Week 21 - Michelle

I think I got my directions mixed up!?  For some reason I was thinking there was an In and Out included in this week's list.  Oh well, I'm always running in 2 different directions anyways . . .

UP

Pinterest has some great ideas.  Check out these pumpkin seeds sprouting!

 In?

This was my "In", but I'll throw it in here anyways. 

I think Cosmo had a stomach ache this day because she stole pizza and marshmallows from out football watching party.  She looks rather sad . . .

 Left, Right, Forward

The Kindergarten took a field trip to the pumpkin patch.  It's the best field trip ever!  This hay maze is the most fun!

Backwards

I was sitting there at Freebirds eating my taco lunch and blurted out "backwards"!!

This is their logo.

 Down

I'll save the best for last.  My kids were appalled when they saw Grandpa had a wolverine golf club cover.  After that football loss, it needed to be destroyed.

Down with the Wolverines!!!

Week Twenty-One: Ashli

I did not take that many photos this week, but somehow I managed to get all seven for the first time (last week didn't count since they were from the archives)  We had the amazing and unexpected opportunity to go to Game three of the ALCS last Tuesday in Detroit.  What a game! I used my zoom to get the first three photos I've included in my blog.  They weren't the sharpest due to zoom, lighting and movement, but you can definitely see who's who. 

Left:

Here is left hander Prince Fielder taking a swing.

Right:

My Favorite Tiger - Right Handed Pitcher, Justin Verlander.  He is awesome! 

Down:

The view down to the field from our seats.  It was a long way down there.

Up:

My boys love to play with the neighbor girls.  This day they had filled the trampoline with leaves.  What fun! 

Forward:

Since Caleb learned how to ride his bike without the training wheels, it's his favorite thing to do. 

Backward:

Her is me, backwards.  :-) 

Diagonal:

My little tree hugger. 

That's it.  Hope you enjoyed them. 

Week 21 - Amy

LEFT

Head "left" to the underground tours.

RIGHT

Exercising my "right" to vote.

UP

They were working on refinishing the side of this building, so I took a picture of the worker "up" on the scaffolding.

DOWN

A "down" feather "down" on the ground.

FORWARD

Facing "forward" to sing at the Children's Museum's Oktoberfest.

BACKWARD

Tirion, aka Rapunzel, giving a "backward" glance.

DIAGONAL

This is Winn playing a sitar at the Farmer's Market. A sitar must be held on a "diagonal" to be played. He's a rather eccentric indie  musician. The look on his face paired with his posture cracks me up. It just screams, "I'm gonna getcha!"

Week 22- the list

Kind of a random list this week, hope that it works for all of us! :)

Tradition

Black

Strange

Tricks

Treats

Harvest

Child's point of view

Week 20- Theresa

So, I'm a bit late at posting my pics from last week.. better late then never! :)

Color:

Our church hosted a family night at a local apple/pumpkin farm, 

the sunset provided us with a beautiful sky.. Aidan thought it looked like cotton candy!

Wild:

We have been having some very strange weather here lately, 

rain, wind, hail and some sunshine thrown in too! 

My husband got this shot of a double rainbow while he was outside making dinner!

Snack Time:

Went to the mall with my mom one night last week & we stopped for a pretzel, yum! 

Happy:

Our girl LOVES baths, she was especially happy with her recent tub time!

In the car:

I run a lot of errands in the morning while Aidan is in school, 

Adalyn is usually asleep when we finally return home!

Creepy:

Noticed this just hatched spider's nest on my mom's side doorknob.. reminded me of Charlotte's Web, 

I was in awe of all the teeny-tiny spiders!

Week 21 - Melissa

 

Left

My "Lefty"

Right

So using road signs is an easy out with directions as a subject matter but these signs have always seemed silly to me.  There are SO many! 

Up

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ABOVE:  The sun coming up.  With the counterpoint concept in mind with the telephone poles and lines.

RIGHT:  The leaves are still up on this tree.  I love how the sun brightened the color of the red leaves.

 

 

 

Down

The leaves on this tree are down.  I took this with Aisha's "Clouds are our friends" concept in mind.

Forward

  Aren't they cute?

Backward

Looking backward at Aunt Mel.

Diagonal

 

 

 

The wind blew the flames (and smoke) to the left diagonally at my sister in-law's family party on Saturday night.  I like the flames in the picture to the right but the sparks in the picture above turned out just as I hoped.
