Wait, Where Did August Go?

If you've been here a while, you know I am way into fat mum slim's Photo A Day Challenge. Really, it's instagram… well maybe it just gives me something to think about when I'm folding the laundry. At any rate, here is my August shots, which I did all on instagram this month, because I love instagram…. but I already said that. Actually, I lost my camera, as you know, so I used the iPad a lot. Anyway... 

1. outside ~ in the sandbox! 2. one ~ One of many of my husbands Japanese books. 3. coin ~ the Indian Head $2.50 my MIL gave me. It was a pair of cuff links that belonged to a relative who past. Aunt Leila… I think…. My MIL had them made into these necklaces for her and I. I LOVE it! 
4. Where I sat ~ All Day! 5. Logo ~ The old Ford Dump truck we use here on the ranch. 6. Yep, I had lost it. What a shame… that I couldn't find it for almost the whole month… Because it was hiding in my pool bag!!!! 


7. 8 o'clock ~ the microwave. 8. glasses ~ my readers… that I never wear! 9. messy ~ my top shelf where I tuck all the craft stuff I don't want kids to get into.

10. ring ~ as in The Lord of The Rings. We are sharing the trilogy with our oldest daughter who is enjoying them for the first time! 11. Purple. 12. spoon ~ I love how that one turned out. 

13. Simple ~ Black Eyed Susan's on the side of the road at sunset… my kids hate that I am always pulling over to take pictures of stuff! 

14. Arrow ~ my Bean wanted to share her favorite necklace and I wanted to share my favorite sign.



15. Ready ~ for some luck!


16. Food ~ artichoke hearts! Yum!


17. Faces of the American Girl dolls in our household…. this picture totally creeps me out. But when I was a kid I always put my dolls in the closet when I slept. Dolls are just creepy to me.

The other face my 4 year old made with three shells and the arm of a rundown camp chair that forever lives in my yard.






18. inside ~ a bowl of blueberries! yum!





19. hole ~ in my son's toy wood…





20. Today, August 20th.





21. cool ~ our old ice cream parlor. (No Scream for Ice Cream!)




22. home ~ Yes, it's mine.


23. pair ~ of feet at the water park!




24. path     25. Fresh ~ baked     26. Dream ~ my dream come true (Adventure Man that is, but the trip we were on in this shot was a dream too), and the 26th was our anniversary!
27. Tap     28. Clock ~ Alarm ON! for school starts tomorrow!   29. Down ~ the road on my morning jog… with bear spray of course

30. Card ~ now in the mail for someone special!    31. Hidden ~ the toothbrush was hidden in the closet for some reason… 

Well, that's it. Thanks for letting me share! Now go take some pictures!

  1. I love pic 5 of the old Ford alot. When I looked at #17 I thought it was totally creepy...then I read your comment. LOL!

    I just started doing Fat Mum Slims list today. I use my tablet and it's a little harder (no camera either). Posting all the photos at the end of the month is a great idea!

    Happy Saturday Sharefest!

    1. I really enjoy it. I'm sure you will too, but remember, as Chantelle says, there is no fail! I've had a few misses some months and I figure, Oh well! Life gets busy!

  2. I miss some of your photos because I just see the FB group and they don't all appear there *~* Guess I need to step up my tec knowledge soI won't be missing out. This is such a fun creative contact. Faith even has her BFF doing it.

  3. Great pics! You really did a beautiful job. The collages are a nice touch as well. You have quite a talent for making ordinary things look extraordinary.

    1. Thank you, Laura! It's taken a few months to figure out how to display them best, so the post isn't a mile long, or the pictures too small to see. I think this way worked the best. Thanks for stopping by!
