A Moment a Day...

a photo blog by Brandy Young

I think it’s bloggin’ time again…

Well it was a crazy week so taking pictures was a little more hassle than normal. My 64 and 52.5 pics were taken today… I don’t like leaving them to the last day. But I am happy with them so I guess that’s what counts! So here we go…

Day 227…It was a Littlest Pet Shop invasion I tell you!! ;)
I went into the living room to look around and find some inspiration for my 365 and 64 pics and came upon this LPS parade! Too funny! The older ones still have the magnets in them…I found it quite hilarious seeing them clinging to the edge of the fireplace wall!

Week #33…Home…I had this idea in my head all week but never had the time to put it into action. Last summer when we went to visit RV I took several Polaroids. When I saw the upcoming theme “Home” for the group I decided that even though we have lived in PV since 2001, minus this last year, RV will always be home.

sixty-four colors ~ white…I had absolutely NO plan for this week. I was not finding any inspiration around me at all…the busy hectic week didn’t help. But white is white…I just wasn’t feeling it. So I walked around my living room and tried to find some…I like what I found…I am not a huge reader but I do like a good book from time to time. Even though it is taking me months to read Inkspell! :/

August 14/15…Yes I still have to throw these in here…I really need to go get a craft knife blade so I don’t get behind!

Day 226…I have been wanting to take a pic of this sign since I saw Hobo Matt’s pic awhile back and never stopped to take it. Then I noticed someone had added a new nose! It’s now three dimensional! Hard to see it in this pic though.

Day 225…Ok…thought I forgot to take a pic today. Then remembered I had taken some at the kids school. And I also remembered I had put my camera on RAW…so I overplayed with this one in Camera RAW…heh. It’s a bit too much LOL!

August 13…I like these more detailed ones…They look a lot cooler!

Day 224…Thursday evening I found out there was supposed to be a meteor shower in the wee hours of morning. I’m sure everyone knew about it but me. Sometimes I think I live in a bubble! ;) Well it wasn’t that spectacular from my viewing point. I did see a few that were pretty cool and managed to catch one little guy.

Day 223…Sometimes I just don’t have anything interesting to say about my pics…this would be one of them… :D

August 11…This has to be one of my most favorite ones so far! It’s so cute and happy! I did mess up the nose but it’s still cute!

Day 222…

August 10…

Day 221…First day of school! Oh she looks so little walking across that big playground!

August 9…

Day 220…Some days it’s the last thing I do before I go to bed and then you get crap like this to look at… ;)

August 7/8…

Your sort of weekly dose of photos…

from me!!!

Day 219…Bountiful Baskets…So this morning I woke up at 7:11. “Hey Babe…I think I hear your alarm.” or something like that. I use my cell phone as my alarm and I am finding that having it on the floor on vibrate really does me no good. I don’t even hear it vibrate. But luckily Chaz had woken up and saw that I was still in bed so he kindly woke me up. Why on earth would I be getting up so early on a Saturday morning?! Today I went to pick up our first Bountiful Basket. It’s a neat little (or not so little) program run by volunteers to bring healthy fruits and veggies in at a lower cost to you. (Or so they say). It was interesting. I don’t know if I will do it again be cause I am not really sure it was that great of a deal. You be the judge because getting up at 7 after not falling asleep til around 1:30 or 2:00 has left my brain with out the functionality to figure such things out. ;)

Day 218…Castle Golf Family Fun Park…I found this in a box of pencils the other day. The family fun park was closed long ago. We were so bummed when we heard it would be closing. And when they said it was going away they really meant it! They tore out the goofy golf, the batting cages and even the castle!! This is all there is left of it…well in my home anyway….

August 6, 2010…Awww…look at the cute little froggy…

Day 217…Do not attempt to dive into the 2 foot water…you will be electrocuted and your head will explode!! Take heed, don’t break you head! ;)

Always catching up…

But I think I like it that way…It’s a lot more fun to see a weeks worth of pics in a post than a day at a time. Maybe a new blog title is in order…Weekly moments… ;) too bad I own the amomentaday.com domain. :) It’s still daily so it still fits…

Day 210…

July 29…

Day 209…Mmmmmm…I made apple cobbler this day. It was yummy! Not the best apples for it but it’s what we had. I keep telling everyone to remind never to buy Red Delicious apples ever again. Definitely not my favorite, or anyone else in this house for that matter.

sixty-four colors ~ golden rod…Not my best sixty-four shot…but sometimes this whole 64, 52.5, 365 business just gets old I don’t feel like putting in the effort. :/

Day 208…So the new town library is not he prettiest building you’ll ever see…but it makes for some neat architectural shots.

July 27…

Day 207…Watch out!! My daughter was quite worried it was going to get me if I got too close!

Week #31…Season ~ Summer…A more accurate summer picture right now would have been a shot of all the dark clouds that have been covering the valley for the last couple weeks. Or the wonderful rain that those clouds bring. Or the lightning that always accompanies those! I love the summer monsoons! But I also have a fascination with these strange plants you see popping up all over! The Agave americana…or better known as the Century Plant. They are pretty cool!

July 26…

Day 206…A nice crisp nectarine is my favorite!

July 24/25…

Day 205…A close up of the above Century Plant…

July 23…

Day 204…I was out taking pictures of the bees in this bush in our back yard and I realizes there were several bees of another type hiding out in the bush that I had totally over looked! And further evidence of my lack of observance…I had no idea that little crab spider was hiding out right in front of me too! Not until I started looking at the pics on my computer.
