This or That

November 17, 2011 by Elaine

Back in May I met Deb at a little, local blogger get-together.  She’s a really sweet and fun-loving person and she takes amazing photographs.

I was SO excited to see that she started this carnival called This or That Thursday some weeks ago, and knew that I would love to link up.

Not only does it inspire me to get out and take pictures but I’m also in so much admiration of her abilities and want to be like her when I grow up. 🙂

Thanks for the inspiration Deb and for hosting This or That every week!

It has been unseasonably warm here this week.  I wore a sleeveless shirt and a skirt out and about today.  And the mosquitoes are in full force IN MID NOVEMBER.

My children spent the afternoon driving cars, flying planes and writing and reading their own comic books.  And I took pictures with my new camera.

Life is good.

Albeit a tad WARM for my taste the week before Thanksgiving…

wishing they made these shoes in my size… 

yes, his shirt is FILTHY, you can thank pre-school

His comic book was called “Don’t De so Stupid”.  Oh my.  Although he has a point there…

    This weather is killing me. This is supposed to be the best weather of the year, but it is not living up to its responsibilities.

    Super cute kiddos, but you already knew that.

    You are too kind! I really enjoyed our bloggy meet up too! Your photos are looking awesome. You really have an eye for composition. Of course, you have an unfair advantage because your kids are so darn cute! I love that first one of K with her turned around and smiling.
