download it below. If you are on instagram use #fallbucketlist and share what you are up to this fall.

You can click the photo to download the list.

Anyways moving onto my photos. Just like my house got neglected, my photos got neglected. They pretty well stink this week!

 Forest

Our forest we love walking through it. I also use it a lot for photo shoots, which is nice.

Morning Light

The other day I went out and took advantage of the morning light  and took some photos of the mushrooms in our yard.

Touch

Light as a feathers touch.

Newspaper

This one is a long stretch. We don’t get the newspaper here. My MIL and her hubby feed the wild animals this could be in the paper about why you shouldn’t feed wild animals. He he. Sorry that is all I could think of.

Coffee or Tea

My favorite coffee drink right now. Yumm!

That is all I have for you this week. Hopefully next week I will be feeling much better and my photos will be more fabulous!

Linking up with Scavenger Hunt Sunday, Little Bits of Happiness, A Rural Journal, Simple Things, Sunday Snapshot, Macro Monday, and then she snapped

    After years of suffering back/leg issues I finally caved to a chiro and found out I had 12% scoliosis too... had the same aggressive schedule for months... it was worth every penny! I am much better now and only go once every 6-8 weeks... though I just took a fall and now need to go again ... ugh... life is such a pain sometimes! ha ha! my fall left me with a sprained shoulder on top of all my regular back issues... sheesh! =) alas... it won't slow me down too much! =) we just refinanced too... so glad we were able to finally do that and lower our payments a bit... yikes... hope you find relief in that when it is over... also worth it!! =) anyway... love your vulture? pic... made me laugh out loud! great shot!! =) Hope you have a good week despite the crazy stuff life brings!! =)

    Love these Sarah- hope your back feels better soon. Great bucket list. I may need to alter it a bit- not a whole lot of acorns or leaf piles around these parts :) Maybe it will give us an excuse to get out of dodge for a few days.

    So sorry about your back -- I do hope the chiro treatments help. We are trying to refinance too -- along with some other expensive things -- not fun. Oh, and can you add "take a nap" to your cute bucket list? :)

    Oh drat - I hope you feel better, my Friend. And taking photos with a bum back is kinda painful! Although, your so-called bad photos are still stunning. That butterfly one - HELLOOO! AWESOME. ;D

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶 It Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.
