Day 102 - Birthdays

As I told everyone before September is Birthday Month in our family.....My Brothers birthday was last Wednesday the 22nd, my Moms is on the 29th and right around the corner is October and my Dad's is the 2nd.....

So we had a collaborated effort of a family BBQ......my brothers smoked some ribs....my mom made the potatoes, corn, Chinese cabbage salad .......... I made a another salad....Yum Dinner was fantastic......

The Flavour

My ohhhh so scruffy looking brothers...believe it or not they are twins.....

 And me....my daughter took this for me....Thx Girl

Day 101 - Tye Dye

My daughter and her friends spent the afternoon yesterday Tye Dying......and here are two of the many shirts and tank tops they did......



I think they did a great job.....

Scavenger Hunt Sunday

It is Sunday again and this is starting to become one of my favourite things to enter...Scavenger Hunt Sunday....you are given 5 words each week and have to interpret them any way you want....it is interesting to see how others interpret them too....if you would like to see more please head over to Ramblings and Photos......

The words this week are as follows:

Miniature:

This is one of the last flowers we have in our garden and they never really bloomed this year with the cold snap that we experienced in September.....but they are miniature, I call them my cauliflower flowers.


Water Droplet:

I do not have a green thumb for plants inside normally I kill all house plants....but I am proud to say that I have kept 3 alive for almost a year...this one is even getting new growth on it....I had just finished watering it and couldn't help but see all the "Water Droplets on it".




Bedhead:

My original idea for bed head was to take one of my sister manikin heads from school and stick it on my bed but with the last couple weeks of school and exam writing for her she forgot....so we have a nice picture of the bedhead that I have every morning.....there are advantages and disadvantages to having short hair...first it takes less than 10 minutes to do it.....but you don't have a choice as it generally is all over the place in the morning.......it  has to be done everyday...some days I do miss my ponytails....






Colorful:
The world of arts and crafts with colorful sparkles






 
Eyes:
 
I was really trying to think outside the box on this one and after a recent trip to the dollar store for dye......my daughter and her friends were Tye dying some shirts....while in the craft isle I came across a package of google eyes and wahhh laa...Eyes...
 
 





 
 
These are the words for next week

1. Golden

2. Smell

3. Fruit

4. Simple

5. Sports

Please play along

WELCOME FALL

Day 98 + Black & White Wednesday

While driving home from Sherwood Park I always try and make it fun....it can get pretty boring driving that same road all the time...my boys can either choose to take the regular way home down the highway or shortcut one or two....which is basically the back roads home....they get to take turns choosing.....tonite as we were heading home on short cut 1....I couldn't help but notice all the bails in the field....the warm weather....we actually saw the sun today....YES.....and the beautiful colors...needless to say it took us a while to get home...lol...but my kids love the adventures.

I also had my wide-angle lense with me which is a lense I have not had a ton of opportunity to use......it gives you a wider perspective on things :)....lol

The Road Home


I am also entering the above photo is Black & White Wednesdays

The Fields


Different Focus






And apparently I can't count

Good thing I have someone who can....lol after looking at my 365 Day Challenge I realized I had done 94-95 together and did another 95 again...so we are closer than I thought to 100...lol

Day 97 - Tea

Who doesn't love a nice warm cup of tea...there are so many different flavours out there it can be hard to choose....I believe I have just about tried them all....In my house growing up my parents never drank coffee...so we always had tea, plain no sugar maybe a splash of milk...especially on Sundays with dessert while watching Walt Disney.....

If I had to pick a few of my favourites....I think my top 5 picks would have to be:

1) Mint Green Tea (Any green tea for that matter)
2) Vanilla Earl Grey
3) Chai (Especially if it is homemade)
4) Black Tea
5) Raspberry White Tea

What's Your Favourite???
