Z's end-of-the-year violin chapel. I can't believe she's played for 2 full years already!
A 2011 Challenge
Last year, a bunch of my friends the blogs I follow challenged themselves by taking a picture everyday in 2010. I'm not sure where the "resolution" came from, but I enjoyed looking at their life through their camera lens. And have decided to try it myself this year. I think it'll be a good way to get more familiar with my DSLR camera (which I currently use as if it's a "Point-and-Shoot") and will hopefully help me get back to blogging without the pressure of having to write more than a sentence or two. I can't promise that the pictures will be POSTED every day, but they will be TAKEN each day.
UPDATE: (October 2011) My laptop died back in March. It took a looooooong time to get it back. I'm working on uploading pictures I took while I was computer-less. But I'll be honest...there definitely wasn't 1 picture a day. Maybe next year...

6/12/11 - Dangerous Fun
The kids wanted me to take pictures of them jumping on the Razors. To catch the air, I had to lay on the ground and they scooted straight at me. It was slightly scary...but a great lesson in shutter speed!

4/26/11 - Pinewood Derby...Girls' Style
As a young girl, I went to countless Pinewood Derby events with my Dad (he worked for Christian Service Brigade) and I loved looking at all the paint jobs and different cut outs. Never in my life could I imagine how different Pinewood Derby is when it's girls designing the cars. That's Z's car...#19.
4/20/11 - Great Place for Homework
It was just too nice a day for Z to be stuck inside doing homework this afternoon. Why not make you're own homework spot?

4/10/11 - Shootin' Hoops
S spent the day putting up a new hoop in our driveway. Z was the first to take a shot!

3/23/11 - Exhaustion
After 2 straight days of water rides and not nearly enough sleep, the kids are ready for a sleepy car ride home from Great Wolf Lodge.

3/17/11 - Happy St. Patrick's Day
Somebody forgot to pick out an outfit this morning with green in it. So, she had her mother draw a green shamrock on her hand. (She clearly needs lotion, too...)

2/27/11 - She Shoots...
It's only fair that I take some shots of Z playing basketball since I took some of T. The problem is, she doesn't shoot nearly as much as he does, so this is one of the few I did get...a foul shot!

2/1/11 - Really Mom?
You know it's been a snowy winter when you have to "make" the kids go play outside on a snowday. "Not thrilled", to say the very least!

1/17/11 - Baking Cookies
This was after "playing spa", playing in the snow, having lunch, watching a movie, dressing American Girl Dolls, eating popcorn, drinking hot chocolate, snacking on nutella...
Where do they get the energy?

1/12/11 - She's an Angel
I realize the majority of my pictures have been of snow, but that's about all we've got going on. And I enjoy the natural sunlight pictures with my DSLR more than the indoor pictures. Any tips on how to fix that?
I'll also work on getting more shots of T...

1/6/11 - ...Not easy at all!
Part of taking a picture every day (a BIG part, I might add) is that I'm really going to need to remember to bring my camera places. Otherwise, this blog (and 2011 resolution) are going to have to change to an iPhone picture a day blog!
I mean, really, what mom doesn't photographer her daughter's first ever basketball practice? I'm a slacker...

1/4/11 - Music to My Ears
She is not always excited to practice, but the fact that Mom was going to take pictures of her sure helped "encourage" her.
