It doesn't seem like I'm "up for the challenge" lately, eh?

LOL :) Well, we all get busy and it turned out to be a busier time lately for me & my family than I expected. I've been working on my Week in the Life project (click this link here, if you want to know more about that, hosted by awesome Ali Edwards). Egads, I keep forgetting....I still have to put my October 12 of 12 together too! Anyhoo, what I can post today are my We Spy:You Spy entries. I'm having to catch up...again. ;) So, without further ado...here they are - thanks for stopping by to look!

Something #35:

...tools
...my kitchen tools. I know knives shouldn't really be stored that way but we have limited storage. :)

Something #36:

...orange
...the orange pumpkin-shaped candy jar that I keep on my kitchen countertop. It's a Target dollar spot find...for $2.50.

Something #37:

...shadows
...our dog Lizzie. This was a fun challenge. The more pictures I shot, the more shadows I found. When I was showing the pictures to my son he pointed out the knot hole on the deck right about where her eye should be. Great spy, P2!

Again, thanks for looking! Are any of you going to be participating in Jessica Sprague's 'Stories in Hand' class? (Click the button to the right to go to Jessica's website, if you'd like to know more about it). I've been so busy that I haven't even signed up yet. I'll do that today though. I love seeing all the the creative things you've all been working on so leave a link to your stuff! Have a great weekend!

October's 12 of 12

**10/27 update...I finished! Scroll up (or click here) to see the layout & pictures :)

*10/24 update...egads, where does the time go?! I'm still working on my October edition of 12 of 12. Are any of you participating in it this month? Hopefully this weekend I'll get all caught up on my 12 of 12. You can still join in the 12 of 12 for October if you'd like to. See the link below for more info. :)

...I'm still putting together my 12 of 12. You can join in....even though it's the 14th :) If you happened to take a bunch of photos on the 12th, pick 12 and put a layout together (or just choose 12 from that day and post them at a photo-hosting site) or you could even do a 14 on the 14th. Or ;) maybe you'd like to join in next month. Click here...'12 of 12' and check out Susan's 12 of 12 blog.

Thanks for stopping by. :) Check back in a few days and I may have my 12 of 12 posted. (I'm still working on my Week in a Life challenge too.)

Stories in Hand

*Something I'd like to share:

This morning on Ali Edwards' blog, she posted about wonderful Jessica Sprague and her upcoming free -yay! free!- class called 'Stories in Hand'. Registration begins October 20th and you can register at Jessica's website.


(click picture to be taken to her site or click on the blog badge over on the right hand side).

As Jessica said on her blog, "Come, tell some stories. Make a cute project. Change your life."

Have a great day & a wonderful weekend :)

Happy Love Thursday :) Thanks for stopping by for a peek!

Happy autumn to all my creative friends out there! Hope everything is well in your little corner of the world. Thanks for stopping by my blog :)

The first

Just a little something I wanted to post. :) Happy Autumn...welcome to October.

We Spy : You Spy #34

...changes

Autumn is here, evident by the changing color of the leaves.


And then the breeze kicked up a little bit and made it's own changes...

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek! :) And, thanks to you who leave your nice comments when you've stopped by. I enjoy reading them. Have a great day!
