You Capture

My life is not all that interesting. Yet, I really like blogging. And, I really do like taking pictures. So, I thought maybe I would blog about something other than what happened today. I've decided to participate in a weekly photography challenge, hosted by Beth at I Should Be Folding Laundry. I even added the button to my blog, if you are interested in doing ths your self. All the rules are there. It's not something you have to do every week...I like that. Here goes...

The theme this week is still life.

My first thought when I hear still life was fruit. :)
I happened to have some in my kitchen next to this adorable photo.
(The stickers are on the apples because we were studying different kinds of apples and I needed to remember the names. I am really loving homeschooling!)


I like to leave our birthday cards out for a while.

I had to capture a rare moment of Tate being still. :) This boy is on the go all day long...usually starting at 6:00 a.m.! Lately he has been enjoying some time in the sun room (which he calls his "work"). Suzie (who so needs a blog) had given us a book of stencils a while back. He will spend a good 30 minutes working on those stencils...thank you Suzie!!!

Your boys are so cute!! I love the last one - I have a couple that are hard to keep 'still', too!

Great photos. Your boys are adorable. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with boys who wake up at 6!!

How old is your oldest? Are you just starting homeschooling? We're going to be homeschooling but I guess we'll officially start in a year or two.

Thanks for stopping by!

Great captures!

I thought about capturing my boys sleeping-they also are on the move constantly!

And we'll soon have displays of b-day cards here, too. I love leaving them up for a while!
