Scavenger Hunt Sunday

Filed Under: Photography Tagged With: scavenger hunt sunday

First of all I want to say Happy Veteran’s Day to our Veterans. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service and sacrifice.

Also happy 2 1/2 birthday to Carsyn. Can not even believe he will be 3 in six months! So crazy!

This week is another week from my mini Christmas shoots. You can see some from last week here. I also shared a bunch on my facebook page. Which I am very close to 600 followers. Eeekkk! Now onto the items this week.

 

Nature

Nothing like jumping on a bed out in nature. His shirt matches the theme pretty good too.

 Vintage or Retro

This bed is vintage. That counts right?

Whimsical

I think this photo is so whimsical with this chair, her pearl necklace and tutu. So adorable!! I love taking her photos every month.

Cooking

I cooked the cookies she is sneaking!

Week’s Best

This was my favorite capture this week. I caught him right in motion. It looks like he is levitating! So awesome. I got a great picture of the boys together but that will have to wait because I think it is going to be our Christmas card photo!

That is all I have for you. Sorry I have not had time to visit you all lately. Hopefully after this busy Christmas season I can start blog visiting again. I miss being able to see what you all are up to! Hope you have a great Sunday and don’t forget to thank a Veteran.

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

Plus, he researched for hours how to do ceramic coating so now the paint is protected and it should be easier to keep clean. The photo does not do it justice. It’s super slick and shiny.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
