Day 03 - A picture of the cast from your favorite show -
When this show first aired I LOVED LOVED LOVED it… I’m still a huge fan and can’t miss an episode but I found myself a bit bored with some of the recent programs… however, the last 3 or so shows have been great and I’m glad to see things getting back to why I enjoy watching each week.
Day 04 - A picture of your night-
My living room, Ryan eating chicken nuggets, while princess our “bassador” is waiting for Ryan to either drop some or give her a nugget so it looks like he ate all of his food..Ryder staring at the ceiling fan…and toys/crafts and who knows what else Ryan has pulled out and not put away (which means I will end up doing it), laying on my carpet and the chest…I wouldn’t change it for the world;)
I love the photo of me...of course when I was forced to take it many, many years ago I could have killed my grandfather, but now I think it's great ;) I was about 10 or 11 and like many other kids, I tried to cut my bangs with this being the results... To top it off,
my grandmother's brother and wife where in town so I have a bunch of photos with my new hair style...
I remember my grandmother as one of the nicest and sweetest person I know, someone who also stood up for me and was like a mother to me. She was really one of the only female role models in my young life and those years I believe had a huge influence on the person I am today. If I could go back in time I would trade places with her so she could have a day free from her medical problems and enjoy being the person I remember as I child.
I still need to look at the cake to determine my age but I’m guessing I was 2 or 3.This picture is of my twin brother’s birthday party at my grandmother’s house. I can remember the cake had Cowboys and Indians on it and I blew out the candles so my brother got really mad at me ;) Hey I was the baby...that’s just my role right? I was told later that whenever my brothers had a birthday up until I was about 6 or so, I would receive a gift as well because I couldn’t understand why they got presents and I didn’t…maybe I was a bit spoiled back then ;) P.S. I don’t think they got gifts on my birthday…
Here is a poem a friend and I wrote many years ago that I would like to share, I’m not sure why I remember it, but I do and I’m glad for that:
If I die tomorrow night at least I will not go with fright,
Because I know in heaven there is nothing but love,
I will not be floating in a cloud,
But praising my lord God aloud,
So I pray with you every hour,
That God will grant you holy power,
To walk in faith in his way,
All these thing I pray for,
And hope they all come true.
Well it’s not really a room. When we first moved to our house just shy of 6 years ago, I took this photo of our pool through the Banana trees...and I love how it came out!
As much as a pain the pool can be, it’s sure is nice to sit on the deck and watch the kids play ;)))
Sorry I’ve been so bad about keeping up with my 31 day photo challenge, but the summer is keeping me busy ;)…hopefully I’ll have this challenge done before the end of the year! LOL
